The most common type of mechanical weathering that occurs in mid-latitude is called frost action/frost shattering/freeze and thaw weathering. this type of weathering occurs in mountainous areas of mid-latitude regions, where the temperature fluctuates around zero degrees. When water from snowmelt or rainfall freezes in cracks in rocks it expands. The continuous expansion and contraction of rocks as water freezes and thaws will eventually cause rocks to break off into angular fragments.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Pea plant flowers of two colors were used i.e., Purple and White. He observed the same ratio in both cases (3:1), in the self and cross pollination. This happens because of the assumptions in Law of Segregation and Law of Independent assortment. He concluded that the purple color is the Dominant and white in recessive as in both self and cross pollination procedures.

Scientists say that photosynthesis and cellular respiration are reciprocal processes. Why
ANTONII [103]

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are essentially opposite processes. Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms make high-energy compounds -- the sugar glucose in particular -- through the chemical "reduction" of carbon dioxide (CO2). Cellular respiration, on the other hand, involves the breakdown of glucose and other compounds through chemical "oxidation." Photosynthesis consumes CO2 and produces oxygen. Cellular respiration consumes oxygen and produces CO2.
