The following lists the steps between the Siberian traps and mass extinction. Choose the answer that puts the steps in the corre
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The correct order is: 6, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4

Explanation:

Siberian traps refers to the moment when the volcanoes of Siberia expelled a large amount of CO2 and HCl gases that are highly toxic and that promoted a mass extinction, that is, it caused the death of several living beings in a short period of time. This happened over 250 years ago and was caused by the steps:

It all started when volcanoes expelled large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which contaminated the atmosphere and caused a rise in temperature, creating strong global warming. This caused a great warming of the surface of the seas, which caused them to evaporate in great intensity and lose large amounts of oxygen and become anaerobic environments, conducive to the growth of bacteria producing hydrogen sulfide, which is a very toxic gas. This gas was released into the atmosphere, killing several living beings intoxicated with the contaminated air.

Arrange the layers in order from oldest to youngest.
Verizon [17]

From oldest to youngest: I, B, F, M, R, H.

Explanation:

On the picture we can see several layers of rock. Some of the layers have not been disturbed, so the principle of superposition can be applied to them. Some of the layer though have been disturbed by geological processes, so the layers are not at the same level because of it. On top of it, there is also an intrusion that has managed to further cause disturbance through all of the layers.

  • The layer I is the oldest, and it is the basis of the others.
  • Layer B has formed next, and after that layer F.
  • These three layers have been influenced by the formation of fault, where one of their sides has been moving up relative to the other, while the other has been moving down relative to the other.
  • Layer M is younger layer, and it can easily be seen as it totally covers the layer F below it.
  • On top is layer R, which is the youngest of them all (the layers), and the one that comes out on the surface.
  • Layer H is not really a layer, but it is an intrusion, which has formed after magma managed to cut through all the layers and later solidify. It is the youngest formation.

Rate of subduction is one factor that distinguishes the three phases of the Cordilleran Orogeny True False
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The Cordilleras have one major factor that distinguishes them from the other mountain ranges, the three phases of its orogeny. Unlike most of the mountains in the world that have been created by a single orogenic process, that is not the case with the Cordilleras. There have been three consecutive orogenies, the Nevadan, Sevier, and  Laramide orogenic process that created the Cordilleras, thus making them a unique mountain range.

A population density map of the world shows that the distribution of people is most obviously affected by
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

A population density map is used to define as a map that shows the presence of a number of the population existing in any particular area. It directly reflects the dispersion of people that are mainly affected by environmental factors. This includes the variable amount of natural resources present in that area, the type of climate prevailing, the topography of the area and the availability of water resources.

The places which are rich in resources and low lying areas, with plenty of water resources and moderate type of climate are comprised of high-density population. On the other hand, the places which are highly elevated, lack of resources and extreme cold and hot climate are comprised of a lesser population.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
