Describe how chemicals can be completely cycled abiotically using only geologic processes?

Geography

jolli1 [7]3 years ago
6 0

In a hypothetical scenario, though it is possible if the conditions are right, the chemicals can be cycled totally strictly by the abiotic factors caused by the geologic processes. The new chemicals will come on the scene as a product of the geologic processes, like with the rising of the magma on the divergent plate boundaries. As the magma piles up more and more material, the ones that have been formed are pushed sideways, further away from the source. This actually is making the tectonic plates move. The chemicals that have been formed are in a situation where they are constantly pushed away by the source that formed them. As millions of years pass, those chemicals will start nearing a different type of plate boundary, a convergent one. As they are further pushed toward that boundary, they will start to subduct bellow the plate, moving downwards toward the mantle. As they reach the mantle, they are melted, practically recycled, with high chance of coming out on the surface on another place of the planet int he future.

The majority of the energy processes at the earth’s surface comes from the earth’s internal energy
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

True, majority of the earth energy source comes from the <u>internal motion</u> but rest comes from outside.

Explanation:

  • Earth gets its energy from the interior of the planet like the core which forms the most essential driving force of the planet it not just only regulate the flow of geomaterial from the bottom to the top but also acts as a geothermal source for various energy process.
  • As we know this is called the Endogenetic force of the planet caused due to the earth rotation without which earth would have been dead long ago. The external forces of Denudation which break down the landscape from above are of Exogenic in nature.  
  • The sun's rays that are 100% at the surface of the earth but, come down o only 50% at the ground level as most of it gets deflected by the natural Albedo of the earth with is 35%. This partial absorption, deflection, and then reflection  
  • Thus this process is a temporary phase as all this gets reradiated back in a long wave from at night.
  • Thus internal thermodynamics has a huge role to play in the formation of earth energy processes.

How are hills different from mountains
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Hills are easier to climb than mountains. They are less steep and not as high. But, like a mountain, a hill will usually have an obvious summit, which is its highest point. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there is no official difference between hills and mountains.
