Question
only one misreads your It your reaponsibility. There are so indicated questione. Qs. 49 so each two questions correct by the ame 1. The recent earthquake in Nepal was caused by fault movements along continenta+continental divergent boundary (b) convergent boundary right lateral transform boundary (e) ocean-ocean divergent boundary 2. The damaging effects or current water drought in California can best be minimized by (b) reducing the agricultural water use by 30%, eg by switching to subsurface drip irrigation controlled through reducing the industrial and commercial water use by 30%, eg. serving water in restaurants (d) the water supply through better technology, eg. desalination, artificial rain using coud seeding, etc. 3. (a) deep ocean currents that flow from equator to the poles temperature differences (b) zones of higher rainfall along the windward sides of the mountains. The leeward sides of the mountains are called aquicludes (c) earth material that are saturated with fresh water and can yield fresh water economically (d) in global climatic patterns. During aquifers northern hemisphere starts receiving higher than normal precipitation and during aquicludes southem hemisphere starts receiving higher than normal precipitation (e) a general term for fresh water sources, applied to every part of a hydrologic cyde 4. Which of the following diagrams do not match correctly? (a) Streamflow hydrograph A (b) Meandering channel B (c) Water table C (d) Cone of depression D (e)All of the diagrams match comectlyExplanation / Answer
1- C ) The Nepal earthquake was occured due to collision of two continental plates, which are Indian and Asian plate.
2-
3- C ) Aquifer is a body of saturated rock through which water can easily move at subsurface.Aquifers must be both permeable and porous to yield water economically.
4- A ) Streamflow is the flow of water in streams, rivers, and other channels, and is a major element of the water cycle.A hydrograph is a chart showing, most often river stage (height of the water above an arbitrary altitude) and streamflow. Here the diagram showing river channel flow.
5-
6- E ) In rockcycle the rocks can be altered form one type to another.
7 - A) The formation of a clastic sedimentary rock: weathered,eroded due to friction of waves and wind, transportation by current or wind,and deposition and compaction takes place where the sediment is squashed together to form a rock.
8- D ) Due to urbanization the infiltration decreases and runoff increases.
9- C ) The sequence is best described as crust,lithosphere,asthenosphere,upper mantle,lower mantle,outer core,inner core.
10- B ) Limestone and coal are formed due to deposition of sediments and plants.Halite is mineral which is name for the substance that everyone knows as salt.
11- D ) Most exposed rocks on the earth surface are sedimentary rocks.But the major volume of earth crust is made by igneous and metamorphic rocks.
12- B ) Historically the greate loss of life is due to floods.The second cause is due to earthquakes.
13- E ) All of the matchings are correct.
14- B ) The granite is plutonic volcanic rock.
15-
16- C ) Poorly cemented and compacted sand and gravels are the best for aquifer
17- B ) coal is formed due to sedimentation of plants and orgonic/biological materials.
18- Hayward faultb is an example of transform plate boundary between the Pacific and the North american plate.
