The surface of the earth is constantly changing.

Explanation:

Wind, water,and ice break down large rocks and move sediments on the surface. Some events, though, change earth's surface much more quickly. These include volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and landslides.

Answer:

How and why does the surface of the earth change

of the earth has changed?

It can be hard to describe change on the surface without bringing up the interior. Earth is a system of constantly changing interactions between interior, surface conditions, and external events.

Volcanoes bring up new material and even create land. The Hawaiian islands, for instance are a chain of volcanoes on the surface, but the underlying structure is a single magma plume. In a way, the entire chain of islands is a single volcano that breaks through different places as the crust moves over it.

On that note: plates. Earth is made of tectonic plates that constantly move. Some grind against one another, others collide, and some pull apart. Depending on direction and interaction, you get anything from mountains, to spreading valleys, oceans, and anything else you care to name. Mountains can almost be viewed as something akin to the ridges of build up ice on a window scraper.

Erosion by water, wind, sand, chemicals, and living things changes the surface too. Materials on the surface face an incredible number of forces breaking them down and dragging them away, even as those same forces in different places and situations deposit those materials in other places, building things back up.

“Stardust” is also a thing. Rocks, dust, debris, and all sorts of random, natural cra.,p is constantly hitting our atmosphere. Regardless of whether or not it stays mostly intact, some material breaks off, and most of it does tend to make it to the surface, adding tiny amounts of matter all the time. …of course something BIG enough hitting the surface can throw rocks and chunks of surface clear into space, so that’s a thing too.

Remember when I mentioned living things? Living things D.,IE! Gac.k! And when they do, they break down into organic gunk. Soil - the stuff we grow crops in - is basically minerals and dead things that are decaying into nutritious, yummy, dir.,t.

Weather changes things too. Rain erodes, but rain that soaks a rock, and then is frozen by low temperatures, breaks the rock. Too much rain can create flooding, which results in a lot of sediment moving downstream. Heat can dry things out, crack the ground, and even slowly cook one kind of soil into another. Lightning can make glass out of sand, snow can collapse weak ground, not enough rain can dry out ground that could si.nk down without the extra pressure, and too much rain can literally move mountainsides if enough water adds its weight to the rocks and dir.t.

It’s always changing, and there is always more complexity to go into when studying it. There’s seldom a single cause, or reason, or effect for anything.

Have a great day!

How does the sea ice in 2019 compare to the sea ice in 2012 during April?
Katarina [22]

The total amount of sea ice showed a decline from 2012 to 2019. The correct option would be D.

<h3>Graphical illustration</h3>

Looking at the graph, from February to June 2012, there is a decline in the amount of sea ice.

A similar decline in the amount of sea ice can be observed in the year 2019.

However, the sea ice levels for the various months in 2012 remain generally above the sea ice levels in the various months in 2019.

Thus, overall, one can say there is a general decline in the ice level from 2012 to 2019.

** ALL MY POINTS**
Flura [38]

PART 1


1. The answer is low frequency electromagnetic waves are able to go around obstacles due to their larger wavelengths. This characteristic of lower frequency waves is due to their ability to diffract around obstacles such as buildings and hills. Therefore, they transmit over long distances unlike high frequency electromagnetic waves.

2. One disadvantage is interference. Electromagnetic waves of the same frequency transmitted at the same time will interfere with one other and therefore the signal will be lost or scrambled. Other electromagnetic waves such as microwaves are affected (interfered with) by weather elements.

3. Analogue signals are continuous signals with wave-like properties while digital signals are discrete signals or pulse (ons (1s) and offs (0s) that represent bits). Analogue signal is represented by a sine-wave while digital signal is represented by discrete squares waves.

4. Digital signals are less immune to eavesdropping unlike analogue signals. Analogue signal is also more prone to distortion unlike digital signal. Digital signals transmit more data than analogue signals. Digital signal draw less energy to transmit compared to analogue signal.

5. Broadcasting of TV is nowadays using digital signals due to the high number of available channels. Computers and the interne utilize digital signaling to transmit data. Controls systems such as radar system also use aspects of analogue waves. Sensors also utilize analogue waves especially transducers such as seismology equipment.


PART 2


1. One way is by sending radio waves to probes sent out in space to give them commands during exploration. Radio telescopes also pick up naturally-occurring radio waves from space and analyze the data to make conclusions about space and the astronomical objects.

2. Radio waves are used in communication by transmitting data over long distances. One example is its use TV transmission. Another is through military defense of airspace. The radio waves are used to detect enemy intrusion into restricted airspaces using radar.

3. It is common that signal from the environment will be in analogue signal format. The conversion to digital signals allows for the digital equipment in the telescope to interpret and analyze the data. Telescopes prefer digital equipment because they consume less power, handle more data, and are less prone to intrusion, and distortion, hence more secure to analogue equipment.

How do cells know how to develop within a multicellular organism?
DENIUS [597]

The correct answer is option b. They receive instructions in their DNA.

The DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or the genes present in the cell guides the fate of the cells during the process of cellular differentiation in the embryonic life of the multicellular organism. The signaling molecule change the genetic expression changes, by which the cells are differentiated.
