The theory is that the Earth's outer crust (the lithosphere) is made up of different plates that move around the molten upper portion on the mantle due to convection currents.

To be honest you can search it up on Google. That’s what I would do. Do it on your phone and reword it so it’s not plagiarism!

What are 3 types of biomes and give a brief description of one.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

1. A tundra is a type of biome where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons.

2. A savanna or savannah is a mixed woodland-grassland ecosystem characterised by the trees being sufficiently widely spaced so that the canopy does not close.

3. An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it, and with a free connection to the open sea.

Why did the giant planets grow larger than the terrestrial planets?Because there was more solid ice farther from the Sun. b. Bec
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

D. Because there was more gas farther from the Sun. As the are out of the range

Explanation:

  • Basically, due to the core acceleration mechanism, theory to the formation of gaseous objects that can pull the gas as farther away from the sun the impact of solar winds is quite less. There are low-pressure regions
  • Unlike rocky planets that have a different atmosphere and gas giants don't have a well-defined surface there atmosphere simply becomes denser to the core which may also be in a liquid-like state thus not suitable for landing.
  • There are four gaseous giants in our solar system such as Uranus, Neptune, Jupiter Saturn all have atmosphere covered with ice or gases and all are bigger as compared to terrestrial planets like earth thus they are called as Jovian planets.  
  • These Jovians attract large amounts of gas as their magnetic fields are stronger and huge size ad gas giants are known as metallic molecules of hydrogen and helium in core consisting of more than 50% of the planet masses.

Which would be an adaptation for living in the tundra?
Novosadov [1.4K]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Which would be an adaptation for living in the tundra?

funnel shaped leaves to help water runoff

deep roots to go into the permafrost

hibernation to lower metabolism in the winter

large ears to release heat

Answer: hibernation to lower metabolism in the winter

Explanation:

Hibernation is something many animals do to survive in the tundra. They hid in dens for several months during the winter. Their metabolisms get to a dormant state in which their bodies survive thanks to stores of fat gained during the summer. The Grizzly bear is an example of a tundra animal that hibernates during the winter.
