Answer:

Option C => They were deposited by glaciers.

Explanation:

Whenever we have a polished bedrock it is very important to know that the landscape can be found in places that are full of or has glacials. It is a process or phenomenon known as Glacial polish that causes large boulder in the area(even after the glaciers has melted). Therefore, option (C) is the correct Option in the question above.

Note that, the term " Glacial polish'' simply means the process in which the surface of bed rocks are grinded by graons and many or several pieces of rock.

A magnitude-3.0 earthquake releases just over _____ times more energy than a 1.0 magnitude earthquake.
NNADVOKAT [17]
The difference between the two mentioned magnitudes is 4.
A magnitude 1 earth-quack is 10000 times bigger than a magnitude -3 earth-quack. On the other hand, it is 1000000 times stronger in terms of energy release.

Note: To calculate the difference in energy between two earth-quacks, first you calculate the difference between their magnitudes and then you raise 10 to the output you obtain.

What are some pros and cons of attempting to forecast earthquakes/volcanoes?
sineoko [7]
Well first, cons

1.) We can't forecast the timing, so that's a biggie. The prospects of forecasting the timing for earthquakes is quite dim at the moment and not in the foreseable future.
2.)Unless you predict earthquakes 100% of the time then improper forecasting can actually result in fatalities and lifeloss.
3.)If we could predict earthquakes, there would be some huge societal implications. For instance Hurricane Katrina was predicted several days out but that didn't result in a wholly successful evacuation of New Orleans which was biased against the poor.
4.)Accurate forecasting would not change the need for preparedness and good building codes. The ground is still going to shake, buildings still need to resist lateral seismic forces, people still need to be prepared for not having gas, water, telecom, electricity, for a certain amount of time.

And pros,

It would relieve some peoples anxiety about "when the big one" is going to hit. But then that would turn into "how big is the big one" anxiety.

The questions you ask can be considered similar to "what are the pros and cons of forecasting when each of us will die". It doesn't change the fact, just what and how we worry about it.
