Soon after in became really popular for Europeans to do slave trade. Mainly because the native in America would die from disease that the European brought and most of the native fled to the other side to escape which is why European looked toward Africa for the slaves.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) Mass wasting - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering

Explanation:

a) Mass wasting is defined as the slope movement which causes the downslope of soil, sand, and rock under the influence of the force of gravity. So, mass wasting causes landslides and other collapses due to slope movement.

b) Heating and cooling or temperature changes is a type of physical weathering. Rocks expand at high temperatures (Hot) and contracts at lower temperature (Cool).

c) Dust bowl : When grasses in farmlands are not tightly rooted, the eroding soil led to massive dust bowl and blow the grasses in the farmlands.

d) Oxidation is a type of chemical weathering. Oxidation is defined as the reaction of a substance with oxygen, when oxygen reacts with rocks and soil, it forms oxides which result in weathering.

Hence, the correct answer is:

a) Mass wasting - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering

Places on or near the Equator receive about 12 hours of daylight in June. Approximately how many hours of daylight do those same

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

Explanation:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

In near the equator we experience 12 hours of daylight as the equator is situated exactly the halfway in between the two poles. The North pole experiences long daylight in the months, when the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun and shorter daylight when the pole tilted away from the Sun. The reverse is true for the Southern Poles. But this wouldn't have any effects in daylight on the equator.
