1 is physical. Physical weathering is caused by the effects of changing temperature on rocks, causing the rock to break apart. The process is sometimes assisted by water. There are two main types which are freeze thawing and exfoliation. Physical weathering usually occurs in places where there is little soil and few plants growing like mountains, hot deserts, or tundras(the cold tundras).

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Sea floor spreading theory is given Harry Hess the line of evidence that support this are given as under.

Explanation:

Evidence from Molten Matter  

In the 1960s scientists found that there is a presence of new materials from below that need the lava to be uplifted and spread along the boundaries of mid-oceanic ridges i.e the lava or magma spreads through the active plate margins of both plates. The red sea is newly formed is an example of spreading, <u>(a process of oceanic basin creation)</u>.

Evidence from Magnetic strips

The magnetism of the earth helped the scientists study the process of seafloor spreading as the newly formed lava gets deposited on either side of the ridges it takes the magnetic properties of the earth. The ocean floor is divided into strips of north and south after cooling.

Active and passive plate margins.  

The tri-junction of plates and newly discovered plate like that od red sea and splitting of the rift valley and transform faults. Movement of continents away from each other. Examples include Eastern pacific rise and Mid Atlantic ridge.

Why does the United States see North Korea as a threat to our national security? How is the government trying to resolve the sit
uysha [10]
As far as a threat, North Korea has been seen as such for many years (since WWII), when North Korea sided with Russia. America and its Capitalism were not fond of the Communist party, and so we have really been fighting/being concerned about Russian influence.

Historically North and South Korea have been in conflict many years before America and Russia got involved. When we did though it got worse.

Trump has done very little to resolve this, some would say he is making it worse.
