Answer: The Turquoise Lake as seen nowadays in Colorado is a result of the 1850´s modern warming climate transition, lingering away from the Little Ice Age times occurred 500 years ago. This given period was characterized by snow blowing winds that accumulated ice through thermal compaction, generating the glaciers as we see them.
Explanation: Terminal and recessional moraines are the terminus of a glacial feature. Moraines are the sedimentar charges carried by melted glacials. Consequence of those is the repositioning of the snow downwards the valleys. The ice, initially attached to the glaciers and mountain tops, undergoes melting by seasonal and/or climate transition warming, resulting on circumstancial water deposits that place on the basin/lower areas of the mountain chains, forming lakes.
The rate of natural increase refers to the difference between the number of live births and the number of deaths occurring in a year, divided by the mid-year population of that year, multiplied by a factor (usually 1,000). It is equal to the difference between the crude birth rate and the crude death rate.
Weathering:
<u>Definition</u><u>:</u> The process of wearing or being worn by long exposure to the atmosphere.
<u>Example</u><u>:</u> Plateaus can be formed by weathering
Erosion:
<u>Definition</u><u>:</u> the gradual destruction or diminution of something.
<u>Example</u><u>:</u> Landforms of coastal erosion include cliffs, wave-cut platforms, caves and arches.
Deposition:
<u>Definition</u><u>:</u> Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or landmass.
<u>Example</u><u>:</u> Beaches, deltas, glacial moraine, sand dunes, and salt domes.
The answer would be : <span>c. chemical weathering.

Answer:
A
Explanation:
The West contains several major biomes, including arid and semi-arid plateaus and plains, particularly in the American Southwest; forested mountains, including two major ranges, the American Sierra Nevada and Rocky Mountains; the long coastal shoreline of the American Pacific Coast; and the rainforests of the Pacific .
