Answer:
11. On the diagram of the area of sand dune development attached to the answer, draw a sketch showing the general side view of a sand dune formed by a wind blowing in the direction indicated. Your sketch should clearly show any variations in the slope of the sides of the dune.
[1] Allow 1 credit for a correct profile, showing both the windward and leeward sides of the same dune, and showing the steepest gradient on the leeward side. Acceptable responses include, but are not limited to, this example:
12. Allow 1 credit for a correct response. Acceptable responses include, but are not limited to, these examples:
The calcite cement would be chemically weathered and removed by infiltrating water.
It would be dissolved.
It will bubble.
Answer:
The following is NOT part of the definition of a mineral: c. can be produced by natural or laboratory processes. Is glacial ice a mineral? d. Yes. Which type of bonds results when two atoms share electrons? d. Covalent
Explanation:
Mineral are composed of specific chemical elements. The are organized and their atomic structure forms crystals. They occur naturally and they are associated with rocks. The reason why they are inorganic is because they do not contain carbon, however, they can be produced by organic processes. Therefore, c. is NOT part of the definition of a mineral. Following the same principles, ice is considered a mineral because it is composed of one single chemical molecule (H2O), it occurs naturally and it contains a well organized crystal structure. The process of sharing two atoms is called covalent bond. In an ionic system, the electron is transferred to another atom so the concept of sharing is limited to the covalent bond.
After studying the maps that you posted with the question, the map that shows both the dominate air pressure over India can be found easily. So the air pressure system that forms in the summer and the direction of the surface winds around the air pressure system can be found in map number 1.
Well, when the wind blows, it picks up dirt and dust. Gravity makes that dirt and dust fall down. Eventually, builds up landforms! And pressure from gravity may push down and compact ground, soit changes that way.
I hope this helped!
D. a climate event with high winds and heavy rains
