Answer:

<h2><u><em>Glaciers.</em></u> </h2>

A glacier is a huge mass of ice that moves very slowly downhill along the landscape.

  • Glaciers form in high latitudes near Earth's poles and at high altitudes,
  • They form due to the accumulation (piling up) and compaction (packing down) of snow.
  • As the glaciers expand, due to their accumulating weight of snow and ice they crush and abrade and scour surfaces such as rocks and bedrock. The resulting erosional landforms include striations, cirques, glacial horns, arêtes, trim lines, U-shaped valleys, roches moutonnées, overdeepenings and hanging valleys.

Explanation:

I am currently learning about glacier in science on E d g e n u i t y.

olganol [36]

Answer:

The world climate would drastically change.

Explanation:

  • First off, both poles would have rapid expansion, with the freezing of more water near the poles.
  • Many species of trees and plants would die out in certain areas, since they tend to be in their ideal locations, so the change in climate will make the northern parts of many habitats destroyed.
  • Deserts would expand and the average temperature would rise.
  • Also, many animals would also die out, because of the change in their environments.
  • Conifers would shift southward, causing many forests / parts of forests to turn into wastelands, causing the earth's oxygen production to decrease.

Which level of biodiversity includes species richness and evenness?
Novay_Z [31]
The answer is:

Community Diversity.

Reason Why: Here is an example, say you have 2 communities, community 1 is A, and community 2 is B, Communities A and B contain 5 tree species, However because community B has greater species evenness it has greater species diversity.
Community A is dominated by one of its 5 species and so has lower species diversity than.....community B, which has the same 5 species but in equal proportion.

Richness- Number of Species
Evenness-Relative abundance.
