B. Perito Moreno is the only glacier that is currently melting exactly as fast as it is growing.
C. Mountains are formed when the crust is uplifted, for example went to continental plates collide.
D. Evaporation remove salt from seawater, creating freshwater clouds.
Answer: D
Explanation: quiz lol
Evaporation remove salt from seawater, creating freshwater clouds is an effect of hydrosphere on human life. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
What is hydrosphere?The hydrosphere is defined as the total mass of water found on, beneath, and above the surface of a planet, minor planet, or natural satellite. Although the Earth's hydrosphere has been around for approximately 4 billion years, it is still changing shape. This is caused by seafloor spreading and continental drift, which causes land and ocean to reorganise.
The hydrosphere is the sum of all water on Earth and the water cycle that circulates it. Humans get their water from the hydrosphere. Plants and animals can grow and produce food and resources for humans to use when precipitation causes runoff.
Therefore, evaporation remove salt from seawater, creating freshwater clouds.

Explanation:
The best statement the describes why soil is a renewable resource is that organic matter constantly replaces itself and provides nutrients for plants.
A renewable resource is one that when used, they can easily be replenished. Soil organic matter is a very important component which ensures a soil is made fertile. The organic matter is adequate replenished as it depletes. This provides a consistent nutrient source in the soil.Answer:

Answer:
It should have wind energy sources
It can also have solar energy sources
Explanation:
Wind energy sources makes use high energy winds emanating from the coastal areas to propel windmills which will help to generate energy that can be used at home and for certain types of industrial activities.
A coastal area like Karachi can also explore solar energy sources as an alternative energy source which makes use of solar radiation to generate electricity through the use of solar panels and inverters etc

what are three different reasons oil sands are positive?
Answer: Here's your answer!!
1)The responsible development of oil sands is a key driver of Alberta's and Canada's economy. It creates jobs and tax revenue for the government which supports the social programs and capital infrastructure projects we rely on.
2)Crude oil derived from the oil sands is refined into products, such as gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel, which keep us warm, power our industries, and help us move about the country and the world (not to mention cooking those turkeys). With conventional oil supply declining, the need for oil sands is increasing.
3)A strong oil sands sector drives a strong national economy by attracting capital, creating jobs, and supporting public services. ... Local companies in every province supply goods and services to the oil sands—creating jobs, growth and economic opportunity in local communities!

Look at where the state of Jalisco is on this plate boundary map. What do you notice about Jalisco and the plate boundaries near it? Can you make any predictions based on what you see?
Answer:
The Jalisco block plate is moving.
Explanation:
The Jalisco block is situated in the Western Mexican state edging the Pacific ocean. It is one of the most famous destination place in Mexico among the tourists all over the world.
It is also famous among the geologist and the scientist as this place is moving as the Baja island of Mexico. The tectonic plates are shifting in the Jalisco block. Geologist are experimenting to understand the cause of the shifting of this plate in the Jalisco plane. Scientist believes that the formation of the Baja island has formed in the similar way due to divergent movement of the plates.
They are also few earthquake prone areas near Jalsico plate boundary due to the plate movements.

Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B
C
D
The answer is D.
The correct answer is D. The land has subsided about 30 feets in the last 100 years, and the rate is increasing.
Explanation
Mexico City is the capital of Mexico, a country in North America. This country during its pre-Hispanic stage was inhabited by civilizations such as the Mayas and the Aztecs who built great empires; the Aztecs built their main city Tenochtitlan on Lake Texcoco, later with the arrival of the Spanish this city was occupied by the colonizers who built houses and buildings in this area filling sectors of this immense lake. Over time, this lake seems to have been covered forming underground water sources such as aquifers, at the same time the city evolved and its infrastructure increased radically. Today this city is suffering from subsidence that has caused the buildings and the surface in general, to have sunk at least thirty feet during the last hundred years, because when Mexico City was built on Lake Texcoco, they were Aquifers and groundwater sources are used to supply water to the city, so they leave empty spaces in the sub-layers of the ground causing buildings and everything on the surface to sink. Additionally, during the last ten years, this pattern has increased making that the surface sink faster than before. According to the above, the correct answer is D. The land has subsided about 30 feet in the last 100 years, and the rate is increasing.

What’s another species whose individuals could be easily identified using software like Wildbook or LemurFaceID? please hurry asap
Answer: lol this might be wrong sorry girl
Explanation:
Long-term research of known individuals is critical for understanding the demographic and evolutionary processes that influence natural populations. Current methods for individual identification of many animals include capture and tagging techniques and/or researcher knowledge of natural variation in individual phenotypes. These methods can be costly, time-consuming, and may be impractical for larger-scale, population-level studies. Accordingly, for many animal lineages, long-term research projects are often limited to only a few taxa. Lemurs, a mammalian lineage endemic to Madagascar, are no exception. Long-term data needed to address evolutionary questions are lacking for many species. This is, at least in part, due to difficulties collecting consistent data on known individuals over long periods of time. Here, we present a new method for individual identification of lemurs (LemurFaceID). LemurFaceID is a computer-assisted facial recognition system that can be used to identify individual lemurs based on photographs.
Results
LemurFaceID was developed using patch-wise Multiscale Local Binary Pattern features and modified facial image normalization techniques to reduce the effects of facial hair and variation in ambient lighting on identification. We trained and tested our system using images from wild red-bellied lemurs (Eulemur rubriventer) collected in Ranomafana National Park, Madagascar. Across 100 trials, with different partitions of training and test sets, we demonstrate that the LemurFaceID can achieve 98.7% ± 1.81% accuracy (using 2-query image fusion) in correctly identifying individual lemurs.
Conclusions
Our results suggest that human facial recognition techniques can be modified for identification of individual lemurs based on variation in facial patterns. LemurFaceID was able to identify individual lemurs based on photographs of wild individuals with a relatively high degree of accuracy. This technology would remove many limitations of traditional methods for individual identification. Once optimized, our system can facilitate long-term research of known individuals by providing a rapid, cost-effective, and accurate method for individual identification.

Would you expect to find dinosaur fossils in undisturbed rocks that are above the iridium
layer? Explain your answer.
Answer:
All dinosaur fossils found by archeologists have been found a few centimeters below the iridium layer. So, the possibility of finding dinosaur fossils above the iridium layer is very slim.
Explanation:
Over 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the earth but were canceled out as a result of an extraterrestrial impact on the earth's crust. Research proved that an asteroid brought the end of dinosaurs as the element iridium was found in the earth (since iridium is abundant in asteroids and not the earth's crust).
Records of fossils found have been between 13 to 60 centimeters below the iridium or the K-T boundary as it is called.
