Answer: 1. The moon is about the same age as Earth

2. The moon lacks a sizable iron core

3. Galaxies

4. Hydrogen and helium gas

5. Venus

Explanation: 1. The Moon is about 4.53 billion years while The Earth is about 4.543 billion years. Therefore, both The Moon and The Earth are about the same age.

2. The giant impact hypothesis suggests that the Moon formed out of the debris left over from a collision between Earth and an astronomical body the size of Mars, approximately 4.5 billion years ago, in the Hadean eon. It has 7 pieces of evidence and one is that "The Moon has a relatively small iron core".

3. The solar system comprises of The Sun, Stars, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune (major planet), dwarf planets ( including Pluto), moons, asteroid, comets, meteoroids.

Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the terrestrial planets ( inner planets closest to The Sun). Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are Jovian planets.

The solar system is rather found in of the galaxies (The Milky Way).

4. Jovian planets are made of gas or ice. Helium and hydrogen are gases and they are the main components found in them.

5. Venus is the hottest planet even though it is the second closest to the sun. The temperature is about 464ºC.

It is expected that Mercury should be the hottest due to it is the closest but it doesn't have any atmosphere, and atmosphere helps to hold and trap heat. Hence, the heat in Mercury is quickly lost into space. While Venus has a thick atmosphere and it is able to absorb all the heat from the Sun.

Describe and discuss how the poor distribution of services and inadequate infrastructure continues to affect the poor and margin
Vinvika [58]

The poor distribution of services and inadequate infrastructure is basically inadequate and almost unreachable for the poor people in South Africa.

In a lot of areas dominated by poor and marginalized people, electricity is almost inadequate. This is a major infrastructure that should be equitably distributed between all classes in the country.

Health and medical infrastructure are limited. The people have no access to what is available due to the high costs and the unavailability of financial resources. Due to the nature of these people, they should have the best form of medical attention.

There is also a lack of technological skills in the country. This affects the poor and marginalized, especially the subsistence farmers who needs these to improve their farming.

Which of the following types of fog is most common along our Orange County beaches as well as in San Francisco?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Advection fog.

Explanation:

Advection fog is most common along our Orange County beaches as well as in San Francisco because it is due to horizontal movement of air and it occur when the warmer and more moist air flow through the colder ground surface which lead to the cooling of the near air surface of the beach to below it's dew points and thus can happen even when it us windy and cloudy. It is common in West coast of USA.

9. Which forces do scientists believe are responsible for the movement of Earth's
SIZIF [17.4K]
The main reason why the tectonic plates move is the conversational currents. There is magma between the upper mantle and the asthenosphere that heats up at the upper mantle. The weight is so small that the magma rises with the help of these conversational currents. When the magma has ascended towards the asthenosphere, it has nowhere to go so the magma lies along the asthenosphere. There the magma cools down again because the asthenosphere is colder than the upper mantle, which makes the magma heavier and goes back down to the upper mantle, where the magma heats up again and everything starts all over again and so it goes on over and over again. Scientists have concluded that the earth's gravity causes two other processes that also cause the tectonic plates to move.

Ridge push - in the spreading zones, the sides of the tiles are raised and slide to the side as in a slide.
Slab pull - when a plate is pulled down by gravity in a subduction zone like an anchor.

What are common tectonic settings associated with volcanic activity?
algol [13]

Answer: Mantle plumes, Continental rifts, island arcs, and Continental arcs

Explanation:

Mantle plume is the mechanism of convecting abnormally hot rocks within the Earth's mantle. The plume head partly melts on reaching shallow depths, the plume is often invoked as the cause of volcanic hotspots.

Continental rift refers to the belt of the continental lithosphere where the extensional deformation (rifting) is taking place. Continental rift zones have important consequences and geological features, and if the rifting is successful, leads to the formation of new ocean basins.

Island arcs are long chains of active volcanoes with intense seismic activity found along convergent tectonic plate boundaries. Most island arcs originate on oceanic crust and have resulted from the descent of the lithosphere into the mantle along the subduction zone. They are the principal way by which continental growth is achieved.

Continental arc is a type of volcanic arc occurring as an "arc-shape" topographic high region along a continental margin. The continental arc is formed where two tectonic plates meet, and where one plate has continental crust and the other plate has an oceanic crust along the line of plate convergence, and a subduction zone develops.
