What is uniformanitism?
I think you mean 'uniformitarianism'. According to the principle of uniformitarianism, the observable features of the world were produced by processes that are still observable today. For example, mountains were formed, not by a miracle or a catastrophe, but by the ordinary (very slow) geological processes of plate tectonics, which we can observe in the present.
What act on the CNS to suppress or slow bodily processes and reduce overall responsiveness?
Depressants
The idea that rocks form over long periods through the slow geologic processes is called?
Gradualism is built on the ideas that rocks form over long periods through the slow geologic processes. Volcanoes, erosions and sedimentary changes occur in gradualism.
What slow processes cause changes in the earth's surface?
erosion is the most obvious. there are also earthquakes (the movement of tectonic plates) and you may not think of it as slow but volcanoes as well.
What rock most likely formed underground from slow cooling magma?
Igneous
What kinds of landforms are formed by slow processes?
Canyons
Is landforms created by slow-moving glaciersduring the last Ice Age?
Not all landforms were formed by glaciers during the last glaciation but most of those in high latitudes were, including mountainous regions in lower latitudes.
Are landforms created slow or quickly?
Very Very slowly

What is a true statement about how the Earth's surface is changing?
The Earth's surface is always changing. It changes through slow processes and rapid processes. Some slow processes are weathering and erosion. Other changes are rapid processes, such as volcanic eruption, landslides and avalanches, and earthquakes.
What is the slow processes of the changes to the earth?
A slow process of change to the earth's surface can be weathering or erosion.
How do waves affect coastal landforms?
the familiar waves we spot at the beach are often caused by wind.waves are also formed through tectonic activity.the ocean floor can cause the bottom of waves to slow down.
Which natural forces can cause slow changes in landforms?
Water and wind. The Grand Canyon is a great example of both.
How can volcanic eruption cause both slow changes and rapid changes to landforms?
The magma pushes together with the lava .
Are there different kinds of molasses?
well they are slow creatures and the kinds are: don't know. go find out yourself!!!!!!!!!!! ={
The slow circulation of the plastic mantle in the earths asthenosphere occurs by what processes?
convection
Why do crystal plate move?
The Earth's crust is formed of plates that are in constant slow movement. Scientists believe that this movement began 3.2 billion years ago. Before plate tectonics, the Earth's surface was shaped by different processes.
