Why is earth spherical in shape​

Geography
1 answer:
makkiz [27]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The Earth is massive enough that the pull of gravity maintains its roughly spherical shape. Most of its deviation from spherical stems from the centrifugal force caused by rotation around its north-south axis. This force deforms the sphere into an oblate ellipsoid.

Basalt is a rock that cooled quickly after lava erupted through a volcano.What is the best description of its texture
Alja [10]
Hi,

Basalt is a rock that cooled quickly after lava erupted through a volcano. Basalt is a fine-grained rock. Fine-grained means a rock has smaller components of which the larger ones are composed. Extrusive rocks are usually fine-grained. When magma comes up to the surface and solidifies it forms fine-grained rocks like basalt.

Human activities can add which following to the atmosphere?
algol13

Answer:

d. carbon dioxide

Explanation:

The human activities contribute to lot of emissions of numerous different gasses into the atmosphere. The gasses that are released the most though are the greenhouse gasses, especially carbon dioxide.

The reason why the carbon dioxide is the gas that is added the most to the atmosphere by the humans is because the humans use fossil fuels. The fossil fuels run the economies around the world, so they are crucial to the industry, but also for the transportation, and travelling, being also used more and more in the agriculture too.

When the fossil fuels are burned they release carbon dioxide, as their basic component is carbon, so when they burn the carbon interacts with oxygen and creates lot of carbon dioxide.

The result of this is contributing to the global warming, as the more greenhouse gasses there are, the higher the temperatures become on global level.
