East of South America in the Northern and Southern Hemisphere
Major physical features in Latin America include Central and South America.
Central America and the Caribbean consists of the Isthmus of Panama land strip, islands, forests, deserts, and mountains (including the Rocky Mountains).
South America includes the Amazon rainforest (the largest in the world), the Andes Mountains (the longest mountain range in the world), the Pampas grassland area, and the southernmost cold windy Patagonia area (near Antarctica).
Answer:
<u>Olivines an Pyroxene, and 5 to 10% of calcium oxides and aluminium oxides</u>.
Explanation:
- The upper mantle of the earth begins just 10 kilometers below the surface of the lithosphere and under the ocean about 35 km and ends to the lower mantel at 670 km.
- Here the temperature range from 200 to 900 degrees celsius, at the boundary is composed of 55% of olivines and 35% of pyroxenes, minerals such as garnet and spinal are also found.
- Lehmann discontinuity is which is an abrupt change caused by the p and s waves occurs at the depth of 220 km. In the upper mantel and lower crust, there exists a discontinuity called the Gutenberg discontinuity.
- Mantel forms the rigid liquid sphere on which the slabs move.
Answer:
Chemical weathering
Explanation:
Chemical weathering is the process that involves the breakdown of rock particles into smaller fragment through the action of chemical compounds/substances such as acid, base etc.
In the scenario above it is understood that the rock on Stone Mountain has fungi (like lichen) growing on it and the acids are breaking down the rock which validates the answer.
