Answer:

Castilla del Oro

Explanation:

Crossing the isthmus, Balboa discovered the “South Sea” (Pacific Ocean) in 1513 and claimed for Spain all the lands it touched.

Earth science please help​
adoni [48]

Answer:

Geomorphological processes and resultant topography are related with  glacial, aeolian, fluvial and ground water movement.

  1. Outwash plain: <em>deposited mostly by water from melting glaciers.</em>
  2. Sand dunes: <em>not related to glaciation</em>
  3. Offshore bar: <em>not related to glaciation</em>
  4. Moraine: <em>deposited by glaciers</em>

Explanation:

Each and every geomorphological process has three types work. For e.g. erosional work, transportational work and depositional work.

  • Outwash plain produced by fluvio-glacial depositional work where firstly glaciers melt and then the water flows and deposits sediments in a flat area.
  • Moraine produced by glacial deposition. Glaciers carry sediments (pebbles, cobbles) and when it deposits in the valley floor it results a distinguished landform i.e. moraine.
  • Sand dunes produced by aeolian action (depositional work). When wind receives obstacle in the form of tree or stone in its way it deposits sand in desert area and produce sand dunes.
  • Offshore bar produced by marine processes. when sediments deposited in the coastal area in a huge quantity and friction take place between the wave and sea floor it creates offshore bar.

One possible result of the addition of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere is an increase in cloudcover, which, in turn, could part
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The increase in cloud-cover occurs with introduction of larger amounts of aerosols into the atmosphere. The increased amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere will result in an increase of the greenhouse effect. Basically, the carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, having properties that enable it to trap the heat into the Earth's atmosphere. By doing so, the carbon dioxide will contribute to warmer atmosphere, thus warmer global climate. The effect of it will be that the Earth will have rise in the temperatures on global scale. The ice sheets will mostly melt, resulting in sea level rise. The rise of the sea levels will mean more ocean water, and less land, which in turn will create climate conditions that will be warm and wet in most of the planet.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Hail actually falls as a solid. Hailstones are formed by layers of water attaching and freezing in a large cloud. A frozen droplet begins to fall from a cloud during a storm, but is pushed back up into the cloud by a strong updraft of wind. When the hailstone is lifted, it hits liquid water droplets
