The largest island of Hawaii has multiple biomes. The reason for this is the topography of the island. In the middle of the island there's an enormous very high volcano. One side of the island manages to get lot of precipitation, the windward side, thus this part of the island is dominated by dense rainforest and animals that are adapted to wet tropical conditions. The other side of the island though receives much less precipitation because the high volcano stops the wet air masses to reach it, so it is mostly dry and warm air masses that reach this part of the island, which is the leeward side. That makes it much drier, semi-arid even, thus it is dominated by grasses and animals adapted to live in that biome. The side parts of the island that are neither on the windward nor on the leeward side receive precipitation, less than the windward side, but more than the leeward side. This makes them be dominated by shrubs, with trees that are more scattered, so the fauna is adapted to this kind of more temperate conditions for living.

Answer:

The correct answers are -

A. Find the absolute age of rocks at both locations.

B. Compare a layer at one location to layers at other locations

C. Identify index fossils in one or more layer at one location.

Explanation:

A scientist who studied the earth and different aspects such as it's structure and the materials it made if up known as a geologist. Classifying rocks and discovering various components and matter on earth are the major duties of a geologist.

At some point, rocks can be located at a distance beyond the reach of geologists. Nevertheless, they have a way of studying, and comparing the layers of those rocks helps them to understand the basic difference in the earth locations and the presence of certain components of earth.

Comparing rocks and layers can include these steps at first by geologists-

A. Find the absolute age of rocks at both locations.

B. Compare a layer at one location to layers at other locations

C. Identify index fossils in one or more layer at one location.

Explain what is happening to air mass from the sea as it moves up the side of the mountain and down the other side.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The orographic effect creates cooler air moving up the windward side of mountains and warmer air moving down the leeward side. Often, as the leeward air plunges down the slope, it warms quite dramatically and rapidly. Such rapid warming and drying of air can produce very high winds known as Chinook or Foehn winds.

8_murik_8 [283]

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Grizzly bears are an integral part of the ecosystems in which they live and thrive. An example of their value to biodiversity includes their role in providing forests with a large amount of nitrogen needed to grow and persist through the consumption of salmon. This is an example of what type of species value?

Select one:

a. None of the above

b. Direct

c. Indirect

d. Cultural

Answer:

The correct answer is indirect value.

Explanation:

An illustration of the environmental service value is the production of a huge concentration of nitrogen within a locality. All the non-consumable values like economic values, social, cultural, aesthetic values, etc. come under the category of indirect values.  

An indirect value indirectly helps an organism to thrive within a surrounding, like in the given case production of nitrogen is a non-consumable value, thus, it can also be considered as an indirect value. On the other hand, all the productive and consumable values in the form of medicine, food, etc come under the category of direct value.
