300
Which type of plate boundary is pictured below?
Divergent
300
The sun is not the biggest or brightest, but why does it appear like that to us on Earth?
Because it is the closest to us
300
Which organism on the food web is the most sustainable and why?

The temperature decreases, luminosity/ brightness goes down
400
Which organism on the food web will have the greatest effect on all other organisms in the ecosystem?

What season is it in the northern hemisphere for the earth positioned on the left side, and where will the southern hemisphere experience that season?
Winter, the earth on the left side.
500
Why are different landform generated at convergent boundaries?
Each boundary formation depends on the type of crust that is moving towards each other. (ex- continental v. oceanic crust)
