What is the relationship between the soil’s permeability and the amount of groundwater?

Geography
1 answer:
dexar [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer with Explanation:

The amount of groundwater that can be stored will largely depend on the <em>"soil's permeability." </em>A permeable soil means that <u>it is easy for water to pass through the pores.</u> It has<em> </em><em>larger pores that are well-connected to each other</em> thereby allowing water to flow freely. This also allows the water to pass through the rocks, which then <u>increases its </u><u>porosity</u>. This also leads to an easier way to extract the groundwater.

Arisa [49]

The correct answer is C. Glacier

Explanation

In the image, you can see the water cycle, and there are four letters, A, in the part of the sea; B on the earth's surface; the C below the Earth's surface, and the D in the mountains. In the area where the D is, there are glaciers on the mountain peaks caused by the low temperatures in the area. In addition, a glacier is a mass of ice formed on the earth's surface by the accumulation of snow on mountain peaks, in Antarctica, the Arctic, and Greenland. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Glaciar.

omeli [17]

Petroleum is a very important part of our day to day life now. We use it almost every day and it has helped emerge the world of vehicles.

<h3>Remains of sea organism</h3>

The remains of ancient marine organisms and sea organisms are used to extract crude oil or petroleum which serve as a fuel for vehicles. These organisms are ancient marine plants, algae and bacteria.

Therefore it can be concluded that the type of fossil fuel in which the remains of sea organisms are converted to is petroleum or crude oil.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer :

(A). Charles Lyell correctly explained how fossils form and formulated some of the basic principles of relative dating

Explanation:

Charles Lyell was a Scottish geologist who demonstrated the power of known natural causes in explaining Earth's history.

Relative dating is the science of determining the relative order of past events, without actually deciding its absolute age.

Charles Lyell's principle of inclusions and components, explains that, with sedimentary rocks, if inclusions are found in a formation, then the inclusions must be older than the formation that contains them.

Those people who lived under mountain what does that mean for them?
Sergeu [11.5K]
Hill people, also referred to as mountain people, is a general term for people who live in the hills and mountains. This includes all rugged land above 300 metres (980 ft) and all land (including plateaus) above 2,500 metres (8,200 ft) elevation. The climate is generally harsh, with steep temperature drops between day and night. High winds, runoff from melting snow and rain cause high levels of erosion and thin, immature soils. Climate change is likely to place considerable stress on the mountain environment and the people who live there.

People have used or lived in the mountains for thousands of years, first as hunter-gatherers and later as farmers and pastoralists. The isolated communities are often culturally and linguistically diverse. Today about 720 million people, or 12% of the world's population, live in mountain regions, many of them economically and politically marginalized. The mountain residents have adapted to the conditions, but in the developing world they often suffer from food insecurity and poor health. They depend on crops, livestock and forest products, and tend to be poor. In the developed world the mountain people are generally prosperous, and the mountains may be used for tourism and outdoor recreation. Mining is also widespread and dates back to the pre-Christian era.

In parts of the developing world the mountain communities depend on remittances from young men who have gone to work in the lowlands or overseas. Although 70% of mountain people live in rural areas, the rest live in cities, including large cities such as Mexico City, with a population of around 21 million. The cities attract temporary or permanent migrants from the rural areas. The smaller cities are more connected to the mountain culture and economy than the larger ones.
