The correct answer is - Tundra is much cooler than deserts, so less water evaporates during the growing season and the tundra stays more moist.
The tundra is a very cold biome. In fact, most of the year is winter, and there is only a short period of time when it is summer, and that is not really a summer in the true sense of the word, as it is relatively cold and fresh.
Since for most of the year the tundra is frozen, the water is not evaporating, and during the very short ''summer'', it defrosts, so it becomes all very marshy, and that allows the plants to grow there.
Also, because the summer so short and relatively cold, the evaporation of the water is minimal, so most of the water just frozen again in the winter.
Answer:
The intermediate magma has a heterogeneous structure, since it has a part of Silice, approximately 50-60% to be more exact.
When it turns into lava, it produces rocks like the Andesite and, in the opposite case of its crystallization, it forms rocks like the Diorite.
A comparison of felsic magma is much more viscous.
It is important to clarify that this magma is a type of primary magma, that is to say that they are magmas formed from the fusion of the rocks of the mantle or the crust.
Explanation:
The fusion of these rocks are what would give rise to the intermediate magma, this intermediate magma is a primary magma, like the mafic and felsic.
The primary magmas unlike the derived magmas is the origin or the reason for how they are formed, which is what we write above, derived magmas usually form differently since they are the product of the evolution or changes that magmas undergo primary
Answer:
Karst topography is formed from soluble rocks with many features that create crevices that channel or funnel the surface water into the ground and aquifers below. This can lead to contamination of the water quality in aquifers.
Explanation:
Karst topography refers to the topography formed from soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. The topography evolves as the soluble rocks are exposed to wind, sun, and precipitation that erodes the rock materials and creates crevices and the groundwater is channeled away from the surface, inhibiting the formation of lakes and reserves of water at the surface. When these sorts of rocks begin to dissolve caves and crevices and other forms of underground drainage. Five topographic features a geologist might find are solutions flutes and limestone pavement, cenotes, funnel-shaped sinkholes, and reappearing streams.
The surface hazards associated with karst topography are sinkholes as well as other topographic hazards such as subsidence and slope movements. There is a lot of surface water and groundwater interaction in a landscape with karst typography and so aquifers are susceptible to contamination from pollution and the use of fertilizers and chemicals at a higher rate than other topographies. Urban areas and areas where there is a lot of animal husbandry are especially vulnerable to aquifer contamination.
Answer:
Yes, it does.
Explanation:
All of the continents that are seperate today were in the form of a single giant continent up until approximately 175 million years ago.
They drifted apart in time because of the molten lava that is constantly flowing right underneath the earth's hardened shell. Also, archeological discoveries that indicate the same species of animals/plants lived on different continents such as Europe and America long before humans or intercontinental travel were around.
I hope this answer helps.
By the 1700's, the Church’s power had diminished and states had emerged as the uncontested authority in Europe.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
During the 18th Century, the theocratic system saw the downfall as the church’s power had declined and the intellectual movement of the Europe had taken the momentum. The concept of freedom, knowledge, liberty, rights had started emerging.
At the time, the concept of State emerged as people considered the state as the protector of their rights and liberty and saw this as the beneficial arrangement. State and idea of government had established in the Europe after the decline of church’s power.
