Ymorist [56]
The name for such a hole is "caldera" which is a word of Spanish origin meaning "a pot" or a "cooking pot" (thing of cauldron!) - and this word is used because it resembles the shape of this hole.

Often the Calderas are filled with water forming lakes and often there is an island in the middle of the water.

Why is the mesosphere colder than the thermosphere, even though it's closer to earth?
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Mesosphere lies in between 50 to 80 km above the earth surface and due to low density gases escape easily and hence it is colder.

Explanation:

Mesosphere has the capacity to not absorb the infrared radiation that's why the gases reflected from the earth surface escape the layer of mesopause and goes inside the thermosphere.

In the thermosphere, even the minute atoms of gases ca be absorbed by the layer which increases the air temperature and the air rises up hence making thermosphere as the hottest layer in the atmosphere.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

  • The southern Greenland Vikings numbering 5000 at their peak never gave up their old way of lifestyle and did not adopt that of the Northern Inuits who arrived a century later after them.
  • The study suspects that the climate factors became dominant and they were destroyed by the shifting nature of mother earth hence they starved to death and could not adapt to the present change in weather patterns this society collapsed.
  • Some theories say soil grazing and over-exploitation of land lead to the effect of black deaths and the creation of ice age. It indicated that the number of fertile women dropped and thus population could not sustain itself.

What characteristic of a slab of oceanic lithosphere leads to the formation of deep-ocean trenches instead of shallow trenches
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Densidad.

Explanation:

The greater the density of an oceanic lithosphere plate, the greater the weight of that plate. This will affect the degree of subduction of that card. The higher the density, the greater the degree of subduction and the ability of the plate to descend, forcing the creation of prominent and well-defined trenches on the ocean floor.

The density of the plaque increases as the age of the plaque increases, so we can consider age, another factor in the formation of these trenches.
