The landforms in the interior of the continents and at their margins mostly differ because of the difference in geological activity.

Explanation:

The landforms that are found in the interior of the continents tend to be old. They also are mostly consisted of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. In general the erosion is much more evident and dominant, thus the landforms also are with lower elevations when compared with the ones on the edges. This is due to the lack of geological activity as the interiors of the continents tend to be far away from the plate boundaries.

The landforms on the edges of the continents tend to be younger in general. The reason for that are the subduction zones and intense geological activity. The intense geological activity is due to the close proximity of the plate boundaries. The landforms tend to be higher in general, and volcanic arcs are also a common sight.

Which feature is the result of a glacier carving out rock as it moves?
slavikrds [6]
The features that result as a form of a glacier carving out rock and forms into the landscape over which it slides are called cirques. When a glacier moves it erodes the surface of the earth beneath it. In this process of erosion large boulders and very small pebbles all get caught up in the path of the glacier and move along with it. This moment causes deep depressions into the earth, changing the landscape. The deposition of rocks and silt from a melting glacier also changes the form of the land over which the glacier moves.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

No, <u>Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium is a theory that states the allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant irrespective of the sexs.</u>

Explanation:

  • Derivations from the HWE Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium assume that organisms are diploid, population size is infinite, and mating is random.
  • In all the equilibrium the four fundamental factors like the selection, mutation, random mating including interbreeding and small population size. So, if the number of heterozygotes is 34 then the significant level is 0.067.
  • So higher the significance level higher is the heterozygotes. In the absence of selection and genetic drift, all the frequencies within variables are constant. This principle was named by G, H Hardy.
