Answer:

Principle of Superposition and Principle of Cross-cutting relationship

Explanation:

According to the law of superposition, the rock layers that are present at the base of a rock sequence are the oldest rocks as they were deposited a long time back, and those layers that are present at the apex are the youngest rocks and were deposited recently.

According to the law of cross-cutting relationships, the geological features (igneous intrusive bodies) such as d(i)kes, sills, batholiths, laccoliths, lopoliths are younger than the rocks that are being cut. This provides the relative age of the features.

In the given condition, as Bary says that the lowest portion of the building is constructed earlier than the upper portion, he refers to the principle of superposition.

And when he says about the cracks that are formed in the walls, he referred to the principle of cross-cutting relationship.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The glacier's weight that is combined with the gradual movement, can alter and reforms the landscape over hundreds the thousands of the years. The ice then erodes the land surface and this can break the rocks and the soil debris far from their original places, resulting in various glacial landforms.
  • The Glaciers retreat also leads to the rise of the large sets of the sediments that are being deposited when the terminal extends as far down valley as it previously did. The Glaciers retreat as the ice melts more quickly than snowfall can accumulate and thus form the new glacial ice.

How is the African continent diverse? Summarize this continent's diversity in terms of its languages, religions, and cultural in
kipiarov [429]
Africa is diverse in it's inhabitants, history both political and social, and geography. The continent is massive and covers all four hemispheres. As the site of the "birthplace of humanity", and many of the world's treasured minerals occur here, Africa provides economic opportunity found in few other places. Northern Africa has rich landscape in the Fertile Crescent of Earth, the Sahara is historically the home of many now endangered animals. England, France, Spain, and most other developed nations have colonized Africa in some way, including the United States, in it's own unique way. (See: The Poisonwood Bible) Tribal and foreign languages are equally common, as colonization and immigration are wide-spread. Geographically, the "borders" within Africa are arbitrary and have lead to Tribal conflict, perpetuating the notion that African tribes are barbaric, savagely, or lesser humans. These borders were imposed by immigrants from Europe. Trade and commerce in Africa keeps economy growing, but only in ways that benefit more-developed countries.
