Answer: True

Water erosion is the phenomena which involves the detachment or removal of particles of soil, rocks or other substrate with the effect of free flowing water. The eroded material is removed from it's original site and deposited at some other place. The deposition of eroded material causes the formation of land forms.

Alluvial fans: These are sloppy deposits, which are formed when a free flowing water passes off a mountain range. The water deposits soil, debris and other sediments in a characteristic fan shape.

Deltas: Deltas are deposits of sediments, which develop when water of river enters into another river or ocean.

Deposition: Accumulation of deposits at places because of the fact that water takes away the sediments from one place and deposit at another place.

What are Constant/control variables
Alik [6]

Answer:

constant = changes and control is used as the basis of comparison

Explanation:

Constant variables are variables that do not change

e.g such as the temperature ( if it's meant to be kept at a constant temp).

Control variables are meant to be kept constant to allow for a comparison and thus determine the effect of IV (independant variable) and DV ( dependant variable)

Think about a carbon atom that is released into the atmosphere from burning wood in a campfire. If it were to go through the who
Anna35 [415]

The correct order would be:

1. A tree absorbs the carbon from the atmosphere into its leaves for photosynthesis;

2. A caterpillar gets the carbon by eating the tree's leaves.

3. A bird gets the carbon by eating the caterpillar.

4. The bird flies into a building and dies instantly. It falls to the ground.

5. The bird decomposes and the carbon returns to the atmosphere.

The carbon cycle is very similar to the water cycle, though it has its own unique ways. Once the carbon is released into the atmosphere, it will either be absorbed by the vegetation, or go up into the higher parts of the atmosphere. If it is absorbed by the vegetation, the organisms that eat the vegetation will get it in them. When the predators eat those organism they get the carbon into their organisms. When the predators die, they start to decompose. When they decompose, the carbon is released from them and it returns to the atmosphere, and the whole process goes all over again.
