Lets do numbering of the labels to make labelling clear.

1. The Colorado River carves land in Arizona to form the Grand Canyon.

2. Cracks form in a sandstone wall surrounding a house.

3. A marble statue near the science museum is changing color due to rainfall.

4. After a rainstorm, soil and rock pieces litter the roadways.

5. The sand dunes in the Sahara Desert are changing shape.

Answer:

Weathering:

2. Cracks form in a sandstone wall surrounding a house.

3.A marble statue near the science museum is changing color due to rainfall.

Erosion:

1. The Colorado River carves land in Arizona to form the Grand Canyon.

4. After a rainstorm, soil and rock pieces litter the roadways.

5. The sand dunes in the Sahara Desert are changing shape.

Explanation:

Weathering and erosion, in both the processes rocks are broken down into particles but both the processes are different from each other. Weathering can be physical, chemical or biological process in which rock particles degrade without any movement while erosion is purely a movement of sediments in which particles move from one place to another under the influence of water and wind.

So, on the basis of this difference we can classify each label to the correct location:

<u>Weathering (no movement of particles after degradation):</u>

2. Cracks in a sandstone wall of a house.

3. Changing color of marble statue due to rainfall.

<u>Erosion (Movement of particles from one place to another):</u>

1. Formation of Grand Canyon, when the Colorado River carves land in Arizona.

4. Soil and rock pieces litter on roadways after rainstorms.

5. Changing shape of dunes in sahara desert.

Too much logging in the oyamel fir forests could lead to the eastern monarch butterfly going extinct because _______. a. the ent
olganol [36]

Too much logging in the oyamel fir forests could lead to the eastern monarch butterfly going extinct because <u>the entire population of the species spends winter in oyamel fir forests.</u>

<u>Why it is the correct option:</u>

a. The oyamel fir forests serve as the winter home for the eastern monarch butterflies. The entire population of monarch butterflies moves to oyamel fir forests in Mexico during winters to protect themselves from the freezing cold temperatures of their natural, breeding habitat. So, too much logging of the oyamel fir trees will destroy the winter habitat of these butterflies, and hence will lead to the decline in their population.

<u>Why the other options are incorrect:</u>

b. the butterflies breed in the oyamel fir trees is an incorrect option because the monarch butterflies breed in their natural habitats in the US.

c. the winters are too cold in oyamel is an incorrect option because these butterflies move to oyamel forests to protect themselves from cold.

d. the butterflies feed on the oyamel fir trees is an incorrect option because the monarch butterflies feed on milkweed.

Explanation:

The pharynx, which is sometimes referred to as the throat, is the cone-shaped muscular tube that links the oral and nasal cavity to the larynx and oesophagus. The pharynx, which serves as a passage for movement of food from the mouth to the esophagus and also as an airway, is divided into three parts, namely: the nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx.

The oropharynx is the part that receives both air and food. It is the middle part of the pharynx (throat) found at the back of the soft palate of the mouth and also underneath the nasopharynx.
