The answer is d, due to the helms-burton act
The overall specific gravity of the earth is much higher than the specific gravity of crustal rocks which means the earth is about twice as heavy as the rocks on the surface would suggest. Iron meteorites are thought to have the same composition as the average earth, and the meteorites contain a lot more iron than the Earth's surface rocks.
-- If you go outside at the same time every night and look at
some familiar stars, you'll see each of them them move westward
at almost exactly 1 degree per night.
-- The reason for that apparent motion is the real motion of the
Earth in its orbit around the sun, at almost exactly 1 degree in
every 24 hours.
(average during a whole year is 0.9856 degree per day.)
Answer:
Conditions at the base of a glacier increase glacial flow velocity -
Steeper slope
Smooth rock / glacier contact
Colder basal water temperature.
Explanation:
Steeper slope and smooth rock/glacier contact will increase glacial flow velocity because higher the steepness higher the velocity and smoothness will apply less friction.
Due to decrease in ice thickness the load at the bottom of the glacier will decrease, and we know that the glacier flows under the load of itself, so lesser the load lesser the velocity.
Colder basal water temperature will generate less amount of melt as compared to warmer basal water temperature, so in colder condition, glacial flow velocity will not be increased.
