What would be covered with thick turbidite layers?
deep-sea fan at the base of a continental slope
What is a Lacolith?
When magma flows between rock layers and spreads upward, it sometimes pushes the overlying rock layers into a dome. The base of the intrusion is parallel to the rock layer beneath it.
Is 73 degrees cold or hot?
Cold and hot are relative terms. You need to state a base reference for comparison.
Why do scientists expect to find the older layers of sedimentary rock below the younger layers?
By observation:- If you have 3 jars of different colored sand and you pour them one after the other into a clear glass container, they will form 3 layers one on top of the other. The oldest layer (the one you poured in first) will be at the base, underneath the other two. The second layer, the one you poured in next will be on top of the first but underneath the last. The third layer will be on top of all the rest and will be the one you poured in last. Thus rocks are laid down with the older layers at the base and getting younger as you go up. This is called "the law off superposition".
What is coastal onlap?
The deposition and onlap of coastal non-marine and littoral deposits further and further inland, due to a relative rise in sea level. If, subsequently, relative sea level falls, the base level is lowered and erosion probably occurs at the top of the sequence. At the next relative sea level rise, coastal onlap will recommence but from a lower level. This downward shift in coastal onlap is thus an indication that there has been a relative fall in sea level.

What activities should one wear base layers for?
You can wear base layers for many activities. Wearing base layers is a good way to keep you warm or cool. This makes it great for sports such as biking or skiing.
What are the causes of slag inclusion?
Slag inclusions are nonmetallic solid material entrapped in weld metal or between weld metal and base metal. Slag inclusions are regions within the weld cross section or at the weld surface where the once-molten flux used to protect the molten metal is mechanically trapped within the solidified metal. This solidified slag represents a portion of the weld's cross-section where the metal is not fused to itself. This can result in a weakened condition which could impair the serviceability of the component. Inclusions may also appear at the weld surface. Like incomplete fusion, slag inclusions can occur between the weld and base metal or between individual weld passes. In fact, slag inclusions are often associated with incomplete fusion. Daniel
What's the base feature of sedimentary rocks?
Stratification. The existence of layers.
What is current market capitalization and base market capitalization?
current market capitalization may refer to the the value that you see today is the sum of the free float market capital of the thirty companies relative to the base market capital. base market capitalization refers to The value of a set of securities at a particular time. The base market value of a set of securities is used to determine the value of an index.
What is used to determine the pH of an acid or base?
indicator
Can you use the solution electric current to determine if it is an ancid or base?
In order to determine whether it is an acid or base you will first have to check the measurements of hydronium. This can found in the pH concentration.
The area of a parallelogram is 392m2 If its altitude is twice the corresponding base determine the base and the altitude?
Base=14 AND Altitude=28.
What has the author Cathy A Summers written?

Proportions what percent of 140 is 40?
The percentage of 40 relative to a base of 140 is required.In general, divide the relative number by the base number and multiply the result by 100 to obtain the percentage.100 x 40/140 = 28.57% (2dp)
Why is acid-base titration a useful technique in chemistry?
because it allows you to determine the pH of an acid or base.
