Answer: They are called Moraines

Explanation: A glacier is a large body of ice originating from land that constantly moves slowly over land. It occurs in almost all parts of the world and makes up about 3/4 of fresh water all over the world.

Glaciers constantly move on land and they do this under their own weight.

As a glacier moves across land, it pushes soil and rocks in front of it and to the sides of it.

The resulting hill formed as a result of this soil movement is called a Moraine.

A moraine is sometimes referred to as a glacial till. It is an accumulation of materials (usually soil and rock) left behind by a moving glacier.

What is the purpose of a dichotomous key of the sort you might find in a field guide?
Serjik [45]

Good morning!! The purpose of both a dichotomous key and a field guide's purpose is to identify organisms. The only difference between the two is the a dichotomous key just uses descriptions to identify the animal with no pictures, but a field guide uses pictures to identify the organism. Another thing that separates the two is that the dichotomous key gives questions/descriptions that describe the organism, whereas the field guide uses a brief description of the animal. Hope I helped!!

The atomic mass of common krypton is 84, and its atomic number is 36. Krypton-82 has how many neutrons within each isotope? A. 4
PtichkaEL [24]
The correct answer would be A. The number of neutrons present in Krypton-82 would be 46. The atomic number of an atom represents the number of protons present while the mass number is the sum of the neutrons and protons in the atom. The mass number for the given atom is 82. So, 82-36 = 46 neutrons present.
