Answer:

Latitudinal Location and Distance from the Ocean/Sea.

Explanation:

Latitudinal Location because it is the distance from the equator. The farther away from the equator you get, the hotter it gets, and vice versa.

Distance from the ocean/sea because the ocean/sea is a heat reservoir. It stores heat, and lets it out when its cool, therefore making places near the sea have either colder or warmer temperatures depending on the time of year.

The West India Docks and Blackwall Basin, c. 1956.

The West India Docks and Blackwall Basin, c. 1956.

An aerial view across the West India Docks towards Blackwall Basin, the original non-tidal entrance to the docks. To the right of the picture, the entrance lock from Blackwall Reach to the South Dock is clearly visible. In 1926, this dock (formerly the City Canal) was connected to the two northern import and export docks and to the adjacent Millwall Docks. Finally, in the far distance beyond Blackwall Point, lies the Victoria Dock, first of the mighty Royal Docks complex.

The West India Docks in 2001

The docks are now dominated by the Canary Wharf estate which extends over 86 acres of what was formerly the West India Docks. Until the closure of the docks in 1980, hundreds of dockers would have worked there. Now, thousands of office staff are employed on the estate. Although most of the dock area has been filled in, the Blackwall Basin remains, as does the entrance to the old South Dock and much of the dock water itself.

The Royal Group of Docks, c. 1930.

Located in the bend of the river between Bugsby's Reach and Gallions Reach, the Royal Docks group formed the largest area of continuous dock water in the world. A vessel travelling from east to west across these docks would have passed through three miles of water crowded with ships, tugs and lighters. This aerial view of the docks clearly shows the extent of the complex, including the huge entrance locks at Gallions Reach.

The huge expanse of water at the Royal Docks stands empty. The Royals closed in 1981 and work on the £30m airport project began in 1983. The first commercial service lifted off from the STOLport (now known as London City Airport) in 1987. Located just six miles from the City of London and three miles from Canary Wharf, the airport has been a vital factor in the regeneration of Docklands.

Surrey Commercial Docks.

During the 1920s and 1930s, the Surrey Commercial Docks were mainly engaged in the softwood trade and a significant portion of the American trade, particularly wheat and dairy produce. An immense number of lighters operated there, mainly handling timber, the sorting, piling, marking and storage of which was the responsibilty of Port of London Authority staff.

Union-Castle liners in the East India Import Dock, 1902.

Opened in 1806, the docks originally served the East India Company's ships. The docks consisted of parallel import and export docks with a basin and locks connecting to the river. The 31 acres of water at the docks were later used by ships from the Union Castle Line, Ellerman Line, Blue Star Line and Ben Line. In the 1920s, new facilities were built for the handling of frozen meat. The export dock was badly bombed during the Second World War and filled-in. The docks closed in 1967.

The East India Import Dock, 2003.

The East India Import Dock, 2003.

Wildfowl have now replaced steamships on the water. Most of the import dock was filled in when the East India Docks closed in 1967, but a small part of the dock was retained as an attractive water feature. The entrance basin is the only completely intact part of the former East India Docks complex. It has survived relatively unscathed, and has been transformed into a recreational space.

Explain how scientific knowledge is developed when people make observations about the natural world.

Answers

We typically think of observations as having been seen "with our own eyes," but in science, observations can take many forms. Of course, we can make observations directly by seeing, feeling, hearing, and smelling, but we can also extend and refine our basic senses with tools: thermometers, microscopes, telescopes, radar, radiation sensors, X-ray crystallography, mass spectroscopy, etc. And these tools do a better job of observing than we can! Further, humans cannot directly sense many of the phenomena that science investigates (no amount of staring at this computer screen will ever let you see the atoms that make it up or the UV radiation that it emits), and in such cases, we must rely on indirect observations facilitated by tools. Through these tools, we can make many more observations much more precisely than those our basic senses are equipped to handle.

Tools like the Hubble Space Telescope, microscopes and submersibles help us to observe the natural world.

Observations yield what scientists call data. Whether the observation is an experimental result, radiation measurements taken from an orbiting satellite, an infrared recording of a volcanic eruption, or just noticing that a certain bird species always thumps the ground with its foot while foraging — they're all data. Scientists analyze and interpret data in order to figure out how those data inform their hypotheses and theories. Do they support one idea over others, help refute an idea, or suggest an entirely new explanation? Though data may seem complex and be represented by detailed graphs or complex statistical analyses, it's important to remember that, at the most basic level, they are simply observations.
Observations inspire, lend support to, and help refute scientific hypotheses and theories. However, theories and hypotheses (the fundamental structures of scientific knowledge) cannot be directly read off of nature. A falling ball (no matter how detailed our observations of it may be) does not directly tell us how gravity works, and collecting observations of all the different finch species of the Galapagos Islands does not directly tell us how their beaks evolved. Scientific knowledge is built as people come up with hypotheses and theories, repeatedly test them against observations of the natural world, and continue to refine those explanations based on new ideas and observations. Observation is essential to the process of science, but it is only half the picture.

Answer:

Scientific knowledge is developed when people make observations about the natural world. An observation may generate a scientific question, which may lead to a hypothesis. The hypothesis can be tested through experimentation. The results of the experimentation may lead to changes in scientific knowledge.

Which best compares and contrasts how John Newlands and Dmitri Mendeleev organized elements?

O Both Newlands and Mendeleev arranged elements according to their atomic masses, but only Mendeleev used cherr
properties as well
Both Newlands and Mendeleev organized elements into groups, but only Newlands used a table with rows and column
Both Newlands and Mendeleev organized elements into a table with rows and columns, but only Mendeleev named
different groups of elements.

Answers

The correct answer is B. Both Newlands and Mendeleev arranged elements according to their atomic masses, but only Mendeleev used chemical properties as well.

Explanation:

Both John Newlands and Dmitri Mendeleev were relevant chemists, mainly known for designing the period table, which organized chemical elements. In the case of Newlands, he designed his period table around 1865 by organizing the known elements based on the atomic masses of elements (number of protons and neutrons); also, he divided elements into groups.

On the other hand, Mendeleev designed his periodic table around 1869; in this, elements were also arranged by their atomic masses, but Mendeleev considered the properties of each element such as electronegativity, which implied some minor changes in order, as well as leaving some spaces for elements that had not been discovered, but that Mendelev could predict. Thus, the option that compares the organization in both periodic tables is B.

Answer:

B. Both Newlands and Mendeleev arranged elements according to their atomic masses, but only Mendeleev used chemical properties as well.

Which must be true for metamorphism to occur?
A. The parent rock must be in liquid form.
B. The parent rock must be igneous.
C. The process must take place underground.
D. The grain size must become smaller.

Answers

The parent rock must be in liquid form, must be true for metamorphism to occur. Hence, option A is correct.

What is parent rock?

Parent rock is the fundamental rock that something else was produced from. It is mostly applied in the context of soil formation, where the parent rock typically has a significant impact on the final soil's composition.

Sandstone, shale, and limestone fall within this category. Metamorphic rock is the last type of parent rock. Extreme heat or pressure have resulted in the formation of metamorphic rocks. As a result, igneous or sedimentary rock changes in composition.

Thus, option A is correct.
