Geography

Ghella [55]3 years ago

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Slate is a metamorphic rock which is characterized by the presence of fine grains that forms foliated structure.

Schist is a high-grade metamorphic rock which commonly characterized by the presence of foliated minerals.

The above-given condition describes the grade of metamorphism, where a low-grade metamorphic rock changes into a high-grade metamorphic rock due to the increase in the temperature and the pressure condition.

Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock that changes into another metamorphic rock named Phyllite and because of the further increase in the temperature-pressure condition, it changes into a higher grade metamorphic rock named schist.

Phyllite is a metamorphic rock that is mainly comprised of minerals such as quartz, mica, and some chlorite.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Question 5: Consider two coastal regions at the same latitude. Region (1) is next a cold ocean current, and (2) is next to a war
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

1- Option (C)

2- Option (A)

3- Option (B)

Explanation:

The warm ocean currents are responsible for the transportation of warm and moist air to the coastal region, whereas the cold ocean currents are responsible for carrying the cold and dry air to the nearby coastal areas.

Therefore, the region (1) will experience a cold and dry type of weather.

The stratosphere is the layer that is just above the troposphere and extends from a height of about 10 to 50 km above the ground surface. Here the temperature increases with the increasing height due to the presence of Ozone layer (O₃) that absorbs the incoming solar radiations.

Troposphere is the interior layer of the atmosphere that extends from the ground surface up to a height of about 10 km. Here, the temperature decreases with the increasing altitude. The air near the ground surface is compact and dense, due to which the temperature remains high. As the warm air rises up it interacts with the cold air that is situated over the warm air. Due to this, the air cools down and sinks to the bottom.

Hence, the correct answers are mentioned above.
