Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Shale is a sedimentary rock that is often associated with oil deposits. This is due in part to the tiny and very fine grains that make up shale. As the sediments are compacted, organic matter is trapped by the particles of clay and silt.
Later, as sedimentation continues and the layers are buried farther underground, the heat and pressure convert some of the organic material into oil. While much of the gas escapes the porous shales, some also remains trapped in the rock layer.
<span>1 inch of rain per year is less than many
of the world's most arid places get.
That's a real desert, and
probably could not support any grass.</span>
In the Sahara desert, which occupies half of the continent of Africa, the
annual rainfall ranges from 0.8 to 3.9 inches per year. You can see that
1 inch per year is near the bottom of the Sahara's range !
I believe it is B due to elimination of the other options. Option A water is important to all organisms not just some. Option C not all organisms can obtain water through food. Option D plants cells are affected when water sources are less. Therefore I believe that option B is the one I would go with.
Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and oxides of nitrogen tend to absorb some of the reflected infrared radiation and re-reflect it back towards the earth. This is what causes the greenhouse effect and it results in an increase in average mean temperature on earth.
I got this answer on quizlet, it is called "The Greenhouse Effect" I hope this helps :)
Answer:
Cobble is a big piece of stone whereas clay is the smallest particles of earth.
Explanation:
Cobble is a small round stone used to cover road surfaces. Pebbles are the round rock fragment with a diameter of 4-64 mm which is smaller than a cobble but larger than a granule. Sand is a loose granular material that produces from the disintegration of rocks, the particles of sand is smaller than gravel. Its particle size is 0.0625 to 2 millimeters. Silt is granular material having a size between sand and clay about 0.002 to 0.05 mm. Clay is a stiff, sticky fine-grained particles that can be molded when present in wet condition and is used to make bricks, pottery, and ceramics. Clay particles are smaller than 0.002 mm in diameter.
