The KT boundary marks a mass extinction event. the KT boundary is the time between the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods. An asteroid hit the earth at the end of the Cretaceous and that caused the end of the Cretaceous period. Before the KT boundary, pollen from angiosperms and gymnosperms is high. After the meteor hits the earth, a mass extinction occurs and the amount of pollen from gymnosperms and angiosperms decreases dramatically, while the amount of spores from ferns increases. During the Cretaceous period there were many species of gymnosperms and angiosperms but they disappeared at the KT boundary, when the asteroid hit the earth.

Identify the phrase that best describes a transfer of energy between the hydrosphere and the atmosphere
HACTEHA [7]

Answer;

-Condensation and evaporation

Explanation;

-The atmosphere and hydrosphere are the two essential parts of the climate system. This is because they are able to absorb and store thermal energy, thus they act as heat sinks, and also by absorbing the energy and storing it, it creates a big impact on our atmosphere. Energy transfer by the atmosphere regulates the temperature of the earth.

-Once received by radiation or convection thermal energy is distributed through the atmosphere and the hydrosphere by convection and conduction. This is what creates a climate.

How can a liquid be drawn into a pipette safely?
Reptile [31]

B is wrong, unless you want to accidentally get a mouthful of the sulfuric acid or cyanide you are pipetting.

C and D are wrong. Even the wide end of a pipette is too narrow to fill with either a beaker or an eyedropper.
