Answer:
Geomorphological processes and resultant topography are related with glacial, aeolian, fluvial and ground water movement.
- Outwash plain: <em>deposited mostly by water from melting glaciers.</em>
- Sand dunes: <em>not related to glaciation</em>
- Offshore bar: <em>not related to glaciation</em>
- Moraine: <em>deposited by glaciers</em>
Explanation:
Each and every geomorphological process has three types work. For e.g. erosional work, transportational work and depositional work.
- Outwash plain produced by fluvio-glacial depositional work where firstly glaciers melt and then the water flows and deposits sediments in a flat area.
- Moraine produced by glacial deposition. Glaciers carry sediments (pebbles, cobbles) and when it deposits in the valley floor it results a distinguished landform i.e. moraine.
- Sand dunes produced by aeolian action (depositional work). When wind receives obstacle in the form of tree or stone in its way it deposits sand in desert area and produce sand dunes.
- Offshore bar produced by marine processes. when sediments deposited in the coastal area in a huge quantity and friction take place between the wave and sea floor it creates offshore bar.
Answer:
Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).
The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.
The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.
Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.
The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)
The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.
As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.
The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.
Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.

Answer:
The path of a total eclipse that is swept out by the umbra shadow of the moon on the earth. The umbra is the dark center portion of a shadow. The Moon's umbra causes total solar eclipses, and the Earth's umbra is involved in total and partial lunar eclipses.

The answer is Portugal. The Eastern Europen countries that lie in the Balkan peninsula are Balkan states. Portugal is located in the West of Europe. Balkan countries are located in the southeastern of Europe; composed of 12 countries. These states are close to the Black Sea. The Northern boundary of the peninsula varies (hence also the number of states considered Balkan) especially influenced by historical and political connotations. This is why Turkey is also considered Balkan country.
<span>If you see a very tall, rock feature that looks like a jagged, rectangular block sticking out of the ground, you're probably observing a volcanic neck. Also known as a lava neck or volcanic plug, a volcanic neck is formed when magma solidifies within a vent of an active volcano. This can harness great amounts of pressures which could lead to an explosive eruption.</span>
