Compare the surface of the Earth to that of the Moon. Why doesn't the Earth's land retain the same scarring from meteorite impac
Andru [333]

Hello!

The reason the Earth doesn't retain the same scarring from meteorite impact as the moon is because Earth has things that can wear this scarring down, while the moon doesn't. This is primarily because the Moon <u>doesn't have an atmosphere</u> while the Earth does.

For example, Earth's land doesn't retain the same scarring from meteorite impact as it has wind, rain, plants and all these things which erode the scarring away. However, the moon doesn't have these things. There is no wind, no rain, and nothing to blow away the scarring. Even footprints can last on the moon for this reason.

Earth's ocean doesn't retain the scarring either because of the water. The water, plus all of its currents and plant growth erodes away the marks, and eventually, they will disappear.

Hope this helps!

The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is planning a study to determine whether breakwaters help decrease erosion at a large
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

This study is an example of a blocked design experiment.

Explanation:

Directly, we can say that a blocked design experiment is an experiment that has the object of study divided into blocks that are repeated throughout the experimental unit. In the experiment presented in the question above, we can recognize these blocks when the researcher decided to divide the coastline into 30-meter plots, installing some with breakwaters and others without. Each plot, in this case, is a block.

This type of experiment requires that all blocks are the same and be subjected to the same factors. This allows the researcher to have control of the entire experiment and obtain homogeneous results in each block. In the experiment shown above, we can see that this control has been impaired, since the coastlines to the east and west of the lake receive very different wave patterns due to the wind. This will prevent the blocks from having homogeneous results, since the action of the breakwaters will be affected differently in each block.
