Prominent sea-level changes and climate fluctuations occurred during the past 103-105 years. Sea level changes strongly influence river behaviour and coastal development. Climate changes affect the discharge and sediment load characteristics of rivers and also the development of a protective vegetation cover that stabilises the landscape. Changes in sea level and/or climate induce changes in river type, channel pattern and sediment sequences. Climate changes during the (recent) Quaternary had a particularly strong impact. In (now) temperate regions, glacial climate was much drier and colder than today. Wet-tropical areas were drier as well. A belt of permafrost surrounded the large continental ice sheets and sea levels were some 120 m and perhaps even 135 m lower than today. There are strong indications that mass wasting processes such as frost weathering<span> and </span>`gelifluction'<span> in high-relief areas were more prominent than today and that consequently the sediment loads of rivers were greater than at present. Once most of the Pleistocene ice cover had disappeared, some 6,000 years ago, the rate of sea level rise decreased and coasts adapted to the higher sea level. Today, (Pleistocene) glaciers that have long disappeared still influence some 15 percent of the land surface. It is impossible to understand the complexity of `landforms in lowlands' without referring to their present climate </span>and<span> their climatic history.</span>

In dna replication, each individual parent strand acts as a _____ strand for the synthesis of a _____ strand.
irina [24]
The answer is template strand; daughter strand.

<span>In DNA replication, each individual parent strand acts as a <u>template</u> strand for the synthesis of a <u>daughter</u> strand. DNA replication is a process of producing of two identical copies of DNA from the original DNA. DNA molecule consists of two strands and each strand serves as a template strand for the synthesis of a daughter cell. DNA polymerase binds to the origins of replication and synthesises daughter strands by adding complementary nucleotides.</span>

Classify the events as autogenic or allogenic succession.
nydimaria [60]

In ecology, allogenic succession is mediated by the abiotic components of the ecosystem, while the autogenic succession refers to the succession, which is mediated by the biotic components of an ecosystem.  

A volcanic eruption wiping out an entire island is an example of allogenic succession.  

A soybean crop helping in nitrogen fixation, leading to the development of other species is an illustration of autogenic succession.  

A tsunami devastating all the living organism in a habitat is an example of allogenic succession.  

Oak trees preventing the growth of smaller sun-seeking shrubs is an example of autogenic succession.

A scientific argument will be considered invalid if the evidence supporting the argument is based on
Sauron [17]
A scientific argument will be considered invalid if the evidence supporting the argument is based on independent data.
If you are only referring to a single scientist or a single study conducted on a certain topic, it means that it hasn't been researched enough for the argument to be reliable. Every scientist needs to refer to other studies and other scientists and their work if they want their arguments to be valid.
