Answer:

A. The North Pole is tilted towards the sun

Explanation:

In Northern Hemisphere's summer, the North Pole is tilted towards the sun.

That's why the days are longer and warmer. While it's summer in the North, it's winter in the South.

The other offered answers are wrong:

B. South Pole is tilted towards the sun. That's when it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

C. the sun's rays grow less direct.  No, on the contrary, that's why we get warmth in summer.

D. The sun appears directly overhead. That's not possible at any time of the year in the Northern hemisphere, you have to be close to the Equator line for this to happen.

study information related to the Cenozoic era

Explanation:

A good understanding of the geologic time scale is required here.

The absolute age of 34mya for the Eocene falls in the Cenozoic era.

The geologic time scale is divide into Eons, Eras, Periods, Epoch, Age.

The Eons are larger divisions than any other group.

The GTS is divided into 4 era:

Precambrian

Paleozoic

Mesozoic

Cenozoic

The Precambrian era is the oldest while the Cenozoic is just a few million years.

The age of the Cenozoic lies between Recent to 66mya ago. This is where the Eocene should lie.

Study information is the correct option.

A star exists due to the balance between two forces:

1. The gravity force that tries to squeeze the stellar material into the smallest and most compact ball possible.

2. The nuclear force, generating heat and pressure in the center of the star that tries to push all the material out.

Now, when the star has occupied all its nuclear fuel, the expansive pressure can no longer counteract gravity and the star suddenly collapses.

When this happens, a supernova is formed, which causes the expulsion of the outer layers of the star by means of powerful shock waves, enriching the space that surrounds it with heavy elements.

So, it can be said that a supernova is the bright, last breath of a star that is at least five times more massive than the Sun.

Answer:

A. Ice sheets and glaciers

Explanation:

The majority of the freshwater on Earth is not actually in liquid form, but it is frozen. Around 87% of the total freshwater reserves are located in the ice sheets around the North Pole and South Pole, as well as the glaciers in close proximity tot he poles and the higher mountains. This is a big problem since only 13% of the freshwater reserves are in liquid form, 12% of which are groundwater, and only 1% being a surface water. Big portion of the surface water has been polluted, thus it is not good for usage, while the groundwater is constantly being depleted.

The freshwater reserves vary from period to period, and it depends a lot on the climate. In the periods when there's an ice age, the ice sheets and glaciers account for even higher percentage of the freshwater reserves, but in the warmer periods, the surface water and the groundwater increase.

The magma rises to the crust above it mostly because of the cracks that appear in the crust and the high pressure from the mantle that pushes the magma through these cracks. The cracks in the crust appear because of the tectonic activities, on and in close proximity to the plate boundaries. This is why the volcanic activities, a product of rising magma, are found along the plate boundaries. The magma can rich the crust and solidify in it, or it can come out on the surface in the form of lava flows. The one that solidifies inside the crust forms the intrusive igneous rocks, while the one that comes on the surface forms the extrusive igneous rocks. The rocks formed from the magma are the basis for the formation of the other rock types, as well as for the formation of land masses, and soils.

Answer:

Granite

Explanation:

The continental crust is the upper most layer of the Earth, being higher than the oceanic crust, and floating on top of the denser mantle layer bellow it. It is 35 km thick on average, but it is not very dense. The continental crust is mostly made out of granitic rocks. These rocks have been made out of mostly by basaltic magma/lava in the past. The majority of this magma/lava that has cooled and created the crust has remained in the form of igneous rocks, while some have experienced metamorphism, and some have become sedimentary rocks. The granite though is not the densest and heaviest of rocks, making this crust the lightest of all. The continental crust currently occupies around 40% of the top layer of the Earth, but that is something that has been constantly changing, with certain periods have only 10%,and others 60%.

Answer:

Some places rely on water from the ice sheets to replenish their water supply

Explanation:

The melting of the ice sheets can and will cause a lot of problems, but replenishing water supplies is not one of them as there isn't such a thing going on in the world that uses the water from the ice sheets. The areas where the ice sheets are are mostly not populated, and the majority of the settlements are actually scientific and military stations, not permanent settlements.

The melting though will cause lot of problems, and mainly because of where the human population is distributed, mostly along the coastlines. If this was not the case, then the melting of the ice sheets would have been a very useful thing as more places would become greener, larger area will be available for agriculture, and the climate in general will be more pleasant. Unfortunately, the people mostly live along the coastlines, so the rising sea levels, and change of the ocean currents will cause a lot of damage. While the loss of the ice around the poles will result in the dying out of numerous species of flora and fauna that is specialized to that environment.

Answer:

Stratosphere

Explanation:

The layer through which the jets are flying is the stratosphere. This atmospheric layer is the second layer by distance from the lithosphere, being above the troposphere, and bellow the mesosphere. It is a layer where the gasses are much more dispersed than in the troposphere, thus making it less dense. On the other hand, it has air movements that are are relatively strong and constant, which is something that is very useful for flight, thus the jets are flying in this layer in order to have easier and cheaper flight. What makes this layer very important and marking is the layer in itself, the ozone layer. This layer is crucial for the survival of the living organisms on the planet, as this is the layer that stops and absorbs the majority of the UV rays from the sun, thus not allowing them to reach the surface at their full potential, stopping them to fry alive the living organisms.

The Republic of Ireland shares the island of Ireland with Northern Ireland, making it the independent country that shares an island with a region of the United Kingdom.

The independent country that shares an island with one of the regions of the United Kingdom is the Republic of Ireland. The Republic of Ireland shares the island of Ireland with Northern Ireland, which is one of the four constituent regions of the UK, the others being England, Scotland, and Wales. Ireland became an independent nation in 1921, following the Irish War of Independence, while Northern Ireland opted to remain part of the United Kingdom.

Scotland, while also having strong independence movements, is not the correct answer because it does not share an island with an independent country; it is part of the island of Great Britain.

Devolution has allowed Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland certain degrees of self-governance, but only the Republic of Ireland is a completely independent state sharing an island with a UK region.

A, C, and E are correct.

Explanation:

A: Our solar system is in the Milky Way galaxy, a spiral galaxy. (True)

B: Pluto is still in the solar system, just not a planet. (False)

C: There is mostly empty space in our solar system. (True)

D: We cannot be in the Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy. (False)

E: No other planet, let alone solar system, has been found to support life. (True)

The solar system is present in the spiral galaxy known as the Milky Way Galaxy, with most of the space being empty and supporting life with only one planet the Earth.

A galaxy is a system comprises of millions of stars along with dust and gaseous matter which attracts each other by a gravitational force.

The solar system is a system bounded by the Sun and the gravitational objects known as planets that revolve in an orbit around the Sun. It is present in the Milky Way Galaxy where most of the space is entirely empty and supports life only on one planet called Earth apart from other planets.

Therefore, the system which presents in a spiral galaxy with more empty space and supported life is considered a solar system.

Answer:

These revolutions of the Earth, refer specifically to its translation movement, which consists of the elliptical orbit that describes the Earth around the Sun.

So, a complete revolution around the Sun occurs every 365 days, 5 hours, 48 ​​minutes and about 46 seconds. It is thanks to this movement and that the Earth's axis is tilted with respect to the plane of its orbit about [tex]23\º[/tex], that the four seasons of the year exist.

That is why some regions receive different amounts of sunlight according to the seasons of the year. These variations are more evident near the poles and softer or imperceptible in the tropics (near the equator). This explains the fact that while in the northern hemisphere it is summer and there are high temperatures (because the Sunlight incides more perpendicularly in this area during this season), in the southern hemisphere it is winter and very low temperatures are recorded, and vice versa.

However, as the Earth continues its translational movement, the solar radiation affects more obliquely, as is the case of the spring and summer seasons.

It should be noted that near the equator, as previously mentioned, these changes are not very noticeable and the temperature tends to be more stable, with only two seasons: rain and drought.

Usually, the rock is moving along large cracks in Earth's crust called faults. Most earthquakes happen at or near the boundaries between Earth's tectonic plates because that's where there is usually a large concentration of faults. ... Movement along those faults can cause earthquakes too. Also, Earthquakes happen when rock below the Earth's surface move. Causing the Earth's surface to crack the closer you are to the plate boundaries the more pressure you get do too more force which is an earthquake.

C. Quality of life is the correct answer

Factors such as infant mortality rate, literacy rate, average family income, and life expectancy” are used to measure Development.

Explanation:

The term Development is related to the social and economic progress. The necessary conditions for development are growth. There are many factors used to measure Development such as Population growth, Urbanization, Infrastructure, Social conditions, etc.  

In these measures, social condition category includes the following: Literacy rate, Life Expectancy, infant mortality rate, health care, caloric intake, average family income, etc. Thus, the factors explained above are most often used for measuring Development.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Development of fog by radiation occurs mainly over land when the land loses heat by radiation. The land hence cools the atmosphere above. The moisture in this air then reaches dewpoint and fog forms.

Development of fog by advection can occur over both land and water. It involves warm moist air mass moving over a cool/cold land or water and hence the warm moist air cools and the moisture in it reaches dew point forming fog.

Answer:

Subductio zone

Explanation:

The Mariana trench is a result of the convergent plate boundary between the Filipino plate and Pacific plate, creating a subduction zone. The Filipino plate is not a large one, but still the much larger Pacific plate is subducting below it. The reason for this is that the Pacific plate is denser, heavier, lower. At the boundary itself, the Pacific plate moves below the Filipino plate, slowly getting into the mantle layer and getting melted and destroyed. The subduction zone though makes a large gap between the two plates, a gap that is constantly under immense pressure and experiences constant geological activity. This gap is filled with the ocean water, and it is actually the deepest place on the surface of the Earth with over 11 km bellow sea level. The name of it comes from the island chain next to the subduction zone, the Mariana Islands, thus it is called Mariana trench.

Population growth is regulated by density-dependent and density-independent factors. Understanding these factors is important for managing populations and preventing extinction or overpopulation.

Nature regulates population growth in a variety of ways. These are grouped into density-dependent factors, in which the density of the population at a given time affects growth rate and mortality, and density-independent factors, which influence mortality in a population regardless of population density. Conservation biologists want to understand both types because this helps them manage populations and prevent extinction or overpopulation.

Stretching of the Universe results in white dwarf supernova, an observed distant had a cosmological red shift of z = 1.6, the cosmological red shift value indicates the Hubble/recession velocity or distance of the object.

Answer:

The formula for these kind of problems is:

Z = ((distance now)/ (distance before)) - 1

We know, Z=1.6

So, we get:

(Distance now)/ (distance before) = 1.6 + 1 = 2.6

Explanation:

The massive cosmic explosions due to burning of stars instead of fading ends their evolution is known as supernovae. The supernovae explosion leads to dropping of matter into space at nearly nine thousand to twenty five thousand miles that is 15,000 to 40,000 km/s. These unconditional blasts produce most of the materials in the universe which includes some elements, such as iron, which helps to make up our needs and even our planets'. The Supernovae is solely responsible for produced heavy elements, so we carry the remains of these distant explosions within our own bodies.

Answer: im pretty sure thats false

The statement that every nation has its own state is false. While there are about 195 recognized states, there are around 5,000 nations characterized by shared language and history, and many states contain multiple nations.

The statement 'Every nation has its own state' is false. There are approximately 195 states in the world, each with its own characteristics such as territorial borders, government, and sovereignty. However, there are about 5,000 nations, which are populations with common language, history, and cultural traits. Many states are multinational entities, and very few are nation-states, where the nation wholly comprises the state. For example, Japan is often seen as a nation-state with a majority of the population being ethnically Japanese, but it also includes minority groups like the Ainu.

Nation-states are ideals where citizens share a common heritage and governance, such as Italy for Italians, or Germany for Germans. Yet, this ideal is rarely achieved due to internal diversity and the presence of various ethnic groups within the borders of a state. The concept of a nation-state is more pronounced in Europe but remains a challenge due to cultural diversity.

The Missouri River is one of the longest, and one of the most important rivers in the United States. This river passes through multiple states, starting from Montana and ending at the border between Missouri and Illinois where it enters the Mississippi River. Considering the length of this river, it is nothing unusual that it has lot of tributaries, some of which large, some small. The largest tributaries of the Missouri River are the Osage, Cheyenne, Kansas, Platte, Niobrara, and Yellowstone rivers, all coming from southern and western direction, while the James and Milk rivers are coming from northern direction.

All these tributaries make the river and the settlements around it to be well connected deep into the interior of the country, providing easy transport and travel. This river, together with its larger tributaries is crucial for the agriculture in this part of the country, as the majority of the water used for irrigation comes from their waters.

Answer:

The Panama canal

Explanation:

Opened in 1914, the Panama canal allows maritime traffic to travel between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans very rapidly through a system of locks (2 on the Pacific side, one in the Atlantic side), and the boats pass through an artificial lake crossing the whole country of Panama.

It takes just a few hours to cross from one side to the other, while it would take weeks to go down to the tip of South America and back up.

In 2016, the canal opened new locks, that can receive larger boats.
