What type of volcano will most likely form when intermittent eruptions of different intensities take place over a long period of time and layers of ash and lava pile up?

Cinder volcano
Composite volcano
Cone volcano
Shield volcano

Answers

Answer:

Composite volcano

Explanation:

Composite volcanoes or stratovolcanoes. They are considered to be the most violent type of volcano and they are formed by layers of ash, lava, and stone that piles up during a long period of time. They don't only blow out from the top of the cone but can also blow out from the sides because of a system of underground conduits. They are very large and can rise to 8000 feet.

The proper answer should be composite volcano.

y=x^2 how to solve it

PLZ HELP ASAP 25 POINTS. If people keep using coal in the same way, scientists say there may be enough coal reserves to last 200 to 300 years. Does your graph show trends that match what scientists say? What kinds of factors might cause them not to match?

Answers

It’s often claimed that we have enough coal to last hundreds of years. But if we step up production to fill the gap left through depleting our oil and gas reserves, the coal deposits we know about will run out in 2088. And let’s not even think of the carbon dioxide emissions from burning all that coal.

A. destruction of the coral reefs for shipping lanes and shrimp farming
B.elimination of coastal mangroves for housing
C. elimination of coastal sand dunes
D. non of the above

Answers

Hello! Your correct answer is,

D) none of the above

Why? Because all of the above are human activities that can and have increased tsunami destruction.
Hope I helped, tell me if I'm wrong

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Tsunamis are usually defined as a natural disaster forming a series of waves that are generated in the ocean water body due to the eruption of a volcano, earthquake or occurrence of an underwater landslide. These often form large waves depending upon the intensity of the ground shaking. It affects the coastal areas very adversely, thereby causes a lot of damages to lives and properties.

Human activities have enhanced the effect of tsunamis. The coastal areas are affected by the human activities such as cutting down of mangrove trees and other vegetation in order to construct houses, sands are often extracted from the coastal areas which are used for the construction purpose. In addition to this, the coral reef are also affected due to the leakage of oil and other petroleum products that are often carried from one place to another in cargoes in shipping lanes.

All the above-given options are caused by humans that increased the tsunami destruction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Read the article titled "Greening the Globe." According to the section titled “The Contention,” the debate over climate change has two basic camps of thought. Identify these two camps and their beliefs. Give examples of who supports each one and explain what evidence they use to support their arguments. Based on these arguments, which way of thinking do you agree with and why? (Site 1)

                 

Answers

Identify these two camps and their beliefs.

The two camps are the people who believe that climate change - and in particular the global warming - is a human-made change in the environment and we should do something to address it, while the other side is the people who believe that climate change is a natural phenomenon and so there is nothing we can do about it.

Give examples of who supports each one.

People who support the idea that climate change is man-made are nearly all scientists that have experience in the field of climate and environment, and other people who support the evidence provided by those scientists. 
People who support the idea that climate change is a natural phenomenon are politicians, people who work in the industries that are accused of having fueled the change in the environment, and usually sporadic scientists who work for people who have interest in negating the evidence of climate change.

Explain what evidence they use to support their arguments.

People who support the idea that climate change is man-made use some evidence provided by scientific studies: the CO2 concentration over the years that is constantly increasing, due to the fact we burn more CO2 than before, the rise of sea temperature and acidity, the extreme and unprecedented weather patterns, the loss of ice at the poles.
People who support the idea that climate change is a natural phenomenon uses as evidence the idea that climate constantly changed over the course of the history of Earth, so there are no proofs that this change is man-made or even the idea that since some winters are colder than the previous years, this is a proof of the fact that climate change is not real or it is not man-made. 

Which way of thinking do you agree with?

After reading the article, and looking a bit around the Internet, I agree with the scientists that support the idea that climate change is man-made. The pieces of evidence are enough, and the consensus over this topic is more than 95%, so in my opinion, the climate is changing because of our behaviour.  

why?

Because of the pieces of evidence that are a lot, and because once you understand how the climate works, and how every action we made has an effect on the climate, the idea that the climate is changing because of us represents only the next step. Because even if this could be only a myth, what could be the consequences of acting on climate change? A better environment. On the other side, even if the global warming is real, we are on a dangerous track that could lead to serious consequences for all of us.

During the second Red Scare public and government suspicious of Communism led to the blacklisting of people in various industries.

Answer:

During the second 'Red Scare', 'public' and 'government suspicious of Communism' led to the "blacklisting of many people in the entertainment industry".

Explanation:

The Second Red scare began right after the second world war as the result of the governments ill and spurious realizations about the spread of communism within US. The US government and the non-communist citizens were afraid that the communists would get hold of their secret information and would strike war against the US which would finally result in the US becoming a 'communist country'.

Answers

Of these choices i'd say that the third option or "domestic fuels are always cheaper to acquire and renewable". I hope this helps :)

Answer:

Domestic fuels are always cheaper to acquire and renewable

Explanation:

Domestic fuels are fuels found and are readily available locally and does not require importation from another location especially a different country. both Domestic fuels and international fuel sources are require combustion and will run out at the same rate depending on their compositions.

But Domestic fuels are always cheaper to acquire and renew when compared to international fuel sources because domestic fuel sources don't require import tariffs before they can be consumed in the country and are easily renewable since their sources are local.

Please describe relationship between speed and moisture and how they influence the various types of mass wasting

Answers

Mass wasting is the downward movement of material on a slope under the influence of gravity. This material is usually lubricated by water from rainfall or snowmelt. Moisture can influence the speed of mass movements. The more water that is involved, usually, the faster the movement. Minimal water moving through a soil profile overtime may cause soil creep, where movement can be a few centimetres a year. A short period of heavy rainfall impacting the same region might lead to a landslide, which is significantly faster than soil creep. An extensive preiod of torrential rain can lead to mudflow which is many times faster than a landslide. 

Which conquering force had the greatest impact on north Africa
1.The British Empire
2. The Muslim empire
3. The ottoman empire
4. The Roman empire

Answers

Answer:

the British Empire

Explanation:

Final answer:

The Muslim empire, especially under the Umayyad Caliphate, had the most significant and lasting impact on North Africa through its widespread introduction of Islam, which transformed the region's religion, culture, and governance.

Explanation:

Among the conquering forces mentioned, the Muslim empire had the greatest impact on North Africa. Following Muhammad's death, Arab military campaigns successfully spread Islam across the region, a mission extensively carried by the Umayyad Caliphate during the 7th and 8th centuries. The entirety of North Africa fell under Muslim control after a series of conquests, with the Umayyads eventually reaching the Atlantic by 700 CE. This vast Islamic expansion introduced significant changes in religion, culture, and governance across North Africa, aspects that have had a lasting influence to this day.

Other empires like the Roman, Ottoman, and the British had their periods of influence in North Africa, but it was the arrival and spread of Islam that fundamentally transformed the region's identity. The Romans built impressive infrastructure and integrated the region into their economic and cultural system, while the Ottoman empire at its zenith controlled vast territories, including parts of North Africa. However, none of these empires' impacts were as profound and enduring as the changes brought by the Islamic conquests.
