Weathering is described as a passive agent of landform development because it is not directly affecting it.
The one that directly affect the landform are wind, water movement, and tectonic activities. Weathering only affect the formation of these factors.
Answer:
gravity
Explanation:
the moon and earth are like solar magnets so when the moon is full or it is a bloody moon or whatever it orbits around the earth
Answer:
According to the Wilson cycle, the plate motion takes place continuously as a result of which the divergent motion of the continental plates results in the formation of the rift valley and oceans. These continuous divergent motion of continental plates results in the convergent of continental plates at some other places, which give rise to the formation of the large mountain and mountain ranges.
These Mountain ranges are the large geological landforms that are constructed due to the convergent motion of two continental tectonic plates.
For example, the Appalachians were formed due to the collision of the North American and the North African plate, about 480 million years back, which are now separated by the Atlantic ocean
The mountain belt of Urals was formed due to the collision of the eastern European and Kazakhstan continent that occurred from the late Paleozoic time to the early Triassic age.
Answer:
Maritime Polar air masses are cool, moist, unstable thus found over Arctic basin and greenland ice caps.
Explanation:
- Air mass is the volume of air defined by temperature and water vapor. Covering hundred and thousands of miles. Cooler are being found over the arctic.
- They move southwards along the Rockies into the plains then eastwards. These air masses collect warm and mist winds, originating in north Atlantic. The center of the air mass has high pressure and surrounded by lower air pressure at higher latitudes.
- Antarctica and arctic circle are dominated by such air masses
