The correct answer is letter d. none of the above. The choices presented are possible cause of soil erosion. Soil erosion happens when a big boulder of rocks and soils coming from a mountain slide down because of external forces just like water (specifically during heavy rains), gravity, and as well as burrowing animals.

The correct answer is; d. none of the above

Erosion is a process in which there is gradual wearing away of the earth surface by the action of natural elements such as water, wind, glacial ice and gravity. Burrowing animals, gravity and water are all possible cause of erosion. Burrowing animals are animals that create a hole or tunnel in the ground to provide suitable habitat or a byproduct of movement. The foot of hard-footed animals such as cattle and horses can create hole in the ground when the animals are walking. This makes the soil to become soft. Water or wind can erode the soil by transporting it to another location.

Earth science please help

Answer:

Geomorphological processes and resultant topography are related with glacial, aeolian, fluvial and ground water movement.

Outwash plain: deposited mostly by water from melting glaciers.
Sand dunes: not related to glaciation
Offshore bar: not related to glaciation
Moraine: deposited by glaciers

Explanation:

Each and every geomorphological process has three types work. For e.g. erosional work, transportational work and depositional work.

Outwash plain produced by fluvio-glacial depositional work where firstly glaciers melt and then the water flows and deposits sediments in a flat area.

Moraine produced by glacial deposition. Glaciers carry sediments (pebbles, cobbles) and when it deposits in the valley floor it results a distinguished landform i.e. moraine.

Sand dunes produced by aeolian action (depositional work). When wind receives obstacle in the form of tree or stone in its way it deposits sand in desert area and produce sand dunes.

Offshore bar produced by marine processes. when sediments deposited in the coastal area in a huge quantity and friction take place between the wave and sea floor it creates offshore bar.

Mountain range that runs through central italy

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Apennines Mountain Range

Explanation:

Italy's landscape is dominated by one physical feature in most of the country, and that is the Apennines Mountain Range. This mountain range runs through the central part of the country, being parallel with the stretching of the western and eastern coastlines. Because it is the most marking feature in the peninsula, the peninsula got its name after it. The Apennines are very long mountain range for European standards, stretching for 1,200 km, from the Ligurian Alps in the northwest, to Reggio di Calabria in the southeast. This mountain range is divided into three parts, northern, central, and southern. The highest point of these mountains is 2,912 meters.
