rocks as they respond to stress is an example of ductile flow.
Answer:
There are four layers of the Earth, including Inner Core, Outer Core, mantle, and Crust. Each layer has its characteristics because of its temperature and formation.
The inner core is solid with iron and other metal deposit in it. The outer core is liquid, while the mantle is composed of silicate rocks. The crust is the outer layer of the earth, consist of different types of rocks.
The earth was able to develop a layer structure because of the climatic change it had millions of years ago, where the hardest metal reached to its core.
Answer:
D) Ozone
Explanation:
The ozone layer or ozone shield is a region of Earth's stratosphere that absorbs most of the Sun's ultraviolet radiation.
It contains a high concentration of ozone in relation to other parts of the atmosphere, although still small in relation to other gases in the stratosphere.
Rift Valley
A rift valley is a lowland region that forms where Earth's tectonic plates move apart, or rift. ...
Tectonic plates are huge, rocky slabs of Earth's lithosphere—its crust and upper mantle. ...
Many rift valleys are part of “triple junctions,” a type of divergent boundary where three tectonic plates meet at about 120° angles.
I believe that the perpendicular equation would be the opposite sign and the reciprocal of the original slope. Then you just plug in the x and y coordinate to y=mx+b and solve for b.
y=4x+b
3=4(-4)+b
3=-16+b
b=19
y=4x+19
