Oxygen-18 and oxygen-16 are useful in studying past climates because ________.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

B. both water and calcite contain oxygen.

Explanation:

water molecules are not equal some are substituted with a heavier counterpart,the standard Oxygen molecule can be substituted by the 18O and hydrogen by H2 given rise to H216O,HD16O and H118O they are termed isotopologues and gave different physical properties.First, over the ocean, the heavier isotopes are less likely to take part in the formation of moisture, leading to lower concentrations of the heavy isotopes in the clouds compared to the mean oceanic water isotopic composition (lower concentration means that the δ18O is more negative). Then, as the air masses move toward the poles, temperature decreases leading to precipitation (either liquid or solid). The heavier isotopes will be preferentially found in the condensed phase than the light ones, which depletes even more the cloud from its heavy isotopes. Finally, in remote areas of the Polar Regions, the isotopic content of the final precipitation results from successive precipitation events. Since, as we saw, the precipitation contents in each isotope are different, each successive precipitation event will have a different isotopic composition, with the final one having the least heavy isotopes – a process called distillation. At each step of the moisture’s path from ocean to cloud to precipitation, the isotopic fractionation is strongly influenced by temperature. This leads to a temperature signal in the isotopic composition of both vapour and precipitation

Why are the ancient coral reefs of the interior Plains important today

sammy [17]

Answer:

the Appalachian Mountain

Explanation:

The European settlers in what is now the United States quickly started to push the natives of their lands and create their colonies. As they were doing so, they started to establish towns and villages, create their own plantations, implement their rules and laws. But this was all happening along the eastern coastline and in close proximity to it. The reason for this was that they had a very big natural barrier in front of them that didn't allowed them to spread out toward the west. This natural barrier were the Appalachian Mountains. The Appalachians are a mountain range that separates almost all of the eastern coastline area from the interior of the country. These mountains are relatively high, had very dense impenetrable forests, and were very dangerous for crossing, so the Europeans avoided them until they developed better means of travel and transportation.
