This activity will familiarize you with these patterns. Match the below words with the appropriate blanks.a. Sea-to-land breezes blow in an__________ direction.b. ____________ currents are circular movements of rising and descending air.c. Land-to-sea breezes (local winds) oocur during_________d. During the day, air above sea is________ than the above land.1. Offshore2. Convectional3. daytime4. warmer5. differential6. Night time7. Cooler8. Onshore
Answer:
The correct answer is -
a. 8. onshore
b. 2. convectional
c. 3. night time
d. 7. cooler
Explanation:
1. Sea-to-land breezes blow an onshore direction.
Onshore means it occurred towards the land and offshore suggests the process is occurring on the sea or water so, the here onshore is the correct term.
2. Convectional currents are circular movements of rising and descending air.
3. Land-to-sea breezes take place during Nighttime.
Offshore breezes are occurred during night time as at night the temperature falls more on land than sea or water.
4. During the day, the air above sea is Cooler than it is above land as evaporation and specific heat of water caused water warmer which moves towars land.

Overall, sedimentary rocks comprising most of the oceanic crust tend to be much older than plateaus of rocks found far away from volcanic activity in the center of continents.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
Oceanic crust, while older than plateaus of rocks found far away from volcanic activity, it is much thinner, denser, younger, and of different chemical composition than continental crust. Continental crust is typically 30-50 km thick, whilst oceanic crust is only 5-10 km thick. On the other hand, plateaus of rocks are formed from volcanic activities and are of more recent occurrence than oceanic crust.

Question is incomplete. (Choices were missing)
Complete question:
In addition to certain types of minerals, Curiosity was designed to find a certain class of materials in the rocks. Although not necessarily an indicator of life itself, what type of materials that are important for life (or could even be the products of life) is Curiosity equipped to find in the rocks?
Group of answer choices
1.Organic materials
2.Cryptocrystalline materials
3.Inorganic materials
4.Superconducting materials
Answer:
Organic material
Explanation:
Organic material consist of a whole series of product which ranges from the undecomposed plant and animal tissues. It basically refers to material which has hydrogen -carbon bonds as essential structures. As we all know Carbon is the element which is fundamental to life.
Organic material is basically a reservoir of nutrients that can be released in the soil.
Apart from this certain other elements such as:
HydrogennitrogenSulphur etcare also needed to produce organic material. So if such materials are found, they potentially indicate towards life.
Hence, the correct answer is organic material.

Below is a simplified profile of the Atlantic Ocean from south (left) to north (right) showing three different water masses. Colder, saltier water is more dense than warmer, less salty water.
3. what are two likely characteristics of water mass A in the diagram above?
3a. warm or cold
3b. less or more salty
4. where are two likely characteristics of water mass C in the diagram above?
4a. warm or cold
4b. less or more salty
5 which water mass is most dense?
5a. A, B, or C
6. which water mass is least dense?
6a. A, B, or C
Answer:
3. water mass A is warm and saltier
4. water mass C is cold and less salty
5. water mas C is the densest
6. Water mass A is the least dense.
Explanation:
Before answering the questions, we will review some theoric about water masses and their distribution.
On the sea surface, density increases from the equator to the poles. In-depth, density increases from the surface to the bottom of the ocean. Density distribution in depth is controlled by temperature.Water masses that are denser tend to sink faster than less dense water masses. Less dense water places above the denser water. The difference in density generates convective streams. Denser colder, and heavier water descends, while less dense, warmer, and lighter water ascends.
Vertical water motion in the ocean between the surface and the bottom is inhibited by the density contrast between the inferior layer and the superior one. However, in the poles, there is hardly any temperature variation between the surface and the bottom.
Cold and dense water masses come from the polar regions at higher latitudes. Different water masses can be differentiated from the surface to the bottom in the middle of the ocean.
Central water massIt is in the central region of the ocean. It generates between the subtropical convergent zones. It might reach up to 1000 mt deep. This mass of water is the most saline one, and its temperature ranges from 8ºC to 25ºC. It is the most saline water because it is subjected to high evaporation.
Intermediate water mass: AntarcticIt is under the central water mass. It generates in the artic and antarctic convergent regions. The most extended one is the antarctic one, which is originated in the subantarctic superficial water. Its temperature ranges from 2ºC to 7ºC, and its salinity ranges from 34,1o/oo to 34,7o/oo.
Deep Arctic water massIt is produced by the mixture of the high salinity water from the Gulf stream and the superficial subarctic water. These masses are in the Atlantic ocean. Its temperature ranges from 3 to 4ºC, and its salinity media is 34,9o/oo.
Deep Antarctic water massThe densest water mass. Originated during the winter in the Antarctic region, but can be found up to 30ºN of latitude. Its temperature ranges from -1ºC to 0.5ºC, and its low salinity is approximately 34.7 o/oo. They are in the Pacific and Indic oceans.
In the exposed image, we can identify
the X ax → Latitude → 0º is the Equatorthe Y ax → DepthA) This is the most superficial one, and is well-placed from the equator to the subtropics. More or less 40º latitude north and south. This mass is probably the central mass, which is the most saline due to the high evaporation rate, and the warmest. It is almost 1000 mt deep.
Question: what are two likely characteristics of water mass A in the diagram above?
3a. warm or cold
3b. less or more salty
Water mass A is warm and saltier.
B) This mass is coming from the north pole. At high latitudes, there is little variation of temperature between the superficial region and the deep region. It is placed under mass A. It is colder than A, and less saline.
C) This is the densest mass, coming from the south pole. A little variation of temperature between the superficial region and the deep region. It reaches up to 25º north in latitude, approximately.
Question: What are two likely characteristics of water mass C in the diagram above?
4a. warm or cold
4b. less or more salty
Water mass C is cold and less salty.
Question: which water mass is most dense?
A, B, or C
Remember that density increases from the equator to the poles, and from the surface to the bottom. So, the densest mass is C.
Question: which water mass is least dense?
A, B, or C
The same reasoning as before. Mass A is the most superficial one and between the subtropics, making it the densest mass of water.
realiza un cartel en tu cuaderno donde expreses las consecuencias que podría traer si el ser humano no modifica sus prácticas contaminantes.
AYUDA PORFAVOR LO NECESITO URGENTE Y OES DOY CORONITA
Answer:
Desequilibrio de ecosistema, aumento de temperatura y extinción de animales del ecosistema.
Explicación:
Las principales consecuencias de las prácticas contaminantes de los seres humanos son el desequilibrio del ecosistema, el aumento de la temperatura y la extinción de los animales del ecosistema. La concentración de dióxido de carbono es la principal causa del aumento de la temperatura global que derrite los glaciares presentes en los polos, lo que conduce a un aumento del nivel del mar e inundaciones. El aumento que se produce en la temperatura hace que el ambiente sea inadecuado para los organismos por lo que pueden ser migrados o extinguidos de la tierra.

1.2.1 According to the bill, when last did Mrs Gwayi make a payment to the municipality?
Answer:
A municipality is usually a single administrative division having corporate status and powers of self-government or jurisdiction as granted by national and regional laws to which it is subordinate.The term municipality may also mean the governing or ruling body of a given municipality.[1] A municipality is a general-purpose administrative subdivision, as opposed to a special-purpose district.
The term is derived from French municipalité and Latin municipalis.[2] The English word municipality derives from the Latin social contract municipium (derived from a word meaning "duty holders"), referring to the Latin communities that supplied Rome with troops in exchange for their own incorporation into the Roman state (granting Roman citizenship to the inhabitants) while permitting the communities to retain their own local governments (a limited autonomy).
A municipality can be any political jurisdiction from a sovereign state, such as the Principality of Monaco, to a small village, such as West Hampton Dunes, New York.
The territory over which a municipality has jurisdiction may encompass
only one populated place such as a city, town, or village
several of such places (e.g., early jurisdictions in the U.S. state of New Jersey (1798–1899) as townships governing several villages, Municipalities of Mexico, Municipalities of Colombia)
only parts of such places, sometimes boroughs of a city such as the 34 municipalities of Santiago, Chile.[3]

Which of the following statements is FALSE about the concept of uniformitarianism as related to natural disasters?
a. If you have earthquakes in a location, then you will probably have them there in the future.
b. Natural disasters are a natural part of the Earth, humans can do nothing that will affect them.
c. The processes that caused the erosion of the land have been doing their work since the Earth's formation.
d. The reason why volcanoes erupt today is the same as it was in the past.
e. All of the above statements are true about uniformitarianism.
Answer:
Option E
Explanation:
In simple words, uniformitarianism can be understood as the belief that Planet's geologic mechanisms worked in the very same way and with roughly the same strength in the history like they do now, and that this regularity is enough to explain all geologic changes.
In the given case, all the options are stating the same relation between past and present hence the correct option is E.

Pangaea questions, questions in screenshot.
Answer:
While looking at a map of the current Earth, it's continents and land forms can often align, much like a puzzle. This indicates that at one point, Pangea may have been possible. Additionally, the motion of the Earth's tectonic plates supports the thoory of Pangea, as if you were to watch the motion of the Earth's tectonic plates in reverse, you would see that the motion of the pplates would draw land masses closer together.
