15. Three types of volcanoes that we discussed in class characteristics of each.

Setler [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The three main types of volcanoes are as follows:

1. Composite volcanoes: These are also called as strato volcanoes. These are steep and formed by the layers of ashes and lava. The eruption from these volcanoes is in the form of pyroclastic flow. The pyroclastic flow is in the form of superheated mixture which consists of rock dust, ash, and hot steam. These volcanoes can rise above the 8000 feet. These are found in the destructive plate margins. Example of these volcanoes include the Mount Fuji in Japan.

2. Shield Volcanoes: These volcanoes are low and they have gentle sloping sides. These are formed by the layers of lava. Their eruption of lava is non-explosive. These produces the fast flowing fluids that can flow to many miles. These can destroy the nearby surrounding regions can cause injury and even death. These volcanoes are found in the region of constructive boundaries and also at the volcanic hotspots. The examples of shield volcanoes include the Maunaloa on Hawaii.

3. Dome volcanoes: These are also called as acid lava cones as these emit acid which is much thicker than that of the lava. These have steeper sides as compared to the shield volcanoes. The lava is thick and sticky as a result of this it cannot flow to far region and it cools and solidifies. The example of dome volcanoes include the Puy de Dome of Auvergne, France.

How would some farmers likely abandoned their wells

agasfer [191]

Why Farmland is Abandoned:

As groundwater pumping increased, water tables dropped, requiring pumping from deeper levels and at greater costs. Because of the increased cost, irrigation became prohibitively expensive. Farms thus were abandoned as unprofitable, especially in Cochise and Pinal counties.

The process in which rocks or soil are broken down into small particles as a result of exposure to wind, water or biota is calle

kondaur [170]

Weathering is the process in which rocks or soil are broken down into small particles as a result of exposure to wind, water or biota.

<h3>What is Weathering?</h3>

Rocks, soils, minerals, wood, and manmade materials all deteriorate due to weathering when they come into touch with water, air gases, and living things. Weathering is distinct from erosion since it takes place in situ (on the spot, with little to no movement), as opposed to erosion, which involves the transportation of rocks and minerals by forces such water, ice, snow, wind, waves, and gravity.

Physical weathering and chemical weathering are the two types of weathering processes. Physical weathering is the mechanical deterioration of rocks and soils caused by heat, water, ice, or other elements. Water, gases from the atmosphere, and chemicals created by living things all interact chemically with rocks and soils during chemical weathering. Physical and chemical weathering are primarily caused by water, with atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide playing a supporting role.
