Answer:
The material moved by erosion is sediment. Deposition occurs when the agents, usually wind or water, of erosion lay down sediment. Deposition changes the shape of the land. Water's movements (both on land and underground) cause weathering and erosion, which change the land's surface features and create underground formations.

What do you know about the rock cycle and the three type of rocks?
Answer:
There are three main types of rocks: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Each of these rocks are formed by physical changes—such as melting, cooling, eroding, compacting, or deforming—that are part of the rock cycle. Sedimentary rocks are formed from pieces of other existing rock or organic material

In case the question gets cut off: which world map below shows the locations of major plate boundaries where most earthquakes and volcanoes occur on earth?
Answer:
The map labeled with 1 shows the major plate boundaries and where most of the earthquakes and volcanoes occur.
Explanation:
The map labeled with number 1 is showing us the plate boundaries. This can easily be confirmed as the lines that are drawn are in the exact same places where the plate boundaries are located. The plate boundaries are the places that are tectonically the most active on Earth, with earhtquakes and volcanoes being a regular occurrence.
Not all plate boundaries though have around the same intensity of earthquakes or number of volcanoes. This is due to the difference in plate boundaries. At the convergent plate boundaries (depending is it between two continental, continental and oceanic, or two oceanic) there can be the formation of volcanoes or mountain ranges, with earthquake activity varying a lot. At transform boundaries, there isn't volcanic activity but there are a lot of earthquakes. At divergent boundaries, earthquakes are rare, but there is intense and constant volcanic activity.
Which of the following is an effect of acid rain?
A. Plants absorb water more easily.
B. Air quality decreases.
C. Surfaces of buildings, statues, rocks, and leaves are damaged.
D. Heat from the Sun is absorbed more quickly by the atmosphere.
Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B В
Оооо
D
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Acid rain is rain with a lower pH than typical water (4.0 vs 5.5). This erodes and damages buildings, rock, etc
What are three differences between brittle and plastic strain (may include both characteristics of the strain as well as the conditions and locations where each type of strain occurs), and give an example of the type of structure (deformation feature) associated with each type of strain. Make sure you clearly identify which type of strain is associated with each different trait and feature.
Answer:
elastic deformation: the rock returns to its original shape when the stress is removed.
plastic deformation: the rock does not return to its original shape when the stress is removed.
fracture: the rock breaks.
Explanation:
Stress is the force applied to an object. In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. Four types of stresses act on materials.
A deeply buried rock is pushed down by the weight of all the material above it. Since the rock cannot move, it cannot deform. This is called confining stress.
Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break) (figure 1). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.
Rocks that are pulled apart are under tension. Rocks under tension lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress at divergent plate boundaries.
When forces are parallel but moving in opposite directions, the stress is called shear (figure 2). Shear stress is the most common stress at transform plate boundaries.
Stress In Earth’s Crust
Enormous slabs of lithosphere move unevenly over the planet’s spherical surface, resulting in earthquakes. This chapter deals with two types of geological activity that occur because of plate tectonics: mountain building and earthquakes. First, we will consider what can happen to rocks when they are exposed to stress.
A segment has midpoint at (2,-4) and an endpoint at (5,-9). What are the coordinates of the other endpoint?
Answer:
The coordinates of the other endpoint are (-1,1).
Explanation:
Mid point = (2,-4)
One endpoint = (5,-9)
We need to find the coordinates of the other mid points. Let it is (x₂,y₂). Using the mid point formula to find it.
[tex]\text{Mid-points}(x_m,y_m)=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
We have, [tex]x_m=2, y_m=-4, x_1=5, y_1=-9[/tex]
[tex]\text{Mid-points}(2,-4)=(\dfrac{5+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{(-9)+y_2}{2})\\\\\dfrac{5+x_2}{2}=2\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{y_2-9}{2}=-4\\\\5+x_2=4\ \text{and}\ y_2-9=-8\\\\x_2=-1\ \text{and}\ y_2=1[/tex]
So, the coordinates of the other endpoint are (-1,1).
The Earth is heated by light from the Moon.
True
False
Answer:
The moon is not very reflective so the earth only receives a very small amount of "light" reflected that was incident on the moon. Some of this reflected light may be infra-red (heat), but even if it is not some of the visible light reflected will be absorbed by the what it lights up on the earth.
Explanation:
false

Explanation:
Summer and Winter are reversed in time between the Southern and Northern Hemispheres. (2 points)
True
False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The seasons in the Northern Hemisphere are the opposite of those in the Southern Hemisphere. This means that in Argentina and Australia, winter begins in June. The winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere is June 20 or 21, while the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, is December 21 or 22.

g) make two sentences for each of the following using
too and using not... enough
youcan't drinkwine. It's expensive.
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Make two sentences for each of the following using: (i) too, and (ii) not……. enough.
You can't drink wine every day. It's expensive
Answer:
You can’t drink wine every day. It’s expensive.
Wine is too expensive to drink every day.
Wine is not cheap enough to drink every day.
Explanation:
Not enough and too are used to describe something as inadequate.
If the amount of something is more than what we would like we can use the too + adjective form, which only applies in negative circumstances, such as the wine being too expensive. But we can also use the not + adjective + enough form to talk about something that hasn´t reached the desired level.

HOW DOES ALTITUDE AFFECT YOUR BREATHING?
Answer:
In higher altitudes, the air is usually colder, less dense, and has less oxygen molecules. This means that if you were there, you would need to take more breaths to get the same amount of oxygen as you would at lower altitudes. Higher elevation makes it even harder to breathe.
