Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

In the year 1912, a meteorologist and a geophysicist, proposed a theory that explained positional shifts in the continents on the surface of the Earth.

Likewise, he also clarified why similarity in appearance exist between the fossils of animals and plants and comparable rock developments are found on various continents.

Alfred Wegener proposed that maybe the Earth's rotation made the continents move towards and separate from one another or crerated continental drift. (It doesn't.) Today, we realize that the continents lay on monstrous sections of rocks called tectonic plates.  

The plates are continually moving and connecting in a procedure called plate tectonics.

Air masses that form over __________ carry much more moisture due to evaporation.
DENIUS [597]

Air masses that form over <u>water</u> carry much more moisture due to evaporation.

<h3>Which air mass has the most moisture?</h3>
  • Maritime air masses, also known as ocean air masses, are more humid than continental air masses, which are air masses that originate over land.
  • The air mass's temperature, which varies depending on the latitude at where it formed, is indicated by the second component of the name.

<h3>Why do you suppose the air masses that develop over water are moist?</h3>
  • High air pressure is present in polar or cold air masses.
  • Unsurprisingly, whether an air mass arises over land or water affects its humidity.
  • Due to water evaporation across oceans, maritime air masses frequently have a humid climate.

Graph triangle with vertices U(0,0), V(-5,4) and W(0,6)
Levart [38]

Answer:

Perimeter of triangle UVW = 17.8 units

Explanation:

Given:

U(0,0), V(-5,4), W(0,6)

Find:

Perimeter of triangle UVW

Computation:

Distance = √(x1-x2)² + (y1-y2)²

UV = √(0+5)² + (0-4)²

UV = √41

VW = √(-5-0)² + (4-6)²

VW = √29

UW = √(0-0)² + (0-6)²

UW = √36

UW = 6

So,

Perimeter of triangle UVW = √41+√29+6 units

Perimeter of triangle UVW = 6.4 + 5.4 + 6

Perimeter of triangle UVW = 17.8 units
