The correct answer is - Seafloor spreading at the mid-ocean ridge provides the mechanism for tectonic plate movement.
Harry Hess is one of the people that is most important when it comes to the proving and world wide acceptance of the continental drift theory.
Hess was very interested in the topic, and he was constantly looking for clues that would bring light to it and finally have a definite proof of it. While sailing through the Atlantic and doing some examinations, Hess noticed that there high mountains in the water, having flat peaks, and being arranged in an interesting manner. These underwater mountains, named guyouts, were the highest at a certain point, and than on both sides, as the distance was increasing they were becoming smaller and smaller.
What Hess stumbled upon was the seafloor spreading and how it works, and he recognized that quickly. He immediately went on to share what he discovered, that there's magma coming from bellow, solidifying and spreading, thus creating new crust while pushing the old crust away from the center, which is the reason why the continents are moving.
The statement that the saturation vapor pressure of the air parcel increases is true among the given statements.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
The saturation vapor pressure of the air parcel will increase with the increasing temperature. The amount of pressure that each air bubble will exert will increase if the temperature is increased. This would in turn make the vapor molecules saturate just above the water molecules.
This eventually results in precipitation. At high temperature, vapor molecules take less time to saturate over the water as compared to saturation at freezing temperatures which means that rainfall is more when temperature causes saturation vapor pressure to increase.
Answer:
The biome receives the greatest amount of solar energy during the spring
and summer months
Explanation:
A biome may be defined as that community of plants as well as animals that have a common characteristics in the surrounding or the environment in which they live. They are the biological communities formed as a result of the physical climate they share.
The Arctic biome of the earth is located above the 66° north latitude. This region is home to various low growing plants and herbs. They only flourish in the spring seasons and the summer months. This is because this biome receives maximum amount of solar energy during the summer and the spring months. Rest of the year is covered with snow.
