The atacama desert is west of the andes mountains.
Igneous rocks -
1. texture, can be smooth, fine-grained, coarse-grained, glassy, or porphyritic.
2. origin, geologists use this to study to know where it was found, like it could be formed by hardened magma under the earth's surface.
3. mineral composition, some of these rocks had other minerals that help us find all the exact minerals. (like a tree diagram)
Sedimentary Rocks-
1. the only rocks with fossils, trace fossils, or sedimentary features.
2. composed of strata (layer) or laminations (bed)
3. sedimentary rocks have grains instead of crystals.
4. Metamorphism destroys fossil evidence and lava destroys its organic material before the fossilation can take place.
Metamorphic Rocks-
1. rarely have fossils & they are classified by these textures and compositions
2. they can react with acid. may or may not have a curved or bent foliation
3. can be formed w/ only one mineral & they rarely have pores or openings.
Answer:
C. Both experience low levels of precipitation.
Explanation:
Dry climate zones and high latitude zones are similar because both places experience low levels of precipitation.
- Dry climate zones are made up of deserts and steppes.
- Generally, dry climate zones are typified for their low precipitation all year round.
- High latitude zones are areas close to the poles
- The weather is generally cold and surface covered with ice.
- Precipitation is low here.
<span> Continental Polar air masses are also cold to cool and dry, but are not as cold as the Arctic air masses. Continental Polar air masses form over Canada and </span>Siberia<span>. These air masses bring cold air during the winter and cool, relatively clear, rather pleasant weather in the summer. So it would be northern Canada.</span>
A. Wind erosion is the correct answer to your question.
