Answer: Sand and gravel deposits.

Explanation:

Glaciation is a natural phenomenon in which the temperature of the earth drops considerably over a long period, this causes the glaciers of the poles to expand to cover large extensions of continental and oceanic terrain.

When the temperature rises again and the ice from the glaciers recedes, large deposits of sand and gravel are formed. This is because the deglazing process is slow, and the retreating glaciers remove the surface layers of the earth, therefore mineral deposits are formed. Also, the deglaciation process forms rivers and lakes that leave large deposits of sand and gravel.

pochemuha

Answer:

Yes, it does.

Explanation:

All of the continents that are seperate today were in the form of a single giant continent up until approximately 175 million years ago.

They drifted apart in time because of the molten lava that is constantly flowing right underneath the earth's hardened shell. Also, archeological discoveries that indicate the same species of animals/plants lived on different continents such as Europe and America long before humans or intercontinental travel were around.

I hope this answer helps.

List five processes by which rocks can change from one form to another?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The five process bu which rocks can change from one form to another are -

1. Weathering   2.  Metamorphism  3. Cooling and crystallization  4. Lithification of sediments  5. Igneous rocks change into metamorphic rocks

Explanation:

The processes by which rocks can change from one form to another are as follows :

1. Weathering : It wears/breaks down the rocks at the surface of Earth’s into smaller pieces.

2. Metamorphism : This changes the entire texture as well as the mineral composition of the rock under conditions of extremely high temperature and pressure.

3. Cooling and crystallization from a molten magma material results in the generation of igneous rocks.

4. Lithification of sediments with proper compaction and cementation leads to the formation of consolidated sedimentary rocks.

5. Igneous rocks change into metamorphic rocks when subjected to high temperature and pressure conditions deep inside the Earth.

Why does the oceanic crust sink beneath the continental crust at the subduction zone
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

oceanic crust sinks because it is denser and has higher specific gravity than the more silicon aluminum enriched continental crust. What drives substitution is convection and conduction in outer core of earth, that heat , only a small part of which is due radioactive isotopes, has to make it's way to Earth's surface by both conduction and convection. Iron and nickel o have the highest specific gravities of the 10 most common elements in the Milky Way Galaxy. This is why oceanic crust sinks and is subducted continental crust has to have a lot more force applied before it inks, because it doesn't want to sink.
