A. The average distance between the Earth and the Sun, or A.U., is used to measure distances within our solar system.
D. Distances to things outside of our solar system are measured in terms of light-years (ly), which are the maximum distances light can travel in a year in a vacuum.
To calculate the immense distances in the cosmos, astronomers mostly employ two methods. An astronomical unit (A.U.), often known as the average distance between the Earth and the Sun, is used as a standard measurement within our solar system. One A.U. is equivalent to 150 million kilometres or 93 million miles. Within our solar system, it is used to calculate the separations between planets, asteroids, and comets. Second, astronomers use light-years to gauge distances outside of our solar system (ly). The distance that light can cover in one year in a vacuum, or 5.88 trillion miles or 9.46 trillion kilometres, is known as a light-year. We may use this method to calculate the huge separations between stars, galaxies, and other astronomical objects. As a result, astronomers employ A.U.
How can biological weathering result in chemical erosion?
Roots loosen soil and break rocks.
Large herds trample rocks and break up soil.
Plants transpire water vapor.
Bacteria release acids and other agents that break down rock.
Answer: Biological weathering only refers to weathering caused by organisms -- animals, plants, fungi and microorganisms such as bacteria. While certain forms of biological weathering, such as the breaking of rock by tree roots, are sometimes categorized as either physical or chemical, biological weathering can be either physical or chemical

Explanation:
Keiko said the three areas where volcanoes form are at convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries. How should Keiko’s answer be corrected?
Hot spots should replace divergent plate boundaries.
Subduction zone should replace convergent plate boundaries.
Subduction zone should replace transform plate boundaries.
Hot spots should replace transform plate boundaries.
Answer:
Hot spots should replace transform plate boundaries.
