8 0

"The lithosphere is subdivided into tectonic plates. The upper part of the lithosphere which chemically reacts to the atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere through the soil forming process is called the pedosphere. The lithosphere is underlain by the athenosphere which is the weaker, hotter, deeper part of the upper mantle."

Answer :

A system is a collection of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent parts creating a complicated body. So if lithosphere is a method then the top mantle-stratosphere, coat, tectonic plates, volcanoes on a shell, hills, fields and other geological characteristics are its segments. There will be inter communications among these segments. For example, the displacement of tectonic plates forms ridges, drains, produces volcanoes, earthquakes,etc. It affects people because people live on the surface of the planet i.e., on a crust and the crustal characteristics will change the way of life, gives sources for the survival of humans, the crustal changes will create damage and loss of human lives.

Answer:

b.Confining pressure

Explanation:

They are formed by the confining heat and pressure that they derive from the physical and chemical alteration of the igneous and the sedimentary rocks. The rocks undergo es a regional metamorphism and involve a larger body of rocks that occur over a wider area.

Typically are associated with mountain building and orogenic events and display a distinct band of mineral and colors, which is called foliation.
The force that drives these rocks to the various forms are those of the plate tectonics and includes the separating rides and the subducting zone along wit the continental collisions.

The North Carolina School for the Deaf launched an agricultural education program for the inclusion of the specially abled children in the mainstream agricultural education program.

Explanation:

The State Superintendent of Education specially-abled children believed that if agricultural education program is introduced in the curriculum, more than 90% of the state's children would attend public schools.

The reason the agricultural education program was introduced in the 'North Carolina School for the Deaf' was that Mr. J. E. Swearingen had served in the 'South Carolina School for the Deaf and Blind' as a teacher before getting elected as the Superintendent and he believed that the specially-abled children should also get to learn modern agriculture.

For the introduction of this program, they chartered an FFA chapter because back then, FFA was the only dedicated organization with a reliable agenda for such a program to be implemented.

What is the term used for the removal and transport of sediment on the earth's surface? magmatism mechanical weathering chemical

natulia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is erosion

Explanation:

Magmatism refers to the positioning of magma on the outer surface and within the layers of a terrestrial planet which on cooling solidifies into igneous rocks.
Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking of big rocks into tiny or smaller pieces. It is basically a process of conversion of big rocks into sediments thus leading to the formation of soil.
Chemical Weathering is the process of breaking down of big rocks into tiny pieces by chemical reactions instead of mechanical processes.
Erosion is the process of removal of soil, sediments and dissolved substance from one location and transporting it to another location on earth crust.
Metamorphism is the process of change in the structure or com[position of a rock by the action of pressure, temperature or other natural forces.
