(Question 1 points 1)
The correct answer is:
D) Troposphere
Explanation:
The troposphere is the first layer above the surface or lowermost layer and this layer contains half of the atmosphere of Earth. Most of the phenomenon of weather, systems, convection, and clouds occur in this layer, although some of them may stretch into the lower portion of the layer named stratosphere. The weather phenomenon is caused by the absorption of ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun by the ozone layer.
(Question 2 points 1)
The correct answer is:
C) The Atlantic Ocean is the baby of the five oceans in geologic age
Explanation:
The Atlantic Ocean extends an elongated, S-shaped basin stretching longitudinally between Europe and Africa to the east, and the Americas to the west and is considered as the Second largest oceans of the Earth. This ocean has occupied about 20 percent of the Earth's surface and approximately 29 percent of its water surface area. This ocean covers an area of about 106,460,000 square kilometers (41,100,000 square miles).
(Question 3 points 1)
The correct answer is;
B) Equator
Explanation:
The Equator divides our planet into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. This is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into two parts. It is one of the lines known as a line of latitude, or circle of latitude. Countries around the equator usually do not experience the four seasons, and their climate usually remains very humid. The Equator is a parallel line that is located at 0°00'00”.
(Question 4 points 1)
The correct answer is:
D) Only the planets were formed by chunks of debris.
Explanation:
Only the planets were formed by chunks of debris is not a common scientific theory about the creation of the universe. The theory states that originally all the matter in the universe was originated by enlarging rapidly in a hot explosion, That explosion is called the Big Bang and happened about 13.7 billion years ago. Stars, Nebula, Black Holes, Galaxies are the several cosmic bodies included in our universe.
(Question 5 point 1)
The correct answer is:
C) The Mantle
Explanation:
A layer that is inside a terrestrial planet such as Earth and some other rocky planetary bodies is known as the mantle. The interior part of Earth is similar to the other terrestrial planets such as mars and Venus. the interior is divided into layers of different composition. About 84% of the volume of the Earth is basically made up of the mantle. It is predominant solid but usually behaves as a viscous fluid in geological time.
(Question 6 point 1)
The correct answer is:
A) The geosphere contains water that surrounds the globe.
Explanation:
The geosphere is sometimes or somehow said as the collective name for the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, and the atmosphere as it includes everything that seems to be solid ground and also includes the ocean floors, and the deserts, the rocks, the mountains and every portion of land or formation on the continents. This includes the interior of the Earth, rocks and minerals, land-forms and the processes that shape the surface of Earth. There are the three parts of the geosphere that are named as the crust, the mantle, and the core.
(Question 7 point 1)
The correct answer is:
A) The number of trees in a given location.
Explanation:
One of the most obvious and important factors that are contributing to the change in Earth climate is the angle at which the earth is tilted. This axial tilt angle influences the climate largely by deciding which parts of the earth get more sunlight during different stages of the year.
The amount of precipitation in a given location is a major factor that impacts climate.
(Question 8 point 1)
The correct answer is:
B) Australia
Explanation:
Tasmania, the island of New Guinea and Australia are all located in one continental crust. They all collectively formed a single continent Australia or Sahul can say. The people of Australia have little in common now with people of New Guinea. New Guinea is usually included in the Oceania region as it is a Melanesian island, leaving Australia on its own.
(Question 9 point 1)
The correct answer is;
B) Degrees.
Explanation:
The Equator is the line that separates out the spheres into northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere and the latitude is the distance from the equator to either north or south. While longitude is the distance east or west of the prime meridian. These distance are measured by the help of a unit called degrees of the circle (symbolized by °).
(Question 10 point 1)
The correct answer is:
A) Mesosphere.
Explanation:
The layer that is directly above the stratosphere and directly below the thermosphere is known as mesosphere. The temperature gets lowered in this layer as the altitude gets higher. Mesosphere along with the lower part of thermosphere and stratosphere forms the middle atmosphere. The air is much thinner or less dense in the mesosphere than in the stratosphere below this layer.
