Answer:

Deserts are created by the process of "weathering". The temperature differences between the day and the night adds pressure on rocks thus creating the rocks smaller and smaller.The wind soothes down the sand and levels it.Several small such grains form dunes.

List an example on Earth of the feature faulting creates.
NikAS [45]
Normal fault - a dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below. This type of faulting occurs in response to extension and is often observed in the Western United States Basin and Range Province and along oceanic ridge systems.

thrust fault - a dip-slip fault in which the upper block, above the fault plane, moves up and over the lower block. This type of faulting is common in areas of compression, such as regions where one plate is being subducted under another as in Japan. When the dip angle is shallow, a reverse fault is often described as a thrust fault.

strike-slip fault - a fault on which the two blocks slide past one another. The San Andreas Fault is an example of a right lateral fault.

Strike-slip Fault Animation

A left-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the left when viewed from either side.

A right-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the right when viewed from either side.

Which of the Jovian planets experiences a dramatic seasonal change?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

A. Jupiter.

Explanation:

  • As Jupiter has the largest planetary atmosphere its lacks a clear boundary and gradually transitions to the liquid interior of the planet.  Having their temperature gradient.
  • The jovian atmosphere has a large range of active phenomena including the band instabilities and anticyclones, and cyclones and storms and lightning.
  • These cyclones are large red, or brown such as the Great red spot of Jupiter.  Hence,  Jupiter has the most powerful type of storms being accompanied by the convection in the atmosphere as the striking of lightning from the clouds in 10 times more stronger than on earth.
  • Jupiter also consists of upper clouds, located in the low-pressure range are made of ammonia ice. Auroras are a permanent feature of the Jupiter's atmosphere based on the exiting models temperature predictions of the atmosphere are no higher than 400k.
  • Strong jets have been observed at the equator of the by the deep models. Temperature and winds are found to rise from the equator to the poles, thus confined within zones. As a comparison to the anticyclones, the jovian cyclones tend to be small dark and irregular.
