Rock layers are correlated if they both contain the same ____.
REY [17]

Answer:

c. fossils

Explanation:

Fossils are the remains of dead and decayed organisms that are preserved in rocks. Fossils can be preserved using their hard parts, or the products of their activities can remain still for several years.

Fossil are used for relative age dating of rocks.  According to the principle of fossil and fauna succession, it is scientifically correct to correlate areas with the same fossil record because fossils succeed on another in a definite order. All rocks that exists in that time period will contain the organisms that lived during that period in time.

As of 2010, which of the following countries had populations exceeding one billion people?
Kaylis [27]
As of 2010, the two countries that are exceeding 1 billion people are China and India. This are by far the two most populated countries in the world, combined, they make around 1/3 of the world's total population. Even with the law that forbid the Chinese to have more then one child, that lasted few decades, their number still managed to grow (mainly because the law was not so strict in the rural areas). India, on the other hand, has very big fertility rate, there's no laws that restrict the number of children a family can have, and with this rate it's just matter of time when will India take over the number one place, as the world's most populated country.

What causes the seasons? Explain. Be as precise and accurate as possible.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Rotation of the earth on its axis.

Explanation:

  • The earth is tilted at <u>23.5 degrees relative to its ecliptic plane</u> and rotates in an anticlockwise direction around the sun this causes the winds in the earth to move from left to right in the northern hemisphere and in right to left in southern hemisphere knowns the Coriolis effect.
  • The impact of sun rays creates a system n the earth's landscape that makes the earth produce temperature inversions and relative earth has three pressure cells that move in a cyclic order from the equator to the poles.
  • It is also due to the angle of inclination around the sun that the earth experience cold and warm weather in summers as a result of the tilt the sun rays fall directly 90 degrees on the equator and are inclined toward the poles at the angle of 30 degrees.  
  • Also, the presence of upper air jet streams and geostrophic winds influence the temperature ranges o the earth they bing in the warm and cold air masses from the other regions and equator being a region of mixing diverts all of these winds hence creating a good balance.
