Answer: Cool, high moisture containing and elevated humidity levels

Explanation: Body of air or simply air masses specifically land and sea breezes are caused by the differences in temperature over land and water leading to the creation of high and low pressure points. Prevailing winds moving from oceans across land is called sea breeze which occurs during the day when the land has a higher temperature than surface waters such as the ocean. This results in a lower pressure over land and a higher one over the ocean. The pressure gradient is often strong enough for a wind to blow from the water to the land carrying winds characterized

by high moisture contents and high relative humidities over it.

abruzzese [7]

All the nerve processes radiating out beyond the brain and spinal cord, as well as all the neurons outside the brain and spinal cord, constitute the peripheral nervous system.

Spinal cord is the backbone present in the vertebrates. It is essential for the correct posture and erect body. It extends from the end of the brain till the hipbone. The spinal cord consists of total 5 types of bones called vertebrae, that are total 33 in number.

Peripheral nervous system consists of parts of nervous system outside the brain and the spinal cord. It involves cranial and spinal nerves and their roots and branches, peripheral nerves, and neuromuscular junctions.

Fossil seashells have been found in rock beds on land. what can you infer about how the area has changed

olga55 [171]

When we go to the beach one of the most exiting activities that we do is of course collect the best looking seashells. Now I have never seen seashells in another place other than the beach.

My point in this entery that I have just mentioned is that where there is seeashells there is body of water. What those fossils mean is that that particular place whhere those seashells were once found means that maybe a very long whille back that place was onetime a body of water. Some natural dissaster came and that place doughtet and the water moved to some place else.

My pleasure to help, over and out ;)
