Answer:

He realized that the Earth's crust had been moving away on each side of oceanic ridges, down the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, that were long and volcanically active. He published his theory and it came to be called “seafloor spreading.”

Im so dumb...Someone help?
Alexandra [31]
Hi,

I can’t really answer the first question, but you should use a ruler to measure the length of the route and of the segment in blue and white in the lower right and then write a proportion. If you need help with that just let me know. The answer to the second question is summer monsoon, because as you can see the red arrows point to India from Africa, while the blue ones go the opposite direction.

Hope this helps! If I was not clear enough or you’d like further explanation please let me know. Also, English is not my first language, so I’m sorry for any mistake.

How can we limit the problem of land fragmentation?​
Setler [38]

Answer:

By imposing laws.

Explanation:

We limit the problem of land fragmentation through laws made by the government because this fragmentation of land is also occur due to inheritance law. If the inheritance law is changed then the lands can be kept from fragmentation.

How does climate influence wine styles produced in various regions callifornia?
frosja888 [35]
<span>Weather variations from year to year are far less dramatic in California than they are in most European wine regions. One major reason is that rain doesn't fall during the growing season in much of California. Napa Valley: The southern part of the valley is the coolest area, thanks to ocean breezes and mists from the San Pablo Bay. Northwards--away from the bay influence--the climate can get quite hot (but always with cool nights). Sonoma: Its climate is similar to Napa's, except that some areas near the coast are definitely cooler. Mendocino and Lake Counties: Cool climate. The San Francisco Bay: Cool breezes from the Bay. The Santa Cruz Mountains: Cool climate on the ocean side. Gold Country/The Sierra Foothills: Summers can be very hot, but many vineyards are situated as high as 1,500 feet and evenings are very cool. San Luis Obispo: Include the warm and hilly Paso Robles region and the cool and coastal Edna Valley and Arroyo Grande. Santa Barbara: The Santa Maria, Santa Ynez, and Los Alamos Valleys are cool climates that open toward the Pacific Ocean and channel in the ocean air. The southernmost Santa Ynez Valley boasts a cool climate on its western end, while the eastern end of the valley is warm enough to grow red grapes. In the cool western end is the Sta. Rita AVA.</span>

Answer:

warm front

Explanation:

"Increasing high cloudiness and cold this morning. Clouds increasing and lowering this afternoon with a chance of snow or rain tonight. Precipitation ending tomorrow morning. Turning much warmer. Winds light easterly today becoming southeasterly tonight and southwesterly tomorrow". This suggests a WARM FRONT.

Warm front Forms when a moist, warm air mass slides up and over a cold air mass. As the warm air mass rises, it condenses into a broad area of clouds. A warm front brings gentle rain or light snow, followed by warmer, milder weather.
