Answer:
turns into ice
Explanation:
Deserts are found around the globe, generally around a belt of ______degrees north and south latitude where global wind patterns carry down dry air from the upper atmosphere.
options:
0
10
30
50
Answer:
its 30 i used a world globe recorder and they were in the mix of 30
Explanation:
The deserts are found all around the world and generate located at the mid-latitude belt of 30 degrees due to the wind patterns and closeness of the equator. Thus option C is correct.
What are deserted?The deserts are placed which has an inhospitable environment for the life firms and cover 1/5 th of the earth's land surface.
They are arid and semi and may be hot or cold and get less than 10 inches of rainfall hence are called drylands. As on the basis of the wind patterns and closeness of the tropical region the deserts lie around 30 degrees of latitude.

How does the appearance of each phase of the moon relate to the moon’s
position relative to Earth and the sun?
Answer:
Before we describe the phases of the Moon, let's describe what they're not. Some people mistakenly believe the phases come from Earth's shadow cast on the Moon. Others think that the Moon changes shape due to clouds. These are common misconceptions, but they're not true. Instead, the Moon's phase depends only on its position relative to Earth and the Sun.
The Moon doesn't make its own light, it just reflects the Sun's light as all the planets do. The Sun always illuminates one half of the Moon. Since the Moon is tidally locked, we always see the same side from Earth, but there's no permanent "dark side of the Moon." The Sun lights up different sides of the Moon as it orbits around Earth – it's the fraction of the Moon from which we see reflected sunlight that determines the lunar phase.
Phases of the MoonWe see the Moon go through a changing cycle of phases each month due to its orbital motion around Earth and the changing geometry with which we view it.

MOON PHASES
The new Moon occurs when the Moon, Earth, and Sun all lie along approximately the same line. Since the Sun is behind the Moon from Earth's perspective, the side of the Moon that faces Earth is dark.
At full Moon, the three bodies also lie approximately in a line, but this time, the Moon is on the opposite side of Earth, so the Sun illuminates the whole side facing us.
At first quarter and last quarter, the Moon lies perpendicular to a line between Earth and the Sun. We see exactly half of the Moon illuminated by the Sun — the other half lies in shadow. The "quarter" used to name these phases refers to the respective fraction of an orbit that the Moon has completed since new Moon.
The illuminated part of the Moon gradually transitions between these phases. To remember the in-between phases you'll need to understand these terms: crescent, gibbous, waxing, and waning. Crescent refers to phases where the Moon is less than half-illuminated, while gibbous means more than half is illuminated. Waxing means “growing” or expanding in illumination, and waning means “shrinking” or decreasing in illumination.
After new Moon, a slice of reflected sunlight becomes visible as a waxing crescent. The lunar crescent grows until first-quarter Moon. As the sunlit portion of the Moon continues to increase to more than half of the Moon's face, the Moon turns waxing gibbous. Then, after the full Moon the sunlit fraction begins to decrease again (though it still takes up more than half the face of the Moon) to make a waning gibbous and then a third-quarter Moon. The slice of sunlight continues to decrease until the moon is a waning crescent and then a new Moon. The whole cycle (from new Moon to new Moon) takes about 29.5 days.
If you have a hard time remembering which way the moon phases go, just think: “white on right, getting bright!”
THE PING PONG PERSPECTIVE
Holding a white ball at arm’s length in the direction of the Moon shows how lunar phases depend on where the Moon is in the sky with respect to the Sun. S&T: J. Kelly BeattyHolding a white ball at arm's length in the direction of the Moon shows how lunar phases depend on where the Moon is in the sky with respect to the Sun. S&T: J. Kelly Beatty
The Moon's phases are actually related to orbital motion, and there's a simple and fun observation that shows how they're connected. All you'll need is a Ping-Pong ball to simulate the Moon—actually, any small, white sphere would work. Then head outside about an hour before sunset, or around the time of a first-quarter Moon. Find the Moon in the southern part of the sky, then hold the ball up at arm's length right beside it.
You'll see that the ball shows exactly the same phase as the Moon. The Sun illuminates both the ball and the Moon from the same direction, and you see them as partly sunlit and partly in shadow, their bright and dark portions mimicking each other perfectly. If the weather stays clear, you can repeat this observation on the next several afternoons. Each day the Moon's orbital motion has carried it farther east, and the sunlit portion of its disk has grown larger. If you hold your ball up near the Moon, you'll see that its “phase” has thickened too.
To sneak a preview of the Moon's appearance in the days to come, simply move the ball farther east. And if you move it all the way over so your arm points low in the eastern sky, the side of the ball that's facing you will be almost completely illuminated — nearly a “Full Ball,” so to speak. And, sure enough, a day or two before full Moon, the Moon hangs low in the eastern sky just before sunset and is almost completely illuminated.
Explanation:
A problem in mathematics is given to three students A, B and C whose chances of solving it are 1/3, 1/4 and 1/5 respectively. Find the probability that i. the problems will be solved? ii. the problems will not be solved?
Answer:
i. 3/5
ii. 2/5
Explanation:
Solving the problem by any of the students A, B and C is an independent event as solution by one does not restrict the other one from solving
However, the problem will be solved if even one of them solves the question
Now Probability of not solving the question by A, B and C are
PA (not solving a problem) - 1-1/3 = 2/3
PB (not solving a problem) - 1-1/4 = 3/4
PC (not solving a problem) - 1-1/5 = 4/5
ii) Probability of not solving - 2/3*3/4*4/5 = 2 *1/5 = 2/5
i) Probability of solving - 1- Probability of not solving
= 1 - 2/5 = 3/5
what is the source of energy or heat in the geosphere? what heats it up?
Answer:
the sun
Explanation:
The sun is the major source of energy for the Earth system. Heat from Earth's interior also supplies energy, but the amount of energy is much smaller. Energy from the sun and from Earth's interior moves through the geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and atmosphere.
Answer:
D: sun
Explanation:
Because the sun is the most powerful source of energy, it is the sun.
How is underground water replenished?
A. Precipitation
B. Streams
C. Rivers
D. All of the above
A ) Precipitation
The groundwater is predominantly replenished by the precipitation, so the amount of precipitation directly influences how much underground water there will be at a certain place.
The water from the precipitation falls on the surface of the Earth, but it doesn't stay there, instead, it is going through it down its layers, so if there's an underground tank formation from underground waters that is close to the surface, part of this water will get into it. The most common replenishing of the groundwater comes at the places that are dominated by limestone. The limestone is interacting with the water very easily, and the water manages to create cracks in it, so it goes straight through it and fills in the space inside it. These are actually the places where most of the springs appear.
