Which of these are the two major sources of nitrate pollution in rivers? the burning of fossil fuels by factories and cars anima
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

animal wastes and fertilizers

Explanation:

The majority of the nitrates that are polluting the rivers come from the animal wastes and from the fertilizers used in the agriculture. The increased amounts of nitrates in the rivers causes eutrophication. This basically means that the water is becoming over-saturated with nutrients. This leads to the spreading out of the algae. As the algae spread out more and more, they cover the surface part of the water, so large portions of the rivers do not receive sunlight, which kills of the organisms that use photosynthesis. Further, the algae reduce the amount of oxygen in the water, often resulting in dying out of the fishes. It is a chain reaction that leads from one thing to another and the end result is devastating.

Which phrase gives two processes scientists think move the Earth's lithospheric plates?
hammer [34]

Convection in the mantle and pressure of magma on the edge of the plate

Explanation:

Convection currents occur in the mantle because the upper mantle (asthenosphere) is generally cooler than the lower mantle. The convections apply upward pressure on the lower edges on the lithosphere as the melted rocks upwell from below. The lithosphere deflects the convections  and as the convections churn clockwise of anticlockwise, they drag the lithosphere with it via friction. This is what is stipulated to cause tectonic plate movements.

What is the effect of high temperature and high pressure water on the melting temperature of most rocks?
Ludmilka [50]
The water would keep the magma at the same temperature restricting it from getting hotter keeping the temperature at melting point but not enough to turn into a flowing liquid
