Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.

A car goes from rest to a velocity of 108 km/h north in 10s what is the car's acceleration in m/s2
fomenos

initial velocity of the car given as

v_i = 0

final velocity is given as

v_f = 108 km/h

as we know that

1 km/h = 0.277 m/s

now we can convert final speed into m/s

v_f = 108 * 0.277 = 30 m/s

now acceleration is rate of change in velocity

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{30 - 0}{10}

a = 3 m/s^2

so the acceleration of the car is 3 m/s^2

How can you change the phases of matter using thermal energy
Leokris [45]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance.

Whats the difference between identical and fraternal twins
IrinaK [193]
Twin type has less to do with what twins look like and more to do with how they formed.
Identical, or monozygotic, twins form when a single fertilized egg splits and develop as two babies in the uterus. Identical twins originate from the same combination of cells and have the same genetic origin. They are ALWAYS the same sex, two girls/two boys. They may look very similar and it may be difficult to tell them apart.
Fraternal, or dizygotic, twins are two individuals from the same pregnancy who from TWO SEPARATE eggs fertilized by TWO SEPARATE SPERM. The genetic similarity between fraternal twins is the same as any two siblings, about 50 percent. They can be boys, girls, or one of each.
