Answer:

D) Ocean waves

Explanation:

Barrier islands are types of landforms that are created or formed when ocean currents which act as an agent of erosion, deposit sediments such as sands, rock particles opposite or parallel to the mainland coast.

Barrier Islands tend to be flat in shape and have dune present in them.

They help to protect the coastal areas from storms that can cause flooding and erosion.

Barrier Islands can be found along the southern coast of Long Island, New York.

Write three facts you discovered about patterns of heredity and human genetics

If two parents have dark hair, the child will most likely have dark hair.
If one has light and the other dark, the child has a 75% chance of having dark hair or a dark-dominated mix because the gene for dark hair is dominant.
If two parents have light hair, the child will most likely have light hair.

Of course, it gets a lot more complicated than this, the genes of the child's grandparents and great grandparents could be carried by the parents as well. So if the parents have dark hair but they each have a parent with light hair, the light hair gene will be carried by them and could be passed on to the child. That's how it is with genetic disorders, such as Systic Fibrosis or Sickle Cell Anemia.

The moon causes the earths Rotation to speed up / slow down which ?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer: slow down

Explanation:As Earth rotates, the Moon's gravity causes the oceans to seem to rise and fall. (The Sun also does this, but not as much.) There is a little bit of friction between the tides and the turning Earth, causing the rotation to slow down just a little. As Earth slows, it lets the Moon creep away.

How does pH affect cells and cellular processes
wel
The slightest change in pH can destroy the substance or organism. The pH of a cell's interior helps regulate the cell's chemical reactions. For example, the pH of blood is 7.4, if blood falls to 6.8 or lower or 8.2 or higher, it results in death.
