The Hawaiian Islands were formed because of a

A) hot spot
B) convergent plate boundary
C) divergent plate boundary

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hot spot

Explanation:

The Hawaiian Islands were formed by such a hot spot occurring in the middle of the Pacific Plate.

Answer 2

The Hawaiian Islands were formed because of a hot spot.

Formation of Hawaiian island

The Hawaiian Islands were formed by such a hot spot occurring in the middle of the Pacific Plate. While the hot spot itself is fixed, the plate is moving. So, as the plate moved over the hot spot, the string of islands that make up the Hawaiian Island chain were formed.

Hot spots

Hot spot seamounts that reach the surface of the water can create entire chains of islands, such as the U.S. state of Hawaii. Scientists think that this volcanic chain of islands has been forming for at least 70 million years over a hot spot underneath the Pacific plate.

Thus, The Hawaiian Islands were formed because of a hot spot.

Describe a process that could account for how this strong, dense gneiss was folded without breaking during regional metamorphism.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As can be seen in the description above, gneiss has gone through regional metamorphism. This means that this rock has been subjected to very high temperature and pressure. This triggered a series of chemical transformations in the minerals that this rock presented that had a certain resistance to high temperature and pressure, which prevented them from breaking and promoting the breaking of the rock. However, these minerals showed strong ductility, which caused them to deform their structures, allowing the gneiss to fold, until the temperature and pressure dropped.

Which of the following is added to the assumptions of the single cell model of global circulation to create the three cell model?
a. Earth axis tilt
b. Earth rotation
c. Land masses
d. Seasonal wind shifts

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air and also through which heat is distributed on the surface of the Earth. It describes how air moves across the planet in a specific pattern. It is how heat is redistributed around the globe.

3 cells make up the Global Atmospheric Circulation Model which are the following:

1. Hadley

2. Ferrell

3. Polar

Polar Cell stretches over the North and South poles, having its boundary at around 60° North and South. Ferrell Cell stretches between 30° and 60° North and South and Hadley Cell stretches between the Equator (0°) and 30° North and South.

We assume the seasonal shift of wind to create the single-cell model of global circulation to create the three-cell model.

The movement of air is caused by heat differentiation. It means that the sun heats the earth unevenly and the Equator receives the most concentrated dose of heat.

Earth's tilt over geologic time has stayed at 23.5 degrees since it was created. It has not varied.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

Earths rotates on its axis that is tilted at 23.5° and is reconcile for different seasons on the planet. But the tilt in earth has not been the same since the formation of the planet that is about 4.5 billion years ago. As the earth continued to evolve the Milankovitch cycle that is a cycle of f 40,000 years causes the planet to change its tilt. The tilt in the earth's axis varies from 22.5 to 24.5° and has done so in its geologic time.

What type of climate does equatorial rainforest experience?​

Answers

Answer:

The equatorial rainforest experience high precipitation, constantly high temperatures, and high humidity.

Explanation:

The equatorial rainforest is a biome that generally is found up to 10 or 15 degrees north or south of the equator. They can be found in five continents, South America, North America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. All of them have the same characteristics, with the only difference being the different species of flora and fauna.

The climate is the main factor that defines the equatorial rainforest. It is constantly hot, with minimal variations in the average temperatures throughout the year. Each month has at least 60 mm of rainfall, thus they have high precipitation levels throughout the whole year. Because of the high temperatures and high precipitation, the evaporation rates are very high, so the humidity is constantly very high.

Describe why people settled in the Balkan Peninsula by the A.D. 400s and
500s.

Answers

Answer:

People especially Germanic tribes started settling during the Great Migrations, that was started by the Huns. They were practically obliged to move from the region of Eastern Europe to the region of Eastern and Western Empire. Additionally, one important reason for their removal was the lack of land that could produce them enough food.

Explanation:

Germanic tribes lived across the border of the Danube river, and were divided into many tribes - Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Vandals... They were often mercenaries in Roman Empire but still lived outside the border of it. But, when the Huns came to Europe they started settling in the Balkan Peninsula. They were ravaging the territories, conquering cities, even killed a Byzantine emperor in the battle.

how do you use fossils to tell time

Answers

Explanation:

The fossils at the bottom are the oldest and the fossils at the top are the newest. (Couldn't think of another way to say it >.<)

"To get an age in years, we use radiometric dating of the rocks. Not every rock can be dated this way, but volcanic ash deposits are among those that can be dated. The position of the fossils above or below a dated ash layer allows us to work out their ages. The volcanic ash layer is dated as 507 million years old."

Answers

Answer: The realm of North Africa and Southwest Asia is large and expansive in terms of physical area, but its regions share a number of common qualities. The physical area of this realm is divided into three regions: North Africa, Southwest Asia, and the countries of Turkestan (the geographic region of Central Asia). The countries in the North African region include the countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea from Morocco to Sudan. The realm borders the Atlantic Ocean, the Sahara Desert, and the African Transition Zone. Egypt has territory in both Africa and Asia through its possession of the Sinai Peninsula.

Explanation:

:)

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information:

Modifying land is a common activity in all regions of the world. People modify their environments so they can use the resources for survival and profit. Land in South and Southeast Asia commonly is modified for three things: lumber, farming, and palm oil plantations. People in South and Southeast Asia use lumber to build structures, create furniture, and make ornamental objects, as well as to sell and to export to other regions. To modify land for farming, people in South and Southeast Asia use a technique known as slash-and-burn farming to clear areas and create fertile soil. This allows them to continue farming even after some land loses its nutrients. Finally, people in South and Southeast Asia create palm oil plantations, which produce an important oil used to fry, preserve, and create consistency in food. It is also used as a biodiesel fuel and exported around the world. These are all positive modifications that have enhanced the lives of people living in these regions. However, these land modifications also cause some negative effects. Deforestation has been a large problem in these regions. Forests are disappearing and taking plants and animals’ habitats with them. Many of these forests are not growing back and may not come back for hundreds of years. When vegetation is replanted, it sometimes lacks diversity and makes it hard for animals to find new homes. Deforestation can also limit resources for future populations. Finally, air pollution is a common result of slash-and-burn farming.

2.Throughout the year, weather conditions change rapidly in Champaign-Urbana. During the summer months, strong southerly winds often bring high-dewpoint air from the Gulf of Mexico northward into the Midwest. How do these strong southerly winds affect the vapor pressure

Answers

Explanation:

The air coming from the Gulf of Mexico loaded with moisture has a greater weight, so a density greater than the air in the city, so its pressure is higher than the air pressure in the city.

If we consider that the speed in both airs is the same, we can see that

P₁ - P₂ = ½ (ρ₂ - ρ₁) v².

Therefore there is a negative variation in atmospheric pressure, so the pressure must decrease in cities and fields
