Nostrana [21]3 years ago

Roderick described everything in the region as a silurian in age because the rocks were either metamorphic or barren sedimentary layers and he had little fossil data to countermand or support. While with Charles he suggested that movement along low angle reverse faults , which the fault plane is parallel to the bedding plane , where it had brought schists from east to west , overriding younger sedimentary strata.

Jupiter has 67 moons, more than any other body in the solar system. What physical attribute of Jupiter causes it to have so many
Harrizon [31]

The correct answer is - it's mass.

Jupiter is the biggest planet in our Solar System, but only the biggest, also it has the biggest mass by far from all the planets. Because of its very big mass Jupiter has a very strong gravitational pull. The strong gravitational pull contributes to the attraction and keeping of lots of bodies that can not escape it, instead they revolve around the planet. These objects, or space bodies, that the gravitational pull of the planet managed to trap, became the moons, or rather natural satellites, of Jupiter.

Which items are described by the geographic theme of human-environmental interaction? A.The Pyrenees Mountains form the border b
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

B. The Channel Tunnel connecting the United Kingdom and France reduced travel time between these nations

E. Land has been cleared to make room for France's famous vineyards

F. A highway through Mount Blanc connects Italy and France

Explanation:

One of the five themes of geography is the human-environmental interaction. The human-environmental interaction basically means that the humans and the environment interact with each other and affect each other, sometimes in positive manner, sometimes in negative manner. There are many examples for this geographic theme across the globe.

The Channel Tunnel between the UK and France is an underwater tunnel. Its purpose is to make the traveling easier and faster between the two nations. It has been built in the sea waters, and fortunately it is not having any negative impacts on the environment.

France is one of the biggest producers of vine in the world. In order to have the amount of grapes needed for France to produce lot of vine it needs lot of agricultural land. This has been accomplished by clearing the land from the wild vegetation over time. While this has had a very positive impact on the economy of France, it has had very negative effect on the wildlife as it has totally ruined the habitat for lot of species.

Italy and France are separated by a massive mountain range, the Alps. The Alps are very large and very high, but nonetheless the humans managed to find ways to build highways through them despite all the difficulties. The highways are state of art through the Alps, and they are very useful for the countries in the region as these highways connect them, and not making them isolted. It has not been so great for the environment though, as lot of changes have been done to the mountain range, and every day there's thousands of animals that die on the highways.

astra-53 [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A) Scatter Diagram</u> can be used to prevent and control a problem.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Scatter diagram is a chart used when the user wants to determine the relationship between cause of a problem and the effects. It also determines one cause and two others. Since it investigates the cause and effects, it is used in problem-solving and controlling problems.

Furthermore, it can be used to analyse problems involving many variations which other charts like histogram, Pareto diagrams cannot analyse. Analyzing the chart checks the relationship between the y-axis and x-axis values by assessing if there is any correlation, whether it is a negative or a positive correlation, and etc.

A triangle has angle measures of 27°, 39°, and xº. Use the Triangle Sum Theorem to find the value of xº.
Sav [38]

Answer:

114 degrees

Explanation:

Because when you add 27 and 39 together you get 66. And the interior of a triangle equals 180 so now you must subtract the 66 from 180. And once you do that you get 114 degrees.
