Describe the characteristics of temperature and rainfall in the hot semi-arid climate zone.
[4]
Answer:
Semi-arid climate receives very minimal rainfall that can support large vegetations or forests.
But there are different kinds of semi-arid climates, depending on variables such as temperature, and they give rise to different biomes.

3 reasons for the dry conditions in central Antarctic
Answer:
The driest place on Earth is in Antarctica in an area called the Dry Valleys, which have seen no rain for nearly 2 million years. ... The reason why this region receives no rain is due to Katabatic winds, winds from the mountains that are so heavy with moisture that gravity pulls them down and away from the Valleys.
The driest place on Earth is in Antarctica in an area called the Dry Valleys, which have seen no rain for nearly 2 million years. ... The reason why this region receives no rain is due to Katabatic winds, winds from the mountains that are so heavy with moisture that gravity pulls them down and away from the Valleys.Antarctica’s climate is also very windy and dry. Wind speeds vary across the continent and are discussed in Regional climate variation and weather; but the idea that Antarctica is a kind of desert requires some explanation here. The relative humidity of air at the South Pole is often as low as 0.03%, and the continent is a polar desert. This may at first seem surprising with 99% of its area being covered by ice; and Antarctica certainly doesn’t conform to the image that most people have of a desert. Yet, most of Antarctica is classed as a desert on the basis of its mean annual precipitation. What little precipitation there is mostly falls as snow, averaging less than 50mm a year (water equivalent) across much of the interior. This is in the ‘hyper arid’ category, shared with the Sahara, Namib, Atacama, and other great deserts of the world. The presence of so much ice despite such low precipitation is simply due to the fact that low temperatures cause even less ablation than accumulation (see Tectonic history: into the deep freeze and Ice sheets and glaciation for an account of the build up of the Antarctic Ice Sheet).

what is a fohn effect
Answer:
A föhn, also spelled foehn is a type of dry, warm, down-slope wind that occurs in the lee of a mountain range. It is a rain shadow wind that results from the subsequent adiabatic warming of air that has dropped most of its moisture on windward slopes.

Explanation:
Of the four most abundant gases in our atmosphere, which one shows the greatest variation from place to place at the earth's surface
Answer: Water Vapor
Explanation:
Water Vapor is the third most abundant gas in the atmosphere but shows the greatest variation because in some places it could be so low that it is practically 0% but in other areas it can get up to 4%.
This is because there are areas where it is more conducive for water vapor to exist and places it isn't. For instance, there will be a lot of water vapor in tropical climates where rainfall is abundant as opposed to deserts where temperatures are too high and rainfall too low for rain to come.
List 3 ways wetlands help the abiotic (non-living) environment.
Answer:
Wetlands such as swamps and bayous have lots of plant and animal life, along with many bacteria, protists, and fungi. All of these, of course, are biotic factors. Some abiotic factors include the soil/mud or sand (not including the living organisms inside of it), rocks, sunlight, water, and gases in the air. There's also a number of chemical components in the water and soil, which can include salts, sulfur, nitrates and nitrites, and ammonia, among others.

Use the drop-down menus to complete each equation so the statement about its solution is true. No Solutions 6x – 3x + 4 – 2x = x + One Solution 6x – 3x + 4 – 2x = x + Infinitely Many Solutions 6x – 3x + 4 – 2x = x +
Answer:
No solution
Explanation:
Given
[tex]6x - 3x + 4 - 2x= x[/tex]
Required
The number of solutions
[tex]6x - 3x + 4 - 2x= x[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]6x - 3x - 2x+ 4 = x[/tex]
[tex]x+ 4 = x[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides
[tex]x - x+ 4 = x -x[/tex]
[tex]4 = 0[/tex] --- Not true
This has no solution
Answer:
No solution
6x-3x+4-2x=1x+9
one solution
6x-3x+4-2x=2x+2
infinity many solutions
6x-3+4-2x=1x+4
How does water change the shape of Earth’s surface?
Water changes the shape of Earth in the following ways-
The running water such as rivers and streams causes the disintegration of rocks into smaller pieces. This is called weathering which changes the topographic features.The weathered rock pieces are easily eroded with moving water. The water deposits the rocks in newer places which create new landforms.The property of water to dissolve a large number of substances is majorly responsible for changing the Earth's surface as it helps in the transport of a large number of materials such as soil, rocks, etc. to different places.For example- The North Indian Plains are created due to the erosional and depositional activities of rivers draining that region.
Answer:
sample response
Explanation:
Water shapes Earth’s surface by wearing away soil and rock and through the movement of glaciers. Weathering through the action of water and frost or ice also changes the shape of Earth’s surface.

Answer:
Subduction Zone Volcanism
Most explosive eruptions occur in volcanoes above subduction zones, where one tectonic plate dives beneath the other. Eighty to 120 kilometers below the surface, magma forms when the rocks of the mantle melt just above the subducting plate. The magma rises through the mantle, and erupts to form great composite volcanoes such as Vesuvius. Explosive eruptions have also built arc-shaped island chains such as Indonesia, and continental mountains like the Cascades. In this zone, you will see rocks from all these areas.
Why some volcanoes explode
A volcano’s explosiveness depends on the composition of the magma (molten rock) and how readily gas can escape from it. As magma rises and pressure is released, gas bubbles (mainly of water vapor and carbon dioxide) form and expand rapidly, causing explosions. Magmas with high silica content tend to erupt violently, because they are viscious. They form volcanoes like Krakatau and Tambora in Indonesia, and Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens in Washington State. In contrast, basaltic magma (which forms the volcanoes of Hawaii and other oceanic islands) contains less silica, is more fluid, and does not erupt in gain explosions.

Answer:
there are 3 layers.!!!!
Answer:
The Earth has Three Layers
Inner Core, Outer Core, Mantle, Upper Mantle, and Crust
Explanation:
The earth is made up of three different layers: the crust, the mantle and the core. This is the outside layer of the earth and is made of solid rock, mostly basalt and granite. There are two types of crust; oceanic and continental.
What can be determined about the environment in which this fossil formed?
o
A. It was full of carnivorous organisms that allowed plants to survive and reproduce.
O
B. It experienced a long period of stability that was followed by a mass extinction event
O
C. It was able to support biological diversity, as sunlight and water were both readily available.
OD. It went through a period of rapid climate change, as the leaves on the plant were starting to fall.
Answer:
answer B
Explanation:
fossils form as a reult of different methods. Pressure, absence of decomposers, and sedimentation without signifiacant disturbanses are among the reasons.For these sort of reasons to prevail it should be a hard, adverse climate as of an mass extiction event.
