1. Susan is a space scientist who made this diagram of the Moon and Earth, as seen from above (top view), with sunlight coming f
Sophie [7]

Answer:

d . Because Susan’s diagram is showing that the half of the Moon that is facing the sun is lit by the sun, and the other half is dark

Explanation:

We can see on the diagram on the left side arrows that show the way from which sunlight appears.<u> It only lights up the left side of the sun, while the right one stays dark.</u>

<u>The moon does not produce any light or energy on its own, so only the side that is facing the Sun at the moment is lit up. </u>That is also the only side we can see from the Earth.

Because of the way and pace Earth and moon move through space and around their own axis, we can only constantly see only one side of the moon. The other side always stays dark, and it is often called the “far side of the moon”.

The position of the sun and moon also determine the phases of the moon we see from the Earth. If more of the moon is visible, that means the moon is positioned to directly face the sun and be lit up. If we don’t see much, the sun lights up only that portion of the moon.

Using the Wilson cycle, very briefly (a sentence or two) explain the formation of mountain ranges such as the Appalachians and t
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

According to the Wilson cycle, the plate motion takes place continuously as a result of which the divergent motion of the continental plates results in the formation of the rift valley and oceans. These continuous divergent motion of continental plates results in the convergent of continental plates at some other places, which give rise to the formation of the large mountain and mountain ranges.

These Mountain ranges are the large geological landforms that are constructed due to the convergent motion of two continental tectonic plates.

For example, the Appalachians were formed due to the collision of the North American and the North African plate, about 480 million years back, which are now separated by the Atlantic ocean

The mountain belt of Urals was formed due to the collision of the eastern European and Kazakhstan continent that occurred from the late Paleozoic time to the early Triassic age.
