Which statements describe erosion?

Geography
2 answers:
natka813 [3]4 years ago
5 0

The correct answers are:

- Erosion can be harmful to the environment; bigger erosion in a shorter time span can be very destructive to the environment because whole layers of soil will be moved away and the landscape and the features of the environment will be changed.

- Erosion is caused by human activities; people have a big impact on the erosion, mainly by destroying the vegetation which is essential for prevention of this process.

- Erosion is caused by the wind, water, and gravity; these three are the natural factors that are causing the erosion, and that manage to move the soil away from a particular place.

- The process of erosion moves soil; the process of erosion in its essence means exactly that, moving of soil, and while this is bad for the place from where the soil is moved away, it can be good for the place where the material will be deposited later on.

Why is it that New York City has a greater temperature range than Eureka, CA even though they are at the same latitude ?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

New York has a different geographical setting and location.

Explanation:

Most of New York is dominated by a geography which consists of farms, forests, rivers, mountains, and lakes. Eureka, California has a geography which consists of fertile farmlands of the Central Valley and the arid Mojave Desert. The geography of a place affects the climatic conditions such as temperature, precipitation etc.Areas with deserts will experience little rainfall and areas with rivers will experience high rainfall.

Another point is that the temperatures vary greatly because they have a different position on Earth. One is on the east coast and the other is on the west coast. Temperatures will be influenced by the position Earth has towards the sun and the axis angle.

The short residence time of water in the atmosphere allows a water molecule to have a stronger ability to do which of the follow
Katena32 [7]

Answer: B. participate in the hydrologic cycle

Explanation: Residence time of water is the rate of water in a water reservoir such as the ocean or the atmosphere divided by how fast more water is added to it or lost from it.

While residence time is thousands of years in oceans, water in the atmosphere has a short residence time of abut 10 – 11 days. This allows it to participate in the hydrologic cycle which includes evaporation and precipitation. Water in the atmosphere precipitates as snow or rain, returning to other water reservoirs.

Use examples to explain how the biosphere interacts with two other of Earth's spheres. Explain the interaction for each using co
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The biosphere is influenced by other spheres and also influences other spheres.

Explanation:

The biosphere comes into contact with several other spheres such as the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere.

Contact with the atmosphere is a two way street since the biosphere can alter the composition of the atmosphere. However, many members of the biosphere like mammals and birds depend on the mix of gases in the atmosphere to survive, and weather is an important agent of change.

The lithosphere is another sphere that can impact the biosphere through geologic activity both underground and on the surface. The impact of the biosphere on the lithosphere can be observed through the altering and transformation of terrains and through biochemical weathering of rocks.
