How does the size and shape of particles affect the attraction between them?
As the sediment moves, its characteristics change as it is Physically broken down or chemicallyaltered
Why the phosphorus cycle occurs more slowly than both the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle?
Both carbon and nitrogen are found in the air as gases and are readily absorbed by the body. Unlike them, phosphorus is not in the air as a gas but rather moves slowly from deposits on land and sediments, to living organisms, and then back into the soil and water sediment.
What concentration gradient moves when a low concentration moves from an area of a higher concentration?
The concentration gradient is controlled by Diffusion. This same movement in reverse is known as Osmosis.
How is osmosis a special kind of diffusion?
Osmosis is the diffusion of water only. Osmosis occurs when water moves across a membrane in order to create an equilibrium.
How is the movement of acetylferrocene during the addition of hexane to the column?
The acetylferrocene barely moves because it is attracted to more polar substances and hexane is a less polar substance.
What occurs when a mass of rock or sediment moves downhill leaving a curved scar?
RUNOFF
Any one of several processes by which gravity moves sediment downhill?
Mass Movement.
What form of mass movement occurs when a pasty mix of water and sediments moves downhill?
"mud slide"
Do landslides create sorted deposits when sediment moves downhill in a jumbeled mass?
no
Includes several processes caused by gravity that moves sediment downhill?
Erosion.
What moves sediment from place to place?
Erosion moves sediment from one place to another
Its how sediment moves?
Erosion
What moves sediment?
erosion
Is slump a glacier?
No. A glaciers is a slowly flowing mass of ice. A slump is a form of mass wasting in which a mass of rock or sediment breaks loose from a slope and moves relatively slowly downhill as a coherent mass.
What types of joint movement occurs when a muscle moves a body part around its axis?
rotation
What is the type of mass movement by which a mixture of water rock and soil moves rapidly downhill?
air and soil if you havy any comment find me at hkedash@yahoo.com
What type of joint movement occurs when a muscle moves a body part around its own axis?
rotation
