The air masses that have the greatest influence on weather conditions in the Midwestern United States are continental polar.
This air masses come from the north, they are heavy, low, cold and predominantly dry air masses, and are most intense in the colder part of the year. But they are not the only one, even though they are the dominant ones, the tropical warm and wet climate also has a big influence, especially in the warmer part of the year, and it's influence is gradually increasing.
Incomplete question. The Options read;
a) Is about one-hundred-million years old.
b) Is 4.6 billion years old.
c) Has been here forever.
d) Is less than about one-hundred-million years old.
e) Is more than about one-hundred-million years old.
Answer:
e) Is more than about one-hundred-million years old.
Explanation:
<em>Remember, </em>we are talking about the information available some two to three hundred years ago when there was no modern geological equipment for radioactive elements tracing.
Hence, using uniformitarian calculations from the thickness of known sedimentary rocks, <u>the geologists concluded that the Earth must be more than about one-hundred-million years old.</u> However, modern researchers today have concluded the Earth to be <u>not </u>millions but billions of years old.
Answer:
estimated CEC for given hypothetical soil is 26.25 meq/100g.
Explanation:
Average CEC in smectite = 62.5 meq/100g. Since it ranges from(25-100 meq/100g)
Average CEC in kaolinite = 10 meq/100g.
Average CEC in organic matter = 325meq/100g.
Range(250-400 meq/100g).
Estimated CEC for given soil will be,
= 26.25 meq/100g.
