The picture below shows a floodplain alongside a river channel. A floodplain is a flat landform created by deposition on the bot
Artist 52 [7]
The appropriate answer is D. a river floods over its channel banks and deposits sediment on the wide valley bottom. 

Flood plains usually develop along the lower course of the river. The lower course has a gentle gradient and so the flow of water is not fast and therefore the bed load of the river gets deposited. Rivers carry materials such as boulders, pebbles, gravel, sand, silt and clay. The larger size materials will get deposited upstream while the finer material will travel to the lower course. 
The glacier melt each year increases the volume of the river so it will overflow its banks and deposit materials in layers on the flood plains. Materials on the flood plain are usually fine such as sand and silt.

What's a major assumption when drawing evolutionary relationships between organisms?
Xelga [282]

Based on DNA sequences, it is believed that changes in nucleotide sequence between two species are equivalent to the time that has elapsed since the two species diverged from their common ancestor. Gene sequencing is being used in addition to morphology to determine evolutionary relationships between organism. Homologous sequences show greater evolutionary relationship

Some similarities: they both contain water: ocean in a liquid form and atmosphere as water vapor and oxygen, although oceans have relatively little oxygen (but enough for the fish to catch).

Major difference is that the main substance in the atmosphere is various gasses, while the main substance in the ocean is water in liquid form.

What is an Obligate anaerobe? How do obligate anaerobes, like the bacteria C. Botulinum, get energy ?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Obligate anaerobes are microbes that can only survive in oxygen-deficient environments. They are killed by the normal atmospheric level of oxygen and will only thrive in environments whose oxygen levels are lower than that of normal atmospheric level. </em>

Obligate bacteria such as <em>Clostridium botulinum </em>obtain their energy through <u>anaerobic respiration processes such as fermentation and anaerobic respiration.</u> During this process of fermentation, the lactic acid pathway is mostly used but other fermentation pathways such as propionic acid, mixed acid, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis pathways can be used.
