Answer:
Explanation:
Abyssal plain : very level area of the deep-ocean floor typically lying at the foot of the continental rise G
Guyot: A submerged flat-topped seamount H
Deep-ocean basin: portion of the seafloor between the continental margin and oceanic ridge; comprises 30 percent of Earth's surface C
Continental Volcanic Arc: Mountains are formed in part by igneous activity associated with the subduction of oceanic lithosphere beneath a continent A
Deep-Ocean Trench: Long, relatively narrow crease in the seafloor that forms the deepest parts of the ocean. D
Oceanic Plateau: extensive region of the ocean floor with thick accumulation of pillow basalts and other mafic rock E
Seamounts: An isolated volcanic peak that rises above the deep-ocean floor
Volcanic island arc: A chain of volcanic islands generally located a few hundred kilometers from a tench where active subduction of one oceanic slab beneath another is occuring; some trenches run parallel to an arc shapes row of active volcanoes
Answer:
prohibits the introduction of invasive species
controls the kind of waste and pollutants allowed
assesses human influence on the environment
designates protected zones on the continent
Explanation:
These four key terms are some of what the Madrid Protocol includes.
Prohibiting the introduction of invasive species keeps the ecosystem from being dominated and/or destroyed by a single species that the ecosystem is not built to handle.
Controlling the kind of waste and pollutants allowed on the continent ensures that the environment remains stable without the influence of outside chemicals, such as oil or carbon emissions that could harm the ecosystems.
Assessing human influence on the environment keeps track who does what and how they do it, essentially preventing extreme human action from being taken so as to preserve Antarctica's natural order.
Designating protected zones on the continent that can only be accessed with special permits ensures that only people who require access for research or whatnot, or more simply, qualified personnel, are able to enter these zones, so as to keep contact down to a minimum and further preserve Antarctica's natural environment.
Answer:
A right triangle can be considered as a special type because the relationship of its sides can be described using the hypotenuse formula: c^2 = a^2 + b^2 or c^2 = x^2 + y^2 where, c is the hypotenuse of the triangle and is the side opposite to the 90° angle while a and b are the sides adjacent to the 90° angle.
In the problem statement, we are given that one of the side has a measure of 2 = x, while the hypotenuse is 5 = c, therefore calculating for y: y^2 = c^2 – x^2 y^2 = 5^2 – 2^2 y^2 = 21 y = 4.58
Explanation:
The natural number is the number before the decimal. Therefore the answer is: y = 4
The correct answer is - the air.
The Namib Desert is one of the driest places on the planet and that is due to the cold and dry ocean currents alongside the southwestern part of Africa which are not providing the right conditions for precipitation to occur.
Even though there's no rain, because the Namib Desert is very hot, and the ocean currents very cold, the end result is mist that appears every morning, as well as dew.
The plants living in this desert have evolved in accordance to the conditions, so instead of being dependent on their roots for getting water, they get the majority of the water through their leafs and skin, directly from the air.
