Answer:

More erosion in the west and more depression on the eastern side.

Explanation:

  • The east coast of the United States is known as the eastern seaboards and found along the shoreline of the Atlantic ocean.  
  • They derived the idea of about the 48 states and the region has a continental climate and warm summers and cold and snowy winter.  
  • And being a low relief and a passive margin coast is shaped by the process of the glaciation and has many offshore islands.
  • The western coast is along the northern pacific ocean and is defined by the eastern Alaska Range and Mojave desert.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

Explanation:

The Sun emits a large range of electromagnetic waves, from gamma rays (higher frequencies) to radio waves (lower frequencies), through X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves. The peak of the Sun's energy output is actually in the visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

In the graph I annexed, you can see a simplified representation of the energy emissions of the Sun versus the wavelengths of those emissions. The y-axis shows the amount of energy emitted at a given wavelength and the x-axis represents different wavelengths of EM radiation. In this graph is observable than the major emission of radiation emitted by the Sun is in the visible range.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

The following lists the steps between the Siberian traps and mass extinction. Choose the answer that puts the steps in the corre
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The correct order is: 6, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4

Explanation:

Siberian traps refers to the moment when the volcanoes of Siberia expelled a large amount of CO2 and HCl gases that are highly toxic and that promoted a mass extinction, that is, it caused the death of several living beings in a short period of time. This happened over 250 years ago and was caused by the steps:

It all started when volcanoes expelled large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which contaminated the atmosphere and caused a rise in temperature, creating strong global warming. This caused a great warming of the surface of the seas, which caused them to evaporate in great intensity and lose large amounts of oxygen and become anaerobic environments, conducive to the growth of bacteria producing hydrogen sulfide, which is a very toxic gas. This gas was released into the atmosphere, killing several living beings intoxicated with the contaminated air.
