Answer:

1. D. Evaporation

2. A. A closed lake has no outlet stream.

3. C. The angle of the slope

4. C. Granite

Explanation:

1. The process through which water changes its state from liquid to gaseous is known as evaporation. A source of energy is required for this process to occur, energy that is provided by solar heat in this case. The opposite process in which water changes state from gas to liquid, is known as condensation. Precipitation is the process in which the condensed water reaches the Earth’s surface under the force of gravity. During infiltration, water on the ground surface enters the soil.  

2. A closed lake is defined by the lack of any outflow. Thus, any water that does not evaporate, will remain in this type of lake indefinitely.

3. The only criterion not used to describe a mass movement event is the angle of the slope. For such an event, the type of motion is the most important characteristic together with the physical characteristics of the material.

4. Granite is a highly consolidated material and thus it has a very high integrity. The other materials listed have inferior characteristics.

5. Soil erosion is a displacement process that occurs naturally though the action of water and wind. On a steep slope, no soil formation occurs, because, due to gravity, all the eroded material will be transported to another location. Thus, at the slope’s location, no soil formation occurs.

Helen [10]
Table 1: The horizontal pulling forces (F) and resulting acceleration (a) for the cart.



The cart experiences no motion when there is 0.1 N of horizontal force, so F=0 in this case. When one uses Newton's Second Law to find the acceleration caused by each force, it becomes clear that every row in the chart represents a horizontal force of approximately F=20 N. The best fit for the missing value is F=-30N.

The front leg of a cat, the front flipper of a dolphin, and the wing of a bat have the same structure and order of bones. These
Kay [80]

Answer:

The bones are homologous structures

Explanation:

Homologous structures are the structure which are found similar in appearance in different organisms.

The homologous structures in different organism shows that they shared a common ancestor or they diverged from a common ancestor during course of evolution that is these homologous structures are the result of the divergent evolution.

In the given question, the bat, dolphin and the cat shows the same structure of bone which indicates that they have evolved from a common ancestor and is true as they all belong to mammals.

Thus, the bones are homologous structures is correct.
