Answer:
Explanation:
The temperature and pressure on the earth's surface is lower than that below the earth's surface. Generally, temperature and pressure increases as you move/dig down the earth's surface. This increase in temperature and pressure causes the earth's sediment (below the earth surface) to form a compact solid rock - this process is known as lithification.
Some facts about Water erosion :
Water erosion is the detachment and removal of soil material by water. The process may be natural or accelerated by human activity. ... Water erosion wears away the earth's surface. Sheet erosion is the more-or-less uniform removal of soil from the surface.
Water and Wind Erosion (cause)
Water erosion is the removal of soil by water and transportation of the eroded materials away from the point of removal. Water action due to rain erodes the soil and causes activities like gully, rill, and stream erosion leading to the downstream effects of flooding and sedimentation.
Answer:
number of nitrogen bases
Explanation:
<em>The correct answer would be the number of nitrogen bases.</em>
<u>A defective protein is usually caused by mutation, which is defined a change in the DNA sequence of an organism.</u>
Mutation can occur in a variety of ways including:
<em>1. Deletion of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA</em>
<em>2. Addition (insertion) of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA</em>
<em>3. Duplication of nucleotide sequence in the DNA</em>
<u>A change in number of phosphate molecules, sequence of subunits DNA and sequence of sugar molecules if possible in nature, do not lead to mutation if the change does not affect the sequence of DNA.</u>
Hence, the correct option is number of nitrogen bases.
