Answer:
<u>Liquefaction</u> refers to the tendency of a foundation material (such as soil) that is water-logged to lose its internal cohesion and mechanically fail to provide support during earthquake shaking.
Explanation:
Liquefaction occurs when an unbound material (usually sand), which is saturated in water, loses its resistance to shear due to intense and rapid vibration (earthquake), which breaks its granular structure by reducing its inter-granular pressure and flow like a liquid because of an increase in pressure.
Liquefaction usually manifests itself in loose, saturated and non-cohesive soils, formed by young deposits of sands and sediments of similar particle sizes. If the soil is dense there will be less chances of liquefaction. Older deposits, in general, are more dense and cohesive. At higher density, more interstitial pressure is needed for liquefaction to occur.
Answer:
There is no control group and variables were not addressed.
Explanation:
In the context, it is given that there is a dumping ground in a small town called Love Canal and harmful chemical waste of industries are dumped there. Lately, it is noticed that there were traces of the toxic substances on the walls of the schools and the hospitals. The hospitals also noticed that during the period of 1970 to 1980, there were increase in the number of the birth defects in the area. The people of the Love Canal has genetic abnormalities and the chemical waste is responsible for it.
Thus it can be concluded that there is a no such any control group in this case. The confounding variables like the comorbidities as well as the family history of the genetic defects were not addressed.
Explanation:
During telophase II and cytokinesis, chromosomes arrive at opposite poles and begin to decondense; the two cells divide into four unique haploid cells.
Answer:
Provide information about geography
Explanation:
<em>UAVs are otherwise known as unmanned aerial vehicles or drones. They are usually remotely controlled and monitored from a screen. They can be flown over a large expanse of land to obtain geographical information such as the topography of an area, the distance between two points, the height above sea level, and so on.</em>
<u>Except the UAVs are specially designed and equipped with extra features, they cannot be used to obtain information relating to soil nutrients, soil hydration, or information about plant health on a field. </u>
Hence, the correct answer would be option 1,
