Answer: B.
The Moon's Mantle is too cold to move easily, and has no convection and no active tectonic plate motions, due to the Moon's smaller size and colder temperature than the Earth.
Answer:
The characteristic of plate tectonics is only true about the Earth and not the Moon.
Explanation:
The Moon is way too smaller than the Earth and has a comparatively cooler mantle. The size of the Moon limits the possibility of the existence of tectonic plates. Moreover, a cooler mantle doesn't favour the generation of convection currents that are responsible for the tectonic activities. The moonquakes (like that of earthquakes on Earth) are believed to be caused by the Earth's gravitational influence over the moon and the tidal activities on Earth, not by tectonic activities.Which solids can have vertical cross sections that are circles? Check all that apply. cones prisms cylinders pyramids spheres
Cones, cylinders and spheres can have vertical cross-sections that are circles.
Of the geometric shapes listed, cones, cylinders, and spheres can all produce circular vertical cross sections. This is due to their symmetrical nature and specific geometric structure.
Explanation:In the field of Mathematics, when a solid is cut by a plane perpendicular to its axis of symmetry, the cross section can form a circle. This is seen in the following geometrical solids: cones, cylinders, and spheres.
With cones, a vertical cut will yield a circular cross section. Both cylinders and spheres will also produce a circular cross section when vertically cut. The key to identifying these solids is their symmetrical nature and their ability to produce circular cross sections.
Therefore, among the solids you mentioned, prisms and pyramids don't have vertical cross sections that are circles. These shapes, due to their geometric structure, will not yield circular cross sections when cut vertically.

_______ you would expect volcanoes that are sometimes
Explosive and with andesitic magma/ lava with silica content of about 60% .
a) rift zones
b) oceanic hotspots
c) subduction boundaries
d) continental hot spots
Answer:
c) subduction boundaries
Explanation:
The subduction boundaries, also known as convergent boundaries, are the ones that most commonly give rise to intermediate (andesitic) volcanoes. These volcanoes are know by the term strato volcanoes. The magma from these volcanoes has a relatively high silica content, making it highly viscous. That also means that the magma manages to trap the gasses in it, thus increasing the gas content in it. This results in very explosive and effusive eruptions, because as the magma moves toward the surface, the pressure and temperature significantly change, causing the trapped gasses to explode. This type of magma comes as lava flow, but because it is highly viscous, it only manages to come out on a very small area around its source.
Which of the following is/are responsible for giving a galaxy its particular shape?
A. Dark matter
B. Supermassive black holes
C. Dust and gas
D. Cosmic microwave background radiation
Answer:
The "dark matter" is responsible for giving a "galaxy its particular shape".
Explanation:
In a galaxy, it is mainly the dark matter that holds the galaxy together. A galaxy that is in motion exerts centrifugal force on the planets, stars and other material. This force tends the planets and stars to move away from the "center of the galaxy". On the other hand, the dark matter deploys gravitational force on the material present in the galaxy which holds it in its place.Answer:

Explanation:
A mudflow that can result from a ____.
a) pyroclastic flow
b) landslide
c) pillow lava
d) lahar
Answer:
d) lahar
Explanation:
The mudflows occur mostly because because of enormous amounts of rainfall, and occasionally they occur near volcanoes. The lahar represents a violent type of mudflow. It is composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, water and rocky debris. The material flows down from a volcano, usually along a river valley. This type of mudflow is extremely dangerous, and it manages to cause a lot of damage as there's hardly anything that can stop it or resist its force.

The volcanoes of many Hawaiian island are extinct because
a) the subduction processes that formed the volcanoes have ceased.
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
c) the volcanoes are now below sea level.
d) the hot spot that formed them has moved.
Answer:
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
Explanation:
The Hawaiian islands all have volcanic origin. Some are not active, while some still are. All of these islands have been active volcanoes at one point of time, and they have been created by a hot spot that lies beneath the Pacific plate. The hot spot has such a power that it actually manages to break through the central part of the plate where its crust is the strongest and densest. As the magma manages to come out above the water, it manages to create volcanic islands. The Pacific plate though is moving, it is not static, so it drags the volcanic islands away from the hot spot, causing their extinguishing. As those islands are moved away, the hot spot creates new volcanic islands, and the process constantly continuous, resulting in a volcanic island chain.

Choose the correct association for: dense bushes
rain forest or jungle
savanna
Answer:
Dense Bushes would be found in the jungle.
Answer:
The correct association for dense bushes would be Savanna.
Explanation:
The physical setting of Savanna favors the growth of shrubs in abundance. The trees in Savanna are placed on wide distances allowing the sunlight to reach the ground. This allows and favors the growth of herbaceous layers of grasses and smaller plants like woody bushes. In a rainforest, the trees are closely placed and in most instances don't allow the sunlight to penetrate through their dense canopies.I'm struggling on this and I need help

Think about the steps that have to happen before mining can begin. Which of the following steps do you think comes before the mining process starts. Select all that apply.
A Trees must be cut down to clear land.
B Roads must be built to get access to the area.
C Minerals need to be sold for profit.
D Trees need to be replanted to reclaim the land.
Answer:
A, B, and D are the correct answers.
Explanation:
Trees must be cut down to make space available for the machinery required to excavate and extract minerals from the earth, and if the trees were not cut away, this process would be difficult in the limited space.
Roads and infrastructure must also be provided to that area so that road links are available, in order for the extracted minerals to be transported to processing zones or industries or the markets so that they can be sold.
D is also a valid answer as, in order for this to be a sustainable process, we must replant trees in another area so that there is no shortage of trees and so that land is reclaimed. Trees must also be planted in the area so that fresh air is provided to the miners who work inside the mines when they come out, and not polluted air. This also reduces the risk of various lung diseases affecting the miners such as Black Lung.
Answer: A and B are correct
Explanation: You need a clear way to get to this specific area and a clear piece of land to even start mining . Also, the space needs to be cleared for machinery and roads have to be able to lead to this location for the mining.
Which statement about the focus of an earthquake is true?
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
b) Along a divergent boundary, an earthquake's focus can be as much as 5000 kilometers beneath
Earth's surface.
c) Energy only travels upward from an earthquake's focus.
d) The focus is the point above the epicenter.
Answer:
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
Explanation:
The earthquakes occur as a result of the adjustments that happen deep below the surface, where the crust cracks under the enormous pressure, and the gaps opened up from it are filled with other rocks. When that happens, the amount of energy that is released is enormous, casing strong vibrations that manage to reach the surface as well as cause a lot of damage. The place where the earthquake appears is called focus of the earthquake, and it is located deep below the surface. The place above it in a vertical straight line on the surface is called the epicenter. The vibrations spread around in concentric circles, being most intense near the place of origin, and weakening as they move further.

Under natural conditions, oceans are _____.
self-cleaning systems
ideal waste-dumping grounds
of no use to humans
most damaged by air pollution
I believe the answer is that under natural conditions oceans are self-cleaning systems.
Answer:
Under natural conditions, oceans are self-cleaning systems.
Explanation:
The oceans usually do not house any waste, unwanted material in themselves. The ocean waves either dispose off the waste material back on the shores, or the saline ocean water decays the degradable material. The marine organisms are also majorly responsible for keeping the oceans clean. These animals eat up edible waste and control pollution in the oceans. The lavas erupting at the bottoms of the oceans burn up the nearby non-biodegradable material. Thus, in natural conditions, oceans are self-cleaning systems.If you don't need to look at a map to tell you where to go, then you probably have a

what could be the effects of polluting the water in a small mountain stream
Answer: Water pollution can have disastrous effects on the environment.
Explanation:
Pollution in the water can reach a point where there isn't enough oxygen in the water for the fish to breathe. The fish can suffocate and not have enough air.Pollution affects the entire food chain. Small fishes absorb pollutants, such as chemicals, into their bodies. Bigger fishes eat the smaller fishes and get the pollutants as well. Birds or other animals may eat the bigger fishes and be harmed by the pollutants. One example of this was the use of the insecticide (bug killer) DDT, which is when birds of prey ate fishes that were infected with it, they would lay eggs with thin shells. The population of birds of prey began to drop until DDT was banished. Sewage causes major problems in rivers. Bacteria in the water will use oxygen to break down the sewage. If there is too much sewage, the bacteria could use up oxygen until there won't be enough left for the fish. Water pollution from major events like acid rain or oil spills can completely destroy marine habitats.One of the most important commodities for life on planet Earth is clean water. For over 1 billion people on the planet, clean water is nearly impossible to get. Dirty, polluted water can make them sick enough to die.The ecology might suffer greatly as a result of water contamination could be the effects of polluting the water in a small mountain stream.
What is the concept of the excerpt?Water pollution can get so bad that the fish can't breathe since there isn't enough oxygen in the water. Lack of air can cause the fish to suffocate. All food chains are impacted by pollution. Pollutants like chemicals are absorbed by little fish and end up in their systems.
Smaller fish are eaten by larger fish, who also consume the contaminants. The larger fish may be consumed by birds or other animals, who may then be affected by the contaminants.
One instance of this was the usage of the insecticide DDT, which caused birds of prey to produce eggs with fragile shells after consuming fish that were infected with it. Up until DDT was banned, the number of raptor birds started to decline.
Thus, The ecology might suffer greatly as a result of water contamination.
