Your question could mean one of two different things.
You could be asking "How do I figure out the longitude and latitude
of, let's say, Killeen, Texas."
The answer to that is: You look on a map or a globe that has latitude
and longitude lines printed on it, find Killeen, Texas, and estimate its
coordinates as well as you can from the lines printed nearest to it.
Or you could be asking "If I'm out in the middle of the ocean at night,
how do I figure out the longitude and latitude of where I am ?"
I'm afraid the answer to that is far too complicated to write here.
All I can say is: The science of "Navigation" was developed over a period
of hundreds of years. If you look at the history of sea exploration through
the centuries, you see how the explorers ventured farther and farther from
their home ports as time went on. The reason for that is that they were
developing better and better methods of figuring out where they were as
they sailed.
And about 20 years ago, that all changed. Drastically. Now, anybody at all
can walk into his neighborhood sporting-goods store, and buy a little device
that fits in his shirt pocket or in the palm of his hand, and whenever he has a
view of the sky, it can give him the latitude and longitude of the place where
he's standing, more accurately than the best navigators in the US Navy or
the British Armada could ever calculate it before.
That was when countries started putting up bunches of little satellites
to broadcast signals to our pocket receivers.
The satellites that the US put up are called the Global Positioning System . . .
the GPS.
The answer for One of the defining aspects of mass extinctions in that natural selection forces do not play a role in the outcome is False
In general, physical weathering from temperature changes is most common on the shorelines, because waves are able to take down rocks that have been weathers. They would be least noticeable inland, in desert areas with little forestation.

Biochemical sedimentary rocks are sedimentary rocks created by the buildup of organic carbon (dead plant debris) in low-oxygen conditions (such as swamps).
When organisms utilize elements dissolved in air or water to develop their tissue, biochemical sedimentary rocks form. The calcareous skeletons of creatures such as corals, mollusks, and foraminifera are used to make most varieties of limestone.
Shells and bodies of submerged creatures are used to build biochemical sedimentary rocks. Chemical components from the water are extracted by living creatures and used to form shells and other body parts. Aragonite, a mineral related to and usually replaced by calcite, and silica are among the constituents.
