In much of what is now Canada, glaciers covered the land as little as 12,000 years ago and glacial erosion scoured the land surf
irinina [24]

The reason why the Midwestern United States have a very fertile soil, but Canada doesn't, despite both of them being covered by glaciers until relatively recently, and both having the same age of soil, is the climate and vegetation.

Canada is much colder than the Midwest, its winters are longer, and the summers mild, while the Midwest has higher temperatures, prolonged period of drought, and seasonal rainfall.

Because of this, Canada has been covered by coniferous forests. They leave relatively little biomass, and also the climate is making the decomposition of the biomass very slow, thus resulting in relatively poor soil quality.

In the Midwest, the climate is perfect for the development of the grasslands. The grasses grown and die each year. They live a lot of biomass, and the higher temperatures contribute that the biomass decomposes pretty quickly, thus resulting in good quality soil.

Elanso [62]
Salutations!

Describe the difference between revolution and a rotation, explain why each is important.

Revolution - Revolution is when the Earth revolves around the sun. This process takes 365 days/ 1 year.

Rotation - Rotation and revolution are both different. Rotation is when Earth is spinning on its own axis and also revolving around the sun. Rotation gives us day and night.

Why are they important?

Rotations gives us day and night which is 24 hours. Revolution gives us season. Earth's spins controls our live. We sleep at night and are awake in the days. Both of the spins are very vital to us.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!
