Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
a piece of pear turning brown
acid rain weathering a marble statue
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
A piece of a pear turning brown is a chemical change. The substances in the pear react with oxygen in the air and turn into a different type of matter.
If you scrape off the brown part of the pear, the inside will still be white. The inside hasn't touched the air. So the chemical change hasn't happened to that part of the pear.
Acid rain weathering a marble statue is a chemical change. The acid rain reacts with the outside of the statue and breaks it down into a different type of matter. This new matter is then washed away by the rain. Acid rain is a type of pollution. It forms when smoke from automobiles and factories mixes with water in clouds.
Acid rain is a type of pollution. It forms when automobiles and factories release smoke containing sulfur or nitrogen. Some of these chemicals react with water in the atmosphere. The reaction forms droplets of water that can fall back to the ground as acid rain.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence.
The Alpine Fault formed at a () boundary.
Solution: To figure out what type of plate boundary formed the Alpine Fault, you need to know how the tectonic plates interacted. To find this out, read the passage carefully.
The Alpine Fault runs the length of New Zealand’s South Island, marking a boundary between the Pacific Plate and the Indo-Australian Plate. As the two plates slide past each other, the Pacific Plate is being pushed up higher than the Indo-Australian Plate. So, the mountains above the Pacific Plate have higher elevations than the mountains above the Indo-Australian Plate.
In the picture, you can see snow on the high mountains of the Pacific Plate. The Indo-Australian Plate, which is at a lower elevation, has much less snow.
The underlined part of the passage explains that the two plates are sliding past each other. So, the Alpine Fault formed at a transform boundary. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
