well saying that the sun dose create heat it wouldn't do as much  

considering the fact that is it freezing there it would be like 20% heat from the sun and 80% cold im not sure if this helps

If three seismic stations have the following P–S intervals: DUG = 57 sec, WUAZ = 73 sec, ISCO = 14 sec, what is the order from c
iragen [17]

Answer:

ISCO-DUG-WUAZ

Explanation:

Seismic waves of an earthquakes is recorded first in the station closest to the earthquake. The P wave is the faster moving wave and then the S wave. The faster the time it takes the P and S waves to register in the seismographer the closer the station to the site of the earthquake. Bearing this in mind, the wave was first registered in ISCO making it closest to the earthquake site, followed by DUG and then WAUZ.

ISCO (14sec)-DUG (57sec)-WUAZ (73sec)

How did the earthworm's mode of location compare to the nematode's mode of location?
lesya [120]

Answer: The earthworm contracts and extends in its movement, but the nematode moves side by side.

Explanation:

NOTE: By mode of location, we mean the way it moves.

The skin of a nematode is very unusual in that it secretes a thick outer cuticle which is both hard and flexible. And this cuticle makes it sustain a side by side mode of location. The closest thing a roundworm has to a skeleton is its cuticle and it uses it as a support and balance point for movement. Long muscles lie just underneath the epidermis and are all aligned longitudinally along the inside of the body, so the nematode can only bend its body from side to side, not contract or extend itself.

Whereas the earthworm extends and contracts as its mode of location.

An earthworm moves by using its two different sets of muscles: circular muscles for looping around each segment, and the longitudinal muscles for running along the length of the body.

The contraction of the circular muscles make the earthworm stretch becoming longer and thinner. The earthworm uses its longitudinal muscles to contract and thus becomes shorter and wider or it bends from one side to the other, pulling the body forward in the process. The earthworm withdraws the front setae and uses its rear setae to anchor itself at the back. Then the earthworm uses its circular muscles to lengthen and push itself forward again.

Porosity increases:_________. a. when grains settle more closely together after deposition.b. with increasing crystallization be
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The correct solution is Option d (when rocks develop joints or fractures ).

Explanation:

  • Porosity is observable from descriptive samples taken. The drawbacks of receivable dams are that this is impossible to make true reflection temperature measurements, specific side-wall concrete samples while being often valuable can also result in poor coverage as well as dependence on log-derived porosity seems to have become the standard.
  • As porosity rises, too much wind needs to pass further through most of the shelterbelt, which would be to say the less significant decrease in wind direction.

Some other available scenarios have no connexons with the particular circumstance. So this seems to be a reasonable option.

Is atmospheric pressure the same everywhere on the surface of the earth?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Atmospheric pressure differs in different parts of the world.

Explanation:

  • This is because atmospheric pressure depends on the height of a particular location on earth.
  • A number of locations on the earth are at sea level. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.7 pounds per square inch.
  • At higher levels (altitudes) the atmospheric pressure is lower since higher places have got less air pushing downwards compared to lower altitudes which have more air pushing down and hence, high atmospheric pressure.
