Geography

8 0

Explanation:

The Earth is closest to the Sun every January, but it is the fact that the north pole of the Earth's axis is tilted away from the Sun at that time of year which causes it to be winter in the northern hemisphere. B. Given the effects of precession, will this still be the case in 13,000 years?

Answer:The law of superposition states that rock strata (layers) farthest from the ground surface are the oldest (formed first) and rock strata (layers) closest to the ground surface are the youngest (formed most recently). A fossil is the remains or traces of plants and animals that lived long ago.

Explanation:

Law of Superposition

The relative ages of rocks are important for understanding Earth's history. New rock layers are always deposited on top of existing rock layers. Therefore, deeper layers must be older than layers closer to the surface. This is the law of superposition.

Something that we hope you have learned from these lessons and from your own life experience is that the laws of nature never change. They are the same today as they were billions of years ago. Water freezes at 0° C at 1 atmosphere pressure; this is always true.

Knowing that natural laws never change helps scientists understand Earth’s past because it allows them to interpret clues about how things happened long ago. Geologists always use present-day processes to interpret the past. If you find a fossil of a fish in a dry terrestrial environment did the fish flop around on land? Did the rock form in water and then move? Since fish do not flop around on land today, the explanation that adheres to the philosophy that natural laws do not change is that the rock moved.

Which statement best explains why early humans in Africa tended to settle near rivers or river valleys?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

These areas had the most resources.

Explanation:

When you are settled by rivers, you have the sources you need to grow crops, raise life such as cows, pig, chicken. Not only this but you also have a place to bath, collect drinking water, and wash clothing. Life thrives more on river sides rather than inland during these times as they did not have all the tech we do today.
