Answer:
Russia- 11% of the world's land area.
What are three differences between brittle and plastic strain (may include both characteristics of the strain as well as the conditions and locations where each type of strain occurs), and give an example of the type of structure (deformation feature) associated with each type of strain. Make sure you clearly identify which type of strain is associated with each different trait and feature.
Answer:
elastic deformation: the rock returns to its original shape when the stress is removed.
plastic deformation: the rock does not return to its original shape when the stress is removed.
fracture: the rock breaks.
Explanation:
Stress is the force applied to an object. In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. Four types of stresses act on materials.
A deeply buried rock is pushed down by the weight of all the material above it. Since the rock cannot move, it cannot deform. This is called confining stress.
Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break) (figure 1). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.
Rocks that are pulled apart are under tension. Rocks under tension lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress at divergent plate boundaries.
When forces are parallel but moving in opposite directions, the stress is called shear (figure 2). Shear stress is the most common stress at transform plate boundaries.
Stress In Earth’s Crust
Enormous slabs of lithosphere move unevenly over the planet’s spherical surface, resulting in earthquakes. This chapter deals with two types of geological activity that occur because of plate tectonics: mountain building and earthquakes. First, we will consider what can happen to rocks when they are exposed to stress.

Megalodon left an awful lot of teeth behind, but don't worry. It is likely that it had plenty of extras. Like modern sharks, Megalodon had several rows of teeth. Scientists believe that Megalodon had six rows of 7-inch-wide, razor-sharp teeth, top and bottom, for a total of 276 teeth in its giant jaws! It's no wonder, then, that this ancient shark left so many of them behind. Without this trail of teeth, we would not know that these enormous creatures swam the ancient oceans as a top predator.Select the two sentences that support the idea that scientists combine knowledge from different fields to do their jobs.
A. A Good Guess
B. In order to make the comparison, scientists use a mixture of math and science.
C. Scientists know that there is a relationship between the size of a modern shark's teeth and its body length.
D. Using a mathematical formula, scientists can use Megalodon's teeth to make an educated guess about how long it was.
E. Giant-sized Tooth Fairy
F. Megalodon left an awful lot of teeth behind, but don't worry
G. It is likely that it had plenty of extras.
H. Like modern sharks, Megalodon had several rows of teeth.
I. Scientists believe that Megalodon had six rows of 7-inch-wide, razor-sharp teeth, top and bottom, for a total of 276 teeth in its giant jaws
J. It's no wonder, then, that this ancient shark left so many of them behind.
K. Without this trail of teeth, we would not know that these enormous creatures swam the ancient oceans as a top predator.
Answer:
B & D
Explanation:
If water is the primary transport mechanism for a given sediment, the grain size MOST closely indicates the:_______
a. geographic extent of the weathering source rock at outcrop.
b. average velocity of the water from the time of erosion until deposition.
c. velocity of the water at the moment the sediment settled to the bottom.
d. climate conditions at the time of deposition
Answer:
c. velocity of the water at the moment the sediment settled to the bottom.
Explanation:
The size of a grain determines the speed with which a stream of water will be able to transport that grain to the bottom of a system. This is because the grain size is directly related to its mass. This causes larger grains to be transported at a slower speed, as they make it harder for water to carry them, due to their weight. On the other hand, smaller grains are lighter and offer less water resistance, being carried more easily.
What do you know about the rock cycle and the three type of rocks?
Answer:
There are three main types of rocks: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Each of these rocks are formed by physical changes—such as melting, cooling, eroding, compacting, or deforming—that are part of the rock cycle. Sedimentary rocks are formed from pieces of other existing rock or organic material
Explanation:
g) make two sentences for each of the following using
too and using not... enough
youcan't drinkwine. It's expensive.
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Make two sentences for each of the following using: (i) too, and (ii) not……. enough.
You can't drink wine every day. It's expensive
Answer:
You can’t drink wine every day. It’s expensive.
Wine is too expensive to drink every day.
Wine is not cheap enough to drink every day.
Explanation:
Not enough and too are used to describe something as inadequate.
If the amount of something is more than what we would like we can use the too + adjective form, which only applies in negative circumstances, such as the wine being too expensive. But we can also use the not + adjective + enough form to talk about something that hasn´t reached the desired level.

Explanation: i am not sure
Answer:
B. The days are the same length as the nights
Explanation:
During equinox, the days are the same length as the nights.
At equinox, the earth's hemispheres have equal length of daylight and night time.
Equinox is a Latin word which denotes equal nightIt occurs ever 6 monthsDuring March 19 and at September 22The earth receives equal amount of daylight and darknessMost of the planets in the solar system exhibits this phenomenonThe opposite of equinox is solsticecan you help me please

The French term "Levant," used to describe the Eastern Mediterranean subregion,
refers to the sun rising in the East.
True or False
Answer:
Correct answer is TRUE.
Explanation:
This is correct as countries of Eastern Mediterranean are far east for France, especially during the Middle Ages. When the Crusaders were going to the East to trade with great trade centers of this area, they were referred as the area where the sun rises. That term is still in use, especially historically.

IN North America, a winter weather change that might be associated with large amplitude Rossby waves is:_________,a. a jet stream that brings alternating warm and cold periodsb. the California Current and the Gulf Stream change directionsc. a jet stream that causes smaller temperature variations throughout the winterd. warm winter conditions everywhere from California to New york
Answer:
a jet stream that brings alternating warm and cold periods
Explanation:
Jet streams are known as a composition of powerful wind that normally moves from west to east all over the world.
According to various research, it is considered strongest in winter, specifically showing a strong effect on weather in North America.
A jet stream at a normal pace is associated with normal cold and occasional warms, but at a strong pace, it usually creates heavy cold moving and warmth from north to south and vice versa. This is known as Rossby waves.
Hence, in North America, a winter weather change that might be associated with large amplitude Rossby waves is " a jet stream that brings alternating warm and cold period"

The Earth is heated by light from the Moon.
True
False
Answer:
The moon is not very reflective so the earth only receives a very small amount of "light" reflected that was incident on the moon. Some of this reflected light may be infra-red (heat), but even if it is not some of the visible light reflected will be absorbed by the what it lights up on the earth.
