Answer:
Water from rivers erodes the banks, the ice breaks up rocks, intense rainfall causes mass wasting, water from rainfall flows as runoff and creates ripples.
Explanation:
Earth has several spheres, all of which have their own unique characteristics that define them as such. Despite all of them being very different from each other, they can not exist in the form they are if there is no interaction with the other spheres, thus all of the spheres are interconnected and they depend on one another.
Two of those hydrospheres are the hydrosphere and geosphere, and they interact in many different ways. When there is rainfall, the water that ends on land flows as runoff until it reaches a water body, and while it does so it manages to create ripples in the ground. If there is intense rainfall in an area where there is steep and unstable terrain, it can easily cause mass wasting by oversaturating the soil with water. The water that flows in the rivers with its power is constantly eroding the banks. If water freezes and turns to ice because its volume becomes greater, it is able to break up rocks with the pressure it creates on them.
The exposed portion of the
continental crust underlying North America refers to Canadian Shield. The continental
crust is known as the North American Craton which consists of rocks from the
Archean dn Proterozoic eons and extends from Mexico to Greenland. Canadian
Shield also produces great resources that helped most humans for their economic
development. Because of the resources present in the Shield, it has a great
disadvantage to settlers. The primary obstacle to population growth in the area
is the presence of the bare rock, thin soils, muskeg and insects.
This is FALSE, because Mt. Elbrus is not located in the Ural Mountains. It is located in the Caucasus Mountains.
