Is this question have a multiple choice? If so what are they?
Because, like shaking your head yes or no, it is understood by everyone, regardless of region or country.
Answer:
A sediment deposit close to the continental rise having a coarse material overlaid by successively finer materials of non marine origin is called a turbidite.
.
Explanation:
Turbidity current is the movement of sediment laden water . It is caused by the high density nature of sediments . The current is prevalent in oceans and lakes and it one process that transport sediments from coastal areas to deep sea.
The sediments in the current makes the flow denser and very rapid. The rapid nature of the movement of this sediment laden water causes a kind of selective deposition in deep sea. The more coarse sediments are deposited before less coarse sediments. The sediments deposited fines upward. The coarsest sediments are found at the bottom and it fine upward.
Turbidites are sediments deposited by turbidity currents which gradually change from coarse grain to fine grain sediments. The continental rise is the boundary between continents and the deep part of the oceans. This area is usually laden with sediment deposited by turbidity current. The sediments laden water moves downhill.
Answer:
9:00 am
Explanation:
Lines of longitude are imaginary lines running from the north pole to the south pole of earth. These lines are used to calculate the time in places. Also when combined with lines of latitude, they are used to give the exact location of a place.
Given the place is at 45°W longitude and the time at GMT is 12:00 noon.
Degree difference = 0° (GMT) - 45° = -45°
1° = 4 min
time difference = -45° * 4 min per degree = -180 minutes = -3 hours
Therefore the local time at a place 45°W longitude = 12:00 noon - 3 hours = 9:00 am
