Nana76 [90]
Olmecs <span>From 1260 BCE - 100 BCE, this civilization settled by Southern Mexico and on the shore of the Gulf of Mexico.

They had organized small villages and labor forces, making social structure easy to tell. They were a trading civilization as they had jade and obsidian. Also, colossal heads were thought to be representation of kings, for each one is different. They were polytheistic and had an organized religion. They made sacrificial rituals and had ceremonial centers, altars, and temples/palaces. They were agriculturally advanced, using irrigation, stone tools, and being able to grow maize, chili, gourds, beans, avocados, and even tomatoes.

This component of Earth's physical systems is made up of all the water on earths surface
mafiozo [28]

This component of Earth's physical systems that is made up of all the water on earths surface is known as the <u>hydrosphere</u>.

<h3>What is a hydrosphere?</h3>

In geography, the hydrosphere refers to the combined mass of water found under and above the surface of a planet, minor planet or the natural satellite. Even though the Earth's hydrosphere has been around for about 4 billion years, it stills continues to change in shape.

The change in Earth's hydrosphere is caused by seafloor spreading and continental drift which rearranges the land and ocean. Therefore, the component of Earth's physical systems that is made up of all the water on earths surface is known as the hydrosphere.

Which of Stenos principals states that layers spread out?
Vlad [161]
<span>Steno’s final principle is the “principle of lateral continuity,” which says that sediment layers spread out until they reach an obstacle that keeps them from spreading further, the way soup spreads out in a bowl until it reaches the sides of the dish. “Wherever bared edges of strata are seen,” he wrote, “either a continuation of that same strata must be looked for or another solid substance must be found that kept the material of the strata from being dispersed.”
