That would just be called Weathering and Erosion. Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity. Mechanical weathering physically breaks up rock. One example is called frost action or frost shattering. Water gets into cracks and joints in bedrock.
A batholith has an irregular shape with side walls that incline steeply against the host rock. Most batholiths intrude across mountain folds and are elongated along the dominant axis of the range; faulting and contact metamorphism of the enveloping rock near the batholith is also observed.
Because Earth Sciences covers a lot of ground (pun intended) and nobody has the time or ability to do everything well and thouroughly. The field is very highly specialized in its subdivisions.
Well I wouldn’t say there is a “true” answer but I would say religion and politics.
Answer:
Option (1)
Explanation:
Trade winds are usually defined as those wind that blows from the eastern side to the western side. These are the prevailing winds that occur between 25° N and 25° S of the equator.
In the northern hemisphere, this wind is originated from the high-pressure tropical region (northeastern direction) and moves towards the equatorial region (low-pressure zone), and in the southern hemisphere, this wind is originated from the high-pressure tropical region (southeastern direction) and moves towards the equatorial region.
This wind is commonly known as the easterlies, named after their wind originating direction.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
