Geography

Answer:

The mountains of Himalayan rose to their current height through a process of tectonic plates shifting over a million of years.

Explanation:

The Himalayan mountain reached its height due to the process of displacement of tectonic plates. This displacement imposes a pressure on the Earth's surface, which raises this mountain by about 4 centimeters per year. This pressure occurs because for thousands of years the Indian tectonic plate moves slowly under the Eurasian tectonic plate.

Write a list of as many similarities and differences as you can find between marine ecosystems, estuaries, and freshwater ecosys
Hatshy [7]

Similarities:

- Marine and freshwater ecosystems are water, covering almost 75 percent of the earth's surface.

-The most pervasive problem affecting both freshwater and marine ecosystems is pollution.

-The process of regulating the osmotic pressure on fluids inside an organism is essential to all freshwater and marine species.

Differences:

- Marine ecosystems are more diverse than freshwater ones.

- In marine or seawater, the salinity level, or the concentration of salt is greater, but freshwater is not totally void of it.

- Only 1% of the whole water body on the earth is freshwater, the other 99% is marine water.

Note- I couldn't come up with ones for estuaries, sorry.

What is the impact that a fast-food hamburger has on the Earth?
stepan [7]

Answer: Well, to first make a hamburger, you need beef which comes from cows. Cows produce lots of methane before they are killed. This methane is far more catastrophic than carbon dioxide. This methane heats up the Earth's atmosphere contributing to global warming. Also, cattle need a ton of food, water, and land grazing area just to raise them.
