A. Describe the roles of mechanical and chemical weathering in the formation of the sediments that are eventually incorporated i
nto sedimentary rocks. b. Explain the relationship between plate tectonics and earthquakes, including how earthquakes relate to plate boundries, and the characteristics of earthquakes that might be expected at different types of boundries.
Sedimentary rocks that are formed due to the accumulation of sediments that are derived from the deposition of small particles and their cementation of minerals and organic particles in the seafloor by the impact of various geological and earth processes like the wind, water, and glacier erosion.
Earth's crust is covered by 73% of sedimentary rocks and about 8% of the total crustal surface. Based on their formation, these rocks are thus classified as Siliciclastic, Carbonate, Evaporite, Iron-rich, and Phosphatic sedimentary rocks.
The color of these rocks is always determined by the iron and oxide contents, their size texture is a result of the density and permeability of the rocks like in the case of sandstone and limestone.
The relationship between the plate tectonics and the earthquakes is explained through the seismic waves that travel; through the three-layer of the earth from core to mantle to crust.
Earthquakes are directly related to plate boundaries as these are areas where these waves come out in the form of shocks and shaking of lands thus we expect of seeing three types of boundaries as Convergent, Divergent and Transform.
A supercell thunderstorm is a type of storm that is characterized by a deep and rotating updraft. Supercells can be quite severe, but tend to last between 2 and 4 hours. These storms are particularly associated with the Great Plains area of the United States and the area known as Tornado Corridor in South America (Argentina, Uruguay and southern Brazil).
Yes, there are certain planet that are not detected even if they are large.
Explanation:
The Doppler method is the radial-velocity method, and also an indirect method finding the extra solar planets and the brown dwarfs. While the transit method is a phenomenon only the celestial bodies are directly between a large body and an observer body.
However, the transit method of the transiting planet is low as it depends on the alignment of the three objects that are in a near perfect straight line patterns. And that of the Doppler method that it can only measure movements along that line of sight, and this depends on the estimates of inclination of the planet's orbit to determine its mass.
<u>Thus of a planet is found by both these methods we can find its density, and an indication of its composition.</u>
Reason being that Mexico is part of the North American region with Canada and the United states. The central american countries are all those that border below mexico between mexico and Colombia. Hoped this helped.
