A geologist studies rocks. Which of Earth's spheres would a geologist be most interested in? atmosphere biosphere hydrosphere lithosphere

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Lithosphere

Explanation:

lithosphere is the only sphere that contains rock and that is the solid layer of Earth. Hydrosphere is from water. the biosphere is a portion of Earth in which living things live.T atmosphere is the envelope of gases surrounding the earth or another planet.

So the only option that make sense is lithosphere since it actually has rock in it and none of the others can possibly be studied for rocks.

If an earthquake measures 1.5 on the Richter Scale, what is the intensity of this earthquake, relative to a 0-level earthquake?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

A 1.5 earthquake on the Richter scale is 15 times stronger than a level 0 earthquake. This is because the Richter scale is a logarithmic scale making a number on the scale symbolize an intensity 10 times greater than the previous number on the scale.

An earthquake measuring 1.5 on the Richter scale has tremors that are captured only by seismographs.

Using your knowledge of the cross-cutting nature of contact metamorphism, how could you tell whether the basalt was a lava flow or a sill?

Answers

Answer:

You can tell through the nature of crystal characteristics of lava flows and sill and the cooling nature of both.

Explanation:

Lava flows cool more rapidly and are crystal in nature. Sills are formed when there is a slow cooling between the rock layers and becomes intrusive.

Basalt could be lava flow or sill when these aforementioned characteristics are noticed. Furthermore, sill can be horizontal or gentle intrusive sheet in between rock formations.

The image shows a water feature.




Which term describes feature A?


spring

geyser

water table

artesian well

Answers

Answer:

geyser

Explanation:

The water feature shown by the image is a geyser.

Geyser are natural feature that ejects a column of hot water, steam or vapor into the atmosphere.

Geysers are usually formed in areas of active volcanic and tectonic activities. When surface water comes in contact with a very hot body in formations, they become pressurized and rises up. They then become forcefully ejected through rock cavities and joints. This forced ejection leads to a head of water rising above the surrounding area.

Describe each type of mountain. Include the type of boundary where they are likely
formed and characteristics of each.
* Folded Mountains
* Fault-block Mountains

Answers

Explanation:

Folded Mountain

folded mountains are created at convergent plate boundaries. folded mountains are created through a process called orogeny ( where two or more of earth's tectonic plates are pushed together). the event takes millions of years. is the most common type of mountain in the world. examples are the Alps, the Andes, and the Himalayas.

Fault-block mountains

fault block mountains occur along side divergent boundaries where to plates pull apart. They are formed by the movement of large crustal blocks along faults formed when tensional forces pull apart the crust. examples are the Sierra Nevada. fault block mountains are rare.

(I hope this helps! the information is accurate because most of it came from National Geographic! The fault block mountains were harder to find information on.)

In short summary describe how glacial budget is related to glacial retreat.

Answers

Answer and explanation:

The glacial budget describes how ice accumulates and melts on a glacier, which ultimately determines whether or not a glacier advances or retreats. The balance of the accumulating ice is weighed against the melting ice, and whichever is greater determines whether the glacier will advance or retreat. In the zone of accumulation, the rate of annual snowfall is greater than the rate of melting. In other words, not all of the snow that falls each winter melts during the following summer, and the ice surface is always covered with snow. On the other hand, in the zone of melting or ablation more ice melts then accumulates as snow during the year. The equilibrium line marks the boundary between the two zones of accumulation and ablation. Below the equilibrium line, in the zone of melting, bare ice is exposed because the last winter’s snow had all melted; above that line, the ice is still mostly covered with snow from last winter. The position of the equilibrium line changes from year to year as a function of the balance between snow accumulation in the winter and snowmelt during the summer. More winter snow and less summer melting obviously favors the advance of the equilibrium line and of the glacier’s leading-edge (or terminus). Though, of these two variables, it is the summer melt that matters most to a glacier’s budget. Cool summers promote glacial advance and warm summers promote glacial retreat.

A scientist observes hot water erupting from a vent in the Earth.



What most likely caused the water to rise and erupt from the vent?

The vent was lower than the water table.
A well was drilled into a pressurized aquifer.
A well with a mechanical pump was installed.
The water was heated by magma or hot rocks.

Answers

Answer:

The water was heated by magma or hot rocks.

Explanation:

There are many places in the world where there are hot springs or geyzers. One thing that can be noticed about their distribution though is that they are very close to plate boundaries or close to hot spots. The reason for such a distribution is that volcanic activity is what causes their existence.

When there is groundwater near a volcano, there is a high chance that it will be hot and that in some cases it will be spectacularly propelled in the air. This happens because the magma directly heats up the water, or it heats up the rocks which heat up the water, so the water gains on temperature, lot of pressure builds up and comes out on the surface as hot water. Also, warm springs occur in palces where there aren't active volcanoes but there were some in the past, but because there is still higher temperature in the crust, they have higher temperatures.

The water was heated by magma or hot rocks. Option D.
