Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The distance in degrees east or west of the prime meridian is called longitude. The Prime Meridian was established to be the zero point from which other longitudinal points would be measured from. Latitude is the measure of points on the globe based upon their location from the equator based upon a north/south direction. The equator is the center point of the globe in the scale of latitude and is an artificial line that runs around the globe dividing the globe into the northern and southern hemispheres.

Is a sunflower a producer,consumer or a decomposer

Answers

Sunflowers are producers. A food web includes sunflowers as both producers and consumers. Sunflowers help the soil's food chain replenish its energy. Only herbivores in the food chain use sunflowers as a source of food and energy.

Sunflowers are producers, placing them at the base of the food chain and at the top of a food web. Numerous insects, particularly tiny omnivores, depend on sunflowers for food, energy, and shade. As an illustration, numerous birds eat the seeds it produces, and caterpillars eat the huge leaves it produces.

The abundant seeds that sunflowers generate can be used in salads, baked into bread, or even made into a smooth nut-free sunflower butter. You'll get a bigger crop of edible plants if you grow a kind that produces seeds.

Therefore, sunflowers are producers.

What happens when a continental plate meets another continental plate at a convergent boundary? One or two sentences please

Answers

Answer:

A convergent boundary means they are pushing towards each other (not side by side nor away).  That causes pressure that will most likely cause earthquakes until it settles down in position.

The earthquakes might be felt by the human population or not, depending on the strength of the movements involved and where they occur, but they will be registered by the seismographs around the world for sure.  Every day, thousands of earthquakes happen all over the planet, and only a handful of them are felt by humans.
