Geography

Answer:

Hello!

I think your best answer should be BLANKET

Explanation:

Greenhouse Gases allow heat to enter the Earth's atmosphere...warming it up (especially during the day). Similar to a blanket making you warm...

These SAME gases TRAP the reflected radiation (another word for HEAT) and prevent the majority of it from escaping back into Space...Much like your blanket...you dont get suddenly cold, meaning some of the heat from your body is trapped INSIDE the blanket!

I HOPE THIS HELPS!!

nataly862011 [7]
<h2><u>Relation between buoyancy, isostatic equilibrium, and epeirogenic processes</u></h2>

                   Buoyant force or buoyancy, is the force exerted in an object which is fully or partially occupied in a fluid. Isostatic equilibrium is the gravitational equilibrium between earth's crust and underlying mantle. while epeirogenic process is the depression of land having long wavelengths.

Both epeirogenic process and  isostatic equilibrium uses the principle of buoyancy. The crust of the Earth or the lithosphere floats over underlying mantle at an elevation depending upon its density and thickness.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The Sun

Explanation:

The sun does not move or rotate and hence cannot retrograde, however the other planets rotate. Some astronomers define retrograde motion as the Westward movement of the planets relative to the sun, based on this definition, all the planets experience retrograde movement. On the other hand, while some astronomers define retrograde motion as the movement that the other planets make when earth passes them while orbiting the sun. Based on this second classification, Mercury and Venus do not retrograde relative to the earth because they move faster than the earth.
