Explanation:
The water cycle basically involves five steps:
- evaporation and transpiration ⇄
- condensation, ⇄
- precipitation, ⇄
- runoff, ⇄
- infiltration ⇄
So when a <u>thunderstorm </u>occurs it <em>helps in completing the precipitation process </em>by enabling the release of water vapor stored up in the atmosphere to fall on the ground as rain.
After this, the water <em>runoffs </em><em>to the surface of the ground, on plants, into rocks, rivers, and lakes.</em>
Next, the <em>Infiltration process</em> enables the water on the ground surface to enter the soil some of which becomes groundwater.
The cycle begins again as the<em> </em><em>evaporation and transpiration</em> <em>process </em>begins, where the groundwater as a result of heat from the sun is taken back into the atmosphere, while water in plants by means of transpiration goes back <em>into the atmosphere</em>.
It then <em>condenses </em>and falls back as precipitation again.
Answer: Cross-cutting features are always younger than the surrounding rock.
When material erodes before sediment is deposited on it, a geologic gap results.
Explanation:
The options include:
1. An unconformity is created when lava pours out on Earth’s surface.
2. Faults are the result of volcanic activity.
3. Intrusions and extrusions are sedimentary formations.
4. Cross-cutting features are always younger than the surrounding rock.
5. When material erodes before sediment is deposited on it, a geologic gap results.
The law of superposition simply states that when there is a layers of rocks, we would see that the younger layers will lie and be on top of the layers that are older.
Other tools that can help scientist with relative dating are:
• Cross-cutting features are always younger than the surrounding rock.
• When material erodes before sediment is deposited on it, a geologic gap results.
Answer:
All of the arrows pointing up that have a red box NOT the arrow pointing down with a red box. (if the blue squigglies on the water are arrows then they count too, the picture is not too clear)
Explanation:
Planets orbit the sun in the paths which are known as elliptical orbit. Each planet has its own orbit around the sun and direction in which all the planets orbit around the sun are the same. These orbits were well explained by the astronomer Kepler. The gravity of the Sun keeps the planets in their orbits. They stay in their orbits because there is no other force in the Solar System which can stop them.
I believe scattering is what occurs when light essentially changes direction after colliding with small particles of matter.
