How sinkholes are created and from which rock group do they belong to?

Geography
1 answer:
andreyandreev [35.5K]3 years ago
4 0

Sinkholes are common where the rock below the land surface is limestone, carbonate rock, salt beds, or rocks that can naturally be dissolved by groundwater circulating through them. As the rock dissolves, spaces and caverns develop underground.

Sinkholes are formed when the land surface above collapses or sinks into the cavities or when surface material is carried downward into the voids. Drought, along with resulting high groundwater withdrawals, can make conditions favorable for sinkholes to form.

Match the climate zone in column 1 to the characteristic in column 2.
Aliun [14]

The correct matches are:

- A. Tropical - On the Equator;

- B. Dry - Near the Equator;

- C. Moderate - Mildest weather;

- D. Continental - Severe temperature changes;

The climate types differ from one place to another on our planet, and in general they are separated in zones in accordance to the latitude at which they are.

The tropical climate is the one that lies on and around the Equator, and it is warm and wet for the whole year. Little north and south of the Equator we encounter the dry climates, where the landscape is occupied by deserts, with extremely high temperatures, and very little precipitation. Further north come the moderate climate types and the continental climate types, they are similar to each other, but the temperatures in the moderate climates have less variation, while in the continental ones it is much bigger, also the moderate ones have more precipitation, and the continental ones have less precipitation. They are both in the mid-latitudes.
