Leno4ka [110]3 years ago

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

A rainforest, as its name implies, contains a great number of trees and vegetation. Each tree releases a great daily amount of water to the atmosphere through the transpiration process.

Transpiration occurs when the water stored in the tree, is released through the leaves, this water is then evaporated and rises to the atmosphere as water vapor, which then can fall back as rain.

The lack of trees, vegetation, and humidity in a desert make this process nearly impossible. Therefore, the few plants living in the desert use different methods to keep themselves hydrated.

Which statement supports the giant impact theory for the formation of the Moon? A. Earth and the Moon share many compositional c
OLEGan [10]

Answer: A. Earth and the Moon share many compositional characteristics

Explanation:

According to the giant impact theory, the Moon formed when an object of the size of Mars and geologically similar to Earth (which was called Theia by scientifics) crashed into the primitive Earth. With this collision, vaporized pieces of the crust of the young Earth were thrown into space. After this, the expelled particles were united by the action of gravity, creating the Moon.

This theory could explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth, but lighter, making it less dense than Earth, since the material that formed it came from the crust, leaving the rocky core of the planet intact. This was verified by the samples of rocks brought from the Apollo missions, which indicate that it is composed mostly of the same components of the Earth.

The precautionary measures that will be more effective in the future to minimize tropical cyclones impact
Effectus [21]

Answer and Explanation:

In the face of a tropical cyclone, many precautionary measures can be taken in the future to prevent major and more destructive damage from happening and to allow people to be as safe as possible. Among these precautionary measures we can mention:

The evacuation of the inhabitants of a potentially flooded region, either by storm, or by rising tides.

Creation of safe and strong shelters, with availability of food and medicine.

Keep the shelter windowless, or keep the windows protected, preventing them from breaking and hurting people.

Disconnect electronic devices, but keep a communication source that informs you when the region is safe again.
