natka813 [3]

Answer:

b. thrive during the summer, when sunlight increases

Explanation:

Phytoplankton production is highly associated with latitude and season. In polar regions, phytoplankton production is reduced to the summer (and eventually spring) season. In consequence, the zooplankton that eats phytoplankton only can survive during the spring and summer seasons. On the other hand, in tropical areas, there exists a nearly constant phytoplankton production all year round.

Answer:

1. C.

2. D

3. D.

4. D.

Explanation:

1. Landslides can be initiated in slopes already on the verge of movement by rainfall, snowmelt, changes in water level, stream erosion, changes in ground water, earthquakes, volcanic activity, disturbance by human activities, or any combination of these factors.

2. Landslides are geologic phenomena that can happen suddenly or through imperceptively slow downslope movement. ... A "translational" landslide can happen rapidly and result in all of the soil on a hillside being stripped off and filling the area at the bottom of the slope.

3. Sedimentary rock contains fossils because it was built up layer upon layer, often trapping and preserving animals, plants, footprints, and more within the layers of sediment.

4. The Uplift of the Colorado Plateau. The Kaibab Limestone, the uppermost layer of rock at Grand Canyon, was formed at the bottom of the ocean. ... The action of plate tectonics lifted the rocks high and flat, creating a plateau through which the Colorado River could cut down.
