that layers of sediment were originally deposited horizontally under the action of gravity
All of the above, here's an explanation. The sun helps the water cycle due to evaporation which causes it to turn into a steam/gas. Now for wind, it's because the sun heats up the air and causes thermal energy which later turns into wind. And finally, weather, obviously the sun evaporates water which causes it to be rainy/drowsy.
Answer:
An ecosystem consists of all the organisms in an area, the community, and the abiotic factors that influence that community. Ecosystem ecologists often focus on flow of energy and recycling of nutrients. Biosphere: The biosphere is planet Earth, viewed as an ecological system.
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy of body due to its position in the gravitational field.
Whereas chemical potential energy is the energy within the chemical bonds of a substance.
For example, when we eat an apple then we get energy in our body so, it is the chemical potential energy stored in the apple.
Items sorted on the bases of gravitational potential energy and chemical potential energy are as follows.
Gravitational potential energy:
- a ball thrown up in the air.
- a stone rolling downhill.
- water stored in an overhead tank.
Chemical potential energy:
- liquid petroleum gasoline used in cars.
- firecrackers that people set off.
