Answer:

The sediments accumulating on and around mid-ocean ridges are mostly formed from the calcareous and siliceous tests of pelagic organisms. This research is concerned with understanding how the rate of sediment supply varies from place to place due to varied productivity of pelagic organisms, how the sediments accumulate on the complex topography of a mid-ocean ridge, and with using the sediments to study mid-ocean ridge processes such as faulting and volcanism.

Sediment transport and accumulation

When pelagic materials reach the seafloor, they are redistributed by bottom currents and by sedimentary flows. This work studied the form of the accumulation using sediment profiler records collected with a Deep Tow system from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography deployed over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in the early 1970s. The records showed that both sets of transport processes are important. The shapes of deposits were studied to see to what extent they conform to the diffusion transport model - many deposits have parabolic surfaces, which are the steady state forms expected from the diffusion transport model under boundary conditions of constant input or output flux to basins.

The answer would be option B "I believe there is life on other planets." Scientific statements have a possibility to be wrong. It's not option A because option A is a opinion. It's not option C because option C is a fact. It's not option D because option D is a opinion.

Hope this helps!

Balance and find out the coefficients of reactions and products ​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

2, 1, 1, 4.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction:

H_2SO_4+Pb(OH)_4\rightarrow Pb(SO_4)_2+H_2O\\

We can see how there is one SO4 on the left and two on the right, thus, we add a 2 in front of H2SO4:

2H_2SO_4+Pb(OH)_4\rightarrow Pb(SO_4)_2+H_2O\\

Next, since there are 8 atoms of hydrogen on the left and two on the right, we add a 4 in front of H2O to obtain:

2H_2SO_4+Pb(OH)_4\rightarrow Pb(SO_4)_2+4H_2O\\

Which is now balanced so the coefficients 2, 1, 1, 4.

Best regards!
