As we discovered in the Grand Canyon, one of the most easily observable sedimentary structures isbedding or layering. However, n

ot all regions have experienced the spectacular erosion that the Grand Canyon has. In mountainous areas, plate tectonic convergence has exposed various sedimentary layers by tilting, folding, and/or faulting them. Resistant rocks still erode to form cliffs, and less resistant rocks still form low slopes or valleys. Folding and faulting can repeat the same sedimentary layers multiple times, creating a series of repeating ridges and valleys.

A. Problem 8a is less resistant and Problem 8b is more resistant

An unusually high tide is called a _______ tide.<br> a. major<br> c. neap<br> b. tall<br> d. spring
Simora [160]

The correct answer is - d. spring.

The unusually high tide is called spring tide.

This tide is higher than the average tide, and much higher than the tide in the period when it is the lowest.

The spring tide always appears after a new moon or a full moon, which is a clear indicator what influences it. The higher a tide is, the bigger the influence on the water bodies by the Moon's gravitational pull, and vice versa.This tide is actually the biggest difference between the high tide and the low tide.
