This question is incomplete because the options are not given; here is the complete question:

Which phrase describes a sill?

A. Fills in valleys and rivers

B. Is a hardened magma intrusion

C. Cuts vertically through older rock layers

D. Is built up by numerous eruptions over thousands of years

The correct answer is B. Is a hardened magma intrusion

Explanation:

Sills are horizontal layers in the soil that form as a result of magma. Also, sills are considered sheet intrusion because the hardened magma gets into older rock layers or soil layers and cuts the rocks horizontally. Moreover, the type of intrusion is studied by geologists to understand the formation and age of soil layers and this differs from other intrusions due to its composition and horizontal formation. According to this, the correct answer is B.

Answer: The Turquoise Lake as seen nowadays in Colorado is a result of the 1850´s modern warming climate transition, lingering away from the Little Ice Age times occurred 500 years ago. This given period was characterized by snow blowing winds that  accumulated ice through thermal compaction, generating the glaciers as we see them.

Explanation: Terminal and recessional moraines are the terminus of a glacial feature. Moraines are the sedimentar charges carried by melted glacials. Consequence of those is the repositioning of the snow downwards the valleys. The ice, initially attached to the glaciers and mountain tops, undergoes melting by seasonal and/or climate transition warming, resulting on circumstancial water deposits that place on the basin/lower areas of the mountain chains, forming lakes.

Describe the water that is most likely to float on the surface of the ocean.
natima [27]
It is B, <span>In fact, water will sink as it cools until a certain point. If I recall correctly this is around 39 F. As the temp gets lower than that water actually begins to expand and becomes less dense. This is why ice floats, which we should all be thankful for. If ice didn't float than all water on earth would likely freeze solid and life would have probably never evolved past small single celled things.</span>

Compare the housing styles of Iceland and Vietnam and explain how the environment influences these styles.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer: Yes, what you put is correct...

Explanation: Icelandic houses are built out of wood with grass growing over them, whereas Vietnamese homes are typically built minimally using reeds, etc. The main difference is that where the grass insulates from the cold (I’ve been in one and they really work!) the houses in Vietnam are built to keep all occupants as cool as possible.
