Answer 1

its a darling

Answer 2

This is a confusing question. I know evaporation increases ocean salinity but I'm not really sure which the correct answer would be since high levels of precipitation would mean more evaporation, but high levels of evaporation is also an answer choice... What do you think?

Answer 11

Which explains how the moon and, to some degree, the sun cause tides on the earth?

A.
The moon and sun exert a gravitational pull on the earth. The moon pulls strongest on the ocean water on the opposite side, lesser on the solid earth, and the least on ocean water on the same side of the earth. The pull creates tidal bulges that are earth’s high tides. Low tides occur at the halfway point between the bulges.

B.
The moon and sun exert a gravitational pull on the earth. The moon pulls strongest on the ocean water on the same side, while the sun pulls on the ocean water on the side opposite the moon. The pull creates tidal bulges that are earth’s high tides. Low tides occur at the halfway point between the bulges.

The moon and sun exert a gravitational pull on the earth. The sun pulls strongest on the ocean water on the same side, while the moon pulls on the ocean water on the side opposite the moon.
