Why does temperature increase with altitude through the stratosphere?
(If two people answer, the first one to answer the question correctly will get brainliest.)

A. The stratosphere is closest to the sun.
B. All layers of the atmosphere increase in temperature with altitude.
C. The air molecules are closer together in the upper stratosphere.
D. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere

Explanation:

Because warm air rises and cool air sinks, the troposphere is unstable. In the stratosphere, temperature increases with altitude. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which protects the planet from the Sun's harmful UV radiation.

Answers

It’s Hass to be C because Sandune’s are

The correct answer is option A) Coastal erosions.

Coastal erosions affect the development of the Florida peninsula. Coastal erosion along the Florida coast is due to rising sea levels, natural disasters like frequent storms and hurricanes, numerous navigational inlets and other constructions, and poor developmental plans.

Why is erosion a problem in Florida?

In addition to increased hurricanes, storms, and sea-level rise, much of the beach erosion is caused by man-made activity such as the construction of jetties and seawalls and poor planning for coastal development along the shoreline.

What is Florida doing to prevent beach erosion?

The department's Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL) Program protects coastal resources from improperly located and designed structures and activities that can destabilize the beach and dune system, cause erosion, expose an upland property to storm damage or interfere with public access.

O It includes the state's highest peaks.
O It includes a series of elevations and depressions.
mark this and ratum​

Answers

Answer:

It includes a series of elevations and depressions.

Explanation:

Ridges are basically small elevations and if you look at them from a flat surface, they might even look like small mountains. In reality they are only 700ft tall.

Valleys on the other hand are plains with not ridges or small mountains.

Therefore a ridge and valley region would consist of a series of elevations due to ridges and depressions due to the plain valleys.  

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The Ridge and Valley region is full of elevations and depressions. I also just had this on a quiz!

Scientists find trilobites during a routine dig. Trilobites were common in the Paleozoic Era (540 to 245 million years ago) and went extinct during the late Permian period (248 million years ago). On another site, the scientists find ammonites. Ammonites lived during the Mesozoic Era (245 to 65 million years ago) and are not found after that period. What can be concluded about the rock layers? Choose all that apply.


A The rock layers must have formed at the same time because they both contain biozones.


B The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed before the one containing the ammonites.


C The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed after the one containing the ammonites.


D The rock layers must have formed at different times because they contain two different biozones.

Answers

Answer:

A and C

Explanation:

The rock layers must have formed at different times because they contain two different biozones. The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed before the one containing the ammonites. The key thing to note here is that the Trilobites only lived from 540 to 248 million years ago. And that the Ammonites were from 245 to 65 million years ago. So there's a 3 million year gap between these 2 different creatures where neither of them existed. So the dig where the trilobites were found has to be at least 3 million years older than the dig where the Ammonites were found. So with that in mind, let's look at the options and see what makes sense.

The rock layers must have formed at the same time because they both contain biozones. * This is nonsense no matter what dates you're speaking of. In effect it claims that all rocks that indicate life were created at the same time. So this is definitely a bad choice.

The rock layers must have formed at different times because they contain two different biozones. * This is technically incorrect since it assumes that all biozones represent an unique period of time which is incorrect. However, since the biozones represented by the presence of Trilobites and Ammonites don't overlap, it is true that these these rock layers were formed at different times. I would have preferred if this option said "non overlapping biozones". But on the balance, I'd consider this option to be true, so it should be selected.

The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed before the one containing the ammonites. * This is definitely true since the last Trilobite died about 3 million years before the first Ammonite lived. So this is a correct choice.

The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed after the one containing the ammonites.

* This is the opposite of the previous option. And since the previous option was true, this option must be false. So this is a bad choice

Answers

the answer is the last one

A republic is different from a direct democracy: In a republic, citizens elect representatives to pass laws and make decisions for them. Thus, option D is the correct option.

The way decisions are made is what distinguishes a republic from a direct democracy. In a direct democracy, decisions are made and legislation is voted on by the citizens themselves. This may entail events or meetings where everyone is given the chance to cast a vote on laws or policies.

On the other hand, under a republic, people choose representatives who act as their voice in government and enact laws. These officials are chosen through elections and given the power to speak for the interests of the people and make decisions in their place.

Thus, option D is the correct option.

Which is the best estimated pressure, represented in units of GPa, of the lower mantle? 110 GPa 220 GPa 305 GPa 360 GPa

Answers

The correct answer is A. 110GPa

Explanation:

Pressure refers to a force applied to a surface or object either by another object or factors such as the atmosphere. This is calculated considering the force applied and the area. Additionally, this factor can be measured using the unit gigapascals (GPa), which is more common in geography and related areas.

In this context, the lower mantle, which is the layer below the upper mantle has a pressure between 24GPa and 130GPa; and this is a high pressure if compared to the pressure in the surface. Thus, the estimated pressure in this zone is 110GPa because this is the only number that is between the range of pressure in this zone, while others show a higher pressure that is not found in this layer.

Answer:110 GPa

In circle C shown below, a tangent has been drawn at point A. If m CBA   28 then explain why the measure of DAB must equal 62.

Answers

Answer:

The solution is shown below

Explanation:

From the image attached:

Line BC and line AC are the radii of the circle, therefore BC = AC.

Since BC = AC, the triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle with m∠CBA = m∠CAB = 28°

Also line ED is a tangent to circle C. From the circle theorems, a tangent to a circle is at right angle to the circle radius at point of contact. Since AC is a radii, ∠EAC = 90°

Therefore:

∠DAB + ∠EAC + m∠CAB = 180° (sum of angles on a straight line)

∠DAB = 180° - ∠EAC - m∠CAB

∠DAB = 180 - 90 - 28 = 62

∠DAB = 62°

What Are the (2) most important climatic factors for the Indian people?​

Answers

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.
