Part of the brain,superior and anterior to the brain stem. Inferior to the thalamus a section of the brain responsible for hormone production. Also responsible for the direct control of the endocrine system through the pituitary gland.
Heating of the Earth due to the Sun's rays causes convection currents of air upwards. The warm air moves upwards, while cool air from nearby regions fills in the lower areas.
<span>Heating of the Earth can cause warm water currents that flow from hot areas like near the equator and tropical areas, while cold water currents flow from the arctic and antarctic regions and the temperate regions. </span>
Answer:
All natural soils are heterogeneous mixtures because no two nature soil samples will have the precise proportions of its inherent components.
Explanation:
An isotonic solution is a solution in which the amount of dissolved material is equal both inside and outside of the cell. Water still flows in both directions, but an equal amount enters and leaves the cell. Hope this helps. :)
Answer:
1. As temperature and pressure increases, density increases
Explanation:
The earth is composed of three main layers: Crust, Mantle and Core. The density or mass per unit volume of the earth's layers increases as one moves from the surface towards the interior of the earth known as the core. Also, there is an increase in pressure and temperature as depth increases. There are three main sources of heat in the earth's core: (1) conserved heat from when the planet formed and coalesced, (2) heat due to friction caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet, and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.
The earth's core is composed almost entirely of the metals, iron and nickel. The core has an inner solid layer and a molten outer core. Iron and nickel are both very dense metals, so the core of the earth is very dense and the density increases with depth with the inner core being the most dense layer of the earth.
