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
As a mountainous island chain, New Zealand has a complex maritime climate whose weather is greatly affected by the mountains and the sea. The climate ranges from warm sub-tropical in the north, to cool sub-temperate in the south. The prevailing winds are westerly and this leads to a reasonably high rainfall particularly in the west. New Zealand's location relative to Antarctica means that weather systems from that direction can cause very sudden deterioration in weather and extreme drops in temperature particularly in the south.

Answer:
Poor planning, and disease
Explanation:
The obstacles that the French faced while attempting to build a canal across Panama were diseases and poor planning. The French dealt with constant outbreaks of malaria and yellow fever, which slowed construction and caused the deaths of thousands of workers. The French also did not take into consideration the geographical differences between the Suez Canal region and the Panama region. The French had succeeded in building a canal at sea level in Egypt, and they mistakenly thought a similar design would work in Panama. However, the difference in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean sea levels, as well as the difference in elevation of the Panamanian terrain, prevented them from building a sea-level canal. The United States knew about these two problems when they undertook the project. They took preventative measures by reducing the disease-spreading mosquito population and using a canal-lock system to overcome the elevation obstacle in Panama.
