Answer:

Soils normally form from  sediments transported by wind, water, and ice

Explanation:

The soil is dependent on the minerals of soil. They are formed by weathering mechanisms and natural erosion from rocks (source material). Water, air, difference in temperatures, gravity, chemical reaction, living organisms and differences in pressure all help break parent material.

Soils formed from the rocks. When rain water is accumulated in capillaries (narrow holes), in a number of parts they break down the rock. Thus get way to form soil minerals which on accumulation result in soil

Comets that visit the inner Solar System were kicked there from the Kuiper Belt or Oort Cloud by gravitational close encounters
Helga [31]

Answer:

There's additional information which helps better answer this question:

Which of the following properties of Pluto would best help answer this question?

<em>A.</em><em> surface temperature  </em><em>B.</em><em> composition  </em><em>C.</em><em> apparent brightness    </em>

<em>    </em><em>D.</em><em> color </em><em>E.</em><em> orbital period</em>

Pluto is kind of a mixture of Rock and water ice, with a 70% rock and the rest water ice, estimated that the 70% rock part is its core and the other 30% would be its mantle consisting of water ice and other gases such as nitrogen, carbon monoxide and methane; it is part of the Kuiper belt and it's considered a dwarf planet due it orbits the Sun  and it's bigger than other asteroids and comets to be a dwarf, but not big enough to be a regular planet. Comets are generally more fragile than big asteroids and dwarf planets such as Pluto, their composition make them different objects due cometary nuclei is more like a blend of dust, some roks, water ice and some other gases, they're maily icy dirt balls.

Thus is mostly Pluto's composition which differ it from comets, therefore the best option would be:  <em>B.</em><em>Composition</em>

Explain the meaning of the term soil erosion.
Marina86 [1]

\huge\fbox\red{Answer}

  • Soil erosion is a gradual process of movement and transport of the upper layer of soil (topsoil) by different agents – particularly water, wind, and mass movement – causing its deterioration in the long term.

  • In other words, soil erosion is the removal of the most fertile top layer of soil through water, wind and tillage.

Answer:The law of superposition states that rock strata (layers) farthest from the ground surface are the oldest (formed first) and rock strata (layers) closest to the ground surface are the youngest (formed most recently). A fossil is the remains or traces of plants and animals that lived long ago.

Explanation:

Law of Superposition

The relative ages of rocks are important for understanding Earth's history. New rock layers are always deposited on top of existing rock layers. Therefore, deeper layers must be older than layers closer to the surface. This is the law of superposition.

Something that we hope you have learned from these lessons and from your own life experience is that the laws of nature never change. They are the same today as they were billions of years ago. Water freezes at 0° C at 1 atmosphere pressure; this is always true.

Knowing that natural laws never change helps scientists understand Earth’s past because it allows them to interpret clues about how things happened long ago. Geologists always use present-day processes to interpret the past. If you find a fossil of a fish in a dry terrestrial environment did the fish flop around on land? Did the rock form in water and then move? Since fish do not flop around on land today, the explanation that adheres to the philosophy that natural laws do not change is that the rock moved.
