Compare how Wind and Glaciers abrade rock

Biology
1 answer:
Blizzard [7]3 years ago
5 0
Wind<span> abrades rock by sandblasting, this is the process in which wind causes the blowing of millions of grains of sand, which bumps across the surface of rocks' surface. it can also happen due to deflation, which is when wind removes the top layer of fine sediment/soil to cause desert pavement. 
</span>Glaciers, however, abrade rock by simply using Gravity. when enough ice builds up on a slope, the ice begins to move downhill. The steeper the slope, the faster the glacier. As glaciers move forwad, the material that they picked up scratch and abrade the rock and soil underneath the glacier, which causes erosion<span>.
</span>Hope this helps! :)

What evolutionary events might have led to the presence of two genomic clones in pigs, and the discrepancies in their length com
Komok [63]

Answer:

Gene duplication  

Explanation:

Gene duplication is an evolutionary process that includes different phenomena such as, among others, unequal crossover, chromosome rearrangement, chromosome duplication, etc. These duplicated genes are redundant in function and therefore they may accumulate mutations such as insertions or deletions at higher rates compared to single-copy DNA sequences, thereby producing homologous genomic fragments with different lengths

How are the carbon, nitrogen and oxygen cycles similar
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Firstly, they are all biogeochemical cycles. They cycle substances through the different systems. So this means that these substances like elements, compounds, and the like go through the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere. It involves both the living and non-living things on Earth, all playing a role in transforming substances into something that can be used, only to be recycled again to provide for the other in a cyclic manner.

For example the oxygen cycle involves how oxygen is produced and used over and over. As we exhale Carbon Dioxide, it gets absorbed by plants which use it, along with water and light, to produce their own food in a process called photosynthesis. A by-product of this process is oxygen which we take in and use and we exhale Carbon dioxide again.
