5. Which of the following causes Earth to experience daytime and nighttime?
Vlada [557]

The correct answer is The rotation of the Earth

Explanation:

Besides orbiting around the Sun which leads to seasons, Earth is all the time rotation on its axis, this movement occurs eastward and the movement is completed every 24 hours, due to this, a day is considered to last 24 hours. Besides this, due to the rotation of Earth different zones or areas in the planet are directly exposed to the sunlight during different periods, which leads to daytime and nighttime, considering daytime as the period in which a zone is illuminated by the Sun while in the nighttime the zone remains in the dark. Additionally, this phenomenon also explains why daytime and nighttime do not occur at the same time on all Earth. Thus, it is the rotation of the Earth the one that causes Earth to experience daytime and nighttime.

Scientist have found fossils of ocean-dwelling or marine animals in the mountains of Pennsylvania. What does finding fossils of
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Before mountain building occurred, the area was underwater.

Explanation:

Through excavation, fossils that are of marine animals are often found high on mountain ranges. This seems weird from today's perspective, as marine animals can only be found in ocean waters, and there is no way they can travel on land and upon the mountains. Earth has changed a lot throughout history though, so such occurances are actually not that weird.

The mountains in Pennsylvania are such a place, with an abundance of marine fossils. When we look at the geological past of what is now Pennsylvania we can easily see why this is the case. The whole area was actually underwater for millions of years. This was the case before mountain building occurred here when part of the ocean floor raised high above the surface of the water and created land. As the crust was going up, the fossils on it went up as well.
