4 0

Answer:

C. A steep slope

Explanation:

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth or the gathering of lose weathered materials from rock surfaces.

Agents of erosion are wind, water, glacier and gravity.

Along a very steep slope, erosion is highly rife and very prevalent to the extent that everything there is washed away to be deposited at the bottom of the slope or where gradient is more gentle.

On a steep slope, materials moves rapidly and gravity is very great. When these factors are coupled with the prevailing conditions in a place, little to no deposition occurs for soil formation.

An outbreak occurs where the first case is detected on October 15th, the last case is detected on October 27th, and the peak is
aksik [14]

Answer:

12-14 october

Explanation:

The probable period of exposure is calculated as follows:

  1. Know  the range of the incubation period
  2. Start counting back from the days of the first case by subtracting the first number of incubation period range
  3. Count back the days from the last case by subtracting the last number of incubation period range.
  4. This will give a range which will be the period of exposure.

From the question,

  • Incubation period range 1-15
  • Date of first case = october 15
  • Therefore, first date of exposure = 15 -1 = 14
  • Date of last case = 22
  • Therefore, last date of exposure = 27 - 15 = 12
  • Thus, the range is 12-14 october which is the probable period of exposure.

leonid [27]

Listening to Earth is an article about the study of the plate boundaries using hydrophones which make noises and different sounds.

When colorblind women married a male with normal vision, all their daughters have normal vision and all their sons are colorblin
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

X-linked recessive

Explanation:

The trait is a sex-linked trait because the daughters are not colorblind, but the sons are. We know this its recessive because the daughters have inherited the mother's X chromosome that has the colourblindness trait, but are not colorblind because the father's X does not have the colourblindness trait. The sons are colourblind because they inherited the X from their mother with the colourblindnese trait and a Y from their father. The colourblindness trait or normal vision trait is not carried on the Y, so the mother's X chromosome's trait is expressed.

Sorry if it's confusing i tried my best to explain it

Cartilage and bone, two key types of supporting connective tissue, assist the body to maintain its posture and protect internal organs.

The collenchyma, which is made up of living cells, the sclerenchyma, which is made up almost entirely of dead cells, and the vascular tissue, which is made up of both living and dead cells. It's in charge of transporting and dispersing water, nutrients, and assimilates.
