Answer:

the troposphere absorb outgoing IR radiation  

Explanation:

Global warming is caused by the elevated temperature in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, where it is more than 75% of the atmospheric mass and is the closest layer to the Earth. When the Earth is heated by the sun, it receives infrared radiation, which is re-emitted by the earth to the atmosphere. However, the greenhouse gases present in the troposphere, do not allow this infrared radiation to be released, as they absorb this radiation and direct it back to the earth, causing this radiation to be trapped in the atmosphere and generating an increase in the rates of temperature that cause global warming.

If a flat lying sedimentary rock layer ends abruptly, which principle tells that it has likely been deformed
Furkat [3]

The principle that tells that the flat lying sedimentary rock layer, which ends abruptly, has likely been deformed is Original horizontality principle. Option D.

<h3>What are the stratigraphic principles?</h3>

  • Superposition principle

Sedimentary rocks have been chronologically accumulating for years, reflecting the geological formation known as superposition.

According to this sedimentary deposition, we can distinguish the older rocks located in the deepest areas from the younger rocks in more superficial layers.

  • Lateral continuity principle

When talking about lateral continuity, we refer to different strata -sedimental layers- horizontally deposited that have a limited continuity.

This is, when looking laterally, each layer is not infinite. They tend to smoothly end.

These layers get thinner as they get farther from the source until they disappear.

When looking at plane rocky strata, we can notice they have not suffered from any perturbation and keep the original horizontality.

As they disappear, they tend to

• Mint

• Harrow

• Interdigitate

• be truncated

  • Original horizontality principle

This principle refers to the fact that strata extend originally in all horizontal directions. Sedimental layers are horizontally deposited.

However, it may occur that the currently observed strata arrangement is not the same as it used to be.

This is due to tectonic changes that have modified the original positions. Thus, layers can appear

  • folded,
  • slanted, or
  • inverted⇒ leaving  the most ancient layers in the upper positions.

The principle that tells that the flat lying sedimentary rock layer, which ends abruptly, has likely been deformed is Original horizontality principle. Option D.

Read the article titled "Population Campaigns." Compare the current approaches that the Chinese, Indian, and Kenyan governments
alekssr [168]
The Chinese have had restrictions in the amount of children that a family can have, for few decades it was one child, now it is two. Even thought the limit is increased to two children per family, it is a number that will allow the nation to keep it's population on a status quo level.
India, has it worst, the government has not been able to make a solid plan that can be implemented, the wast majority of the population is uneducated, and there's still the pride in having more children, so the population is still growing very fast. 
The Kenyan government made a long term development plan, which as a main goal has to achieve a high quality life for all Kenyans that is sustainable with available resources. Also contraceptive coverage, and educating the population with videos, presentations, talks.
