Answer:
F Anthracite (the hardest coal)
Explanation:
Coal is a sedimentary rock that is formed from plant materials. These plant materials must have been trapped and compacted in an environment where they are not able decay. Such an environment is a swamp.
The first grade of coal that forms initially in such an environment is called PEAT. Peat is soft coal that still contains some plant materials. It has a high moisture content and the amount of carbon is still quite low.
With increasing pressure and compaction, PEAT grades into LIGNITE which has more carbon atoms in it. Lignite is more combustible although it is quite soft too. Lignite grades into SUB-BITUMINOUS coal and then BITUMIOUS coal.
The highest grade of coal is ANTHRACITE which is a hard coal. It has very little moisture content and rich carbon percentage in it. Anthracite yields more energy compared to other forms of coal. Anthracite is basically coal that forms at the greastest pressure. Beyond this pressure, a metamorphic transformation occurs and the coals changes to graphite.
Based on increasing pressure:
PEAT< LIGNITE< BITUMINOUS COAL < ANTHRACITE
People have also made huge changes to other natural vegetation regions. ... As you read in Chapter 2, human activities are contributing to climate change. Changes in climate are causing changes in vegetation patterns around the world. For example, rising temperatures are causing many plant species to migrate.
Where is the map for this question?
Explanation:
we can protect soil quality by the following ways:
1.plantation should be done.
2.chemicals should not be used.
3.using earthworm in the field as it makes the soil fertile
4.construction of dams should be made which prevents soil erosion.
hope u get it!
Answer:
The rapid increase in ocean heat content has led to around 19mm of sea level rise just from thermal expansion between 1993 and 2010, around a third of the total increase of 54mm.

Because why not ;)
