A hot spots on ocean floors
B. selsmic activity atong plate boundaries
C. sediment buildup on continental stope
D. marte fossils fou on and masses

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Marine fossils found on landmasses.

Explanation:

Earth is an active planet, with tectonic plates that constantly move across the surface and cause changes in the distribution of physical features. The changes, in a most basic manner, can be seen in the creation of new continental masses and new ocean basins, and the destruction of continental masses and ocean basins.

The oceans we see at present have not been around forever, but they formed where plates have started to separate, while in meantime the preexisting oceans have suffered decline and eventual destruction because of it. An excellent example of where there were oceans in the past are the marine fossils. In many parts of the world that now are part of the continents, there is a huge number of marine fossils, even on mountain ranges like the Himalayas and Andes. This proves that in the past, these landmasses were part of an ocean, but because of uplift they have risen up and became part of the landmasses.

What type of erosion is the most important in the upper course of a river?

Answers

Answer:

Vertical or fluvial erosion

Explanation:

Fluvial or river erosion is a geomorphological process of constructed forms in the relief of the river flow.

Flowing over the topographic surface in the direction of the greatest fall, and under the influence of the earth's gravity, river flows create their own forms of relief. These are fluvial forms.

Fluvial forms can be: erosive, if they are created by cutting the river flow, accumulative if they are built by accumulating eroded fluvial material in places where the erosive and transport power of river water is weak.

The Dead Sea, which lies between Jordan and Israel, is one of the saltiest lakes on Earth. Suppose you are a geologist exploring the area. What geological factors would you expect to see that might explain this salinity

Answers

Answer:

- Lack of outlets for water to escape and relatively impermeable soil at the bottom of the lake.

Explanation:

Salinity is characterized as the 'quality of being salty or containing salt in a solution.' The geological factors that might assist in elaborating the salinity of The Dead Sea would include 'the absence of outlets allowing water to escape and comparatively resistant soil at the core of the lake.' It will help in explaining the high concentration of salt at the bottom of the sea which makes it one of the saltiest water bodies across the globe.  

Due to the lack of water holding capacity of the soil and high temperature the region has a higher salinity. The higher rate of evaporation and dryness of the region makes the sea saline.

Unable to allow water to escape nd having no outlet is one of the major reason for salinity.

B.
strong executive branches
C.
free and fair elections
D.
most people having little say in government

Answers

Answer:

Free and fair elections are not characteristic of the authoritarian governments in East Asia.

Explanation:

At present, East Asia has two countries that have authoritarian governments. Those two countries are China and North Korea, both of which have a communist type of government, though China has at least transitioned economically, while North Korea hasn't and still has a command type of economy.

These governments tend to rule with an iron fist, having full control of both politics and society, as well as having the economy in their hands and working in accordance with their rules. Human rights are violated on a daily basis, with many gruesoume things occurring regularly. Something that can not be found is free and fair elections. In China, there are elections, but people can only vote for the communist party, which later instals its own people by its desire, while in North Korea the leadership is hereditary. To put it simple, people have little to no say in government.
