Answer:C) either runs off to form rivers or filters down into underground aquifers

Explanation:Precipitation is any form of moisture which falls to the earth. This includes rain, snow, hail and sleet. Precipitation occurs when water vapour cools. When the air reaches saturation point (also known as condensation point and dew point) the water vapour condenses and forms tiny droplets of water.

In meteorology, precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that falls under gravity from clouds. The main forms of precipitation include drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, ice pellets, graupel and hail. ... Short, intense periods of rain in scattered locations are called "showers."

How many of the products or foods you use daily come from Asia’s many resources, industries, and ecosystems? Give examples of on
Alex

Answer:

<em>Many of the products I use are from Asia's resources, especially food. </em>

<em> TWO EXAMPLES: rice (comes from Thailand) and fish sauce (aka "nouc mam") that comes from Vietnam. </em>

<em>The utilization of Asia’s natural resources has depended, to a large extent, not only on the development of technology but also on political circumstances. Thus, until the end of World War II and the beginning of the process of decolonization in Asia, most Asian countries were not free to develop their own natural resources independently and without reference to the economic interest of a colonial power. Cultural attitudes also have affected the utilization of resources. In India cultural taboos prohibit the slaughter of cattle either for food or to conserve resources when the animals are no longer productive.</em>

If the earth is 4.6 billion years old, why is the oldest ocean floor only 180 million years old?
borishaifa [10]

the oldest ocean floor is only 180 million years old, because the oldest crust is destroyed at subduction zones.

<h3>What are subduction zones?</h3>

According to NOAA, tectonic plates are fragments of the Earth's hard outer layer that steadily travel across the surface of the globe over millions of years (opens in new tab). (This is a fundamental principle of the theory of plate tectonics, which holds that pieces of the Earth's crust slide across the lower mantle and carry continents with them.) According to the U.S. Geological Survey(opens in new tab), the Earth's crust and the top part of the mantle, a thick, heated layer under the crust, make up that outer layer, also known as the lithosphere (USGS). This lithosphere material curls downward into the heated mantle during subduction zones, when two tectonic plates collide and one slides beneath the other.
