Geothermal energy is heat energy generated and stored in the Earth. ... The adjective geothermal originates from the Greek roots γη (ge), meaning earth, and θερμος (thermos), meaning hot. Earth's internal heat is thermal energy generated from radioactive decay and continual heat loss from Earth's formation.

Answer:

Physical Weathering

Explanation:

As per the given conditions in the question, the primary effect is <u>mechanical action</u> which is also known as a <u>physical weathering</u>. During mechanical action, a rock is disintegrated into the smaller pieces. In the given statement, <u>the root of tree would grow in the crack and try to develop a strong network to get nutrients necessary for tha tree growth</u>. Thus, the <u>root would exert a pressure</u> in the crack to make more space for its growth and development (root network). This is primarily a mechanical action and an example of physical weathering.

Explain how predator and prey populations limit each other growth rates.
EleoNora [17]
Notice that independently, the prey population goes up, if the predator's population is low. One interpretation is that there are not enough predators to really make a dent in the prey's population. But as the prey's population increases, they become easier targets for the predators since there are so many. As predators feed on prey, the predator's population increases (more food, can sustain a bigger population) and the prey's population decreases. As less and less prey are available to hunt, the predator's population also decreases.

Note that it need not be this cyclical, the trend can go to an equilibrium point where the populations do not fluctuate all that much.


the predator eats the prey limiting them to not overly grow. And the prey do not overly grow limiting the predators population to not overly grow as well. hope that helps
