Why does earth have a great physical variations. Mentioned any three causes.​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Explanation:

The processes used by these actions are known as Weathering and Erosion.

Rainfall (water from the cloud) falls carrying out two major actions, firstly, it dissolves chemicals in the atmosphere and this solution causes chemical reactions on the various surfaces it falls on thereby weakening those surfaces through this action and secondly, by its impact on it wears off the surface. This second action becomes more vivid when you study the impact of a drop of water on a sandy surface. The impact dislodges the soils particles from others.

When there is significant amount of rainfall it leads to runoff (water running on the surface) and this runoff has enough force to move loose soil and rick particles to be deposited at a new location. The movement of these particles causes wear and tear on the surface on which they are moved and over time a new landscape evolves.

Water in the form of ice also causes significant landform changes especially in the temperate regions. This occurs through a process called ice or frost wedging. This essentially means water lodging in cracks and crags of rock get frozen and since frozen water expands it forces the crack to become wider and often times dislodging part of the rock surface.

Which of the following pieces of information would likely be found on an economic activity map?distribution of mineral deposits
land elevations
annual precipitation
climate zones

Answers

An economic activity map is type of map that illustrates various economic activities.This map show the world's "economic center of gravity" .

Distribution of mineral deposits is the information that would likely be found on an economic activity map. Mineral deposits are economic resources and this information can be found on the economic activity map. All other options are not connected with economy.

Distribution of mineral deposits would be the answer since 'economy' deals with deposits as the rest of the answers deal with weathering and they don't include an economics. 

The top of a desk would be a representation of:

Answers

Answer:

A plane

Explanation:

  • The desk is usually a flat and featureless lane surface that has no other variation and remains flat and without slopes and is thus a representation of a table mountain or a plateau-like structure in the geographic terms.
