Answer:

Factors if the sea level is increased rather than the temperature and pressure.

Explanation:

If the sea level rises:

1. Coastal erosion would increase and disrupt the coastal vegetation and environment. Species that depend on this environment would suffer or migrate.

2. Dissolved carbon dioxide in oceans would increase that would affect the pH of the oceans and thus would disturb the marine ecosystem.

3. Wetlands would flood and this would damage the unique ecosystem thriving here as well.

4. Ground water near the new coast would get contaminated by saline water.

5. Migration patterns of birds could change.

Ridge-and valley landscapes are created by ...
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Ridge and valley landscapes are created by the<u> tectonic movements of the tectonic plates.</u>

Explanation:

The lithosphere is a rigid outermost shell of the Earth. This lithosphere is broken into<u> tectonic plates.</u> The large scale movements of the tectonic plates result in the formation of topographic features like<u> the mountains, volcanoes, valleys, ridges and oceanic trenches. </u>

Therefore, if the tectonic plates are moving away from each other and create a split, it leads to the formation of a<u> valley</u>. Other environmental factors that can facilitate the formation of a valley are climatic weathering, water, wind erosion etc.

The formation of<u> ridges</u> generally occurs due to tectonic deformation driven by subduction zones, thrust faults, etc. Ridges can also be formed by the tectonic deformation caused by magma present in the deeper layers of the Earth. As, the magma pushes the two plates away, a ridge is formed.

When water is in the conainer the surface of the water is curved. this curve is called?
nignag [31]
<span>A meniscus is the curved surface at the top of a column of liquid. In a science class, this liquid is usually water or some sort of aqueous solution, and the column is usually a graduated cylinder or a pipet. As you may have noticed, when water is in such a thin glass tube, it does not have a flat surface at the top. Instead, the top is curved inward, making it a little difficult to decide exactly where to read the volume.</span>

Explain why the temperature decreases as altitude increases within the troposphere. Be sure to mention the name of the effect re
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The temperature decreases due to distance from the earth's surface.

Explanation:

The temperature decreases with increasing altitude in the troposphere because these air molecules are heated by the radiation and conduction of energy from Earth's surface and therefore air molecules closer to the surface have higher temperatures than molecules further from the surface.
