How does ice in the North and South Poles trigger the movement of ocean currents?
Answer:
The ice cools the water, it sinks, moves toward the less dense and warmer water, as it warms up it rises and is pushed away by the cooler water that is coming from behind and below it.
Explanation:
The North and South Poles, as well as their surroundings, are covered with ice. The ice and the cold temperatures are cooling off the water, which makes it denser and heavier. The water sinks deeper because of its density and weight, and gradually starts t move toward the less dense waters.
As the cool water moves toward the less dense and warmer water of the lower latitudes, it gradually becomes warmer and rises on the surface. Because there is constantly water that is denser and heavier behind it, it is pushed, and it moves toward the higher latitudes as a surface current. As the water nears the poles it starts to cool off and reaches a point where its density and weight are larger and it sinks down again.
Explain the three types of erosion listed:
Splash erosion, sheet erosion, rill erosion
sheet erosion -Sheet erosion or sheet wash is the even erosion of substrate along a wide area. It occurs in a wide range of settings such as coastal plains, hillslopes, floodplains and beaches. Water moving fairly uniformly with a similar thickness over a surface is called sheet flow, and is the cause of sheet erosion.
Rill erosion occurs when runoff water forms small channels as it concentrates down a slope. These rills can be up to 0.3m deep. If they become any deeper than 0.3m they are referred to as gully erosion
Splash and sheet erosion causes the removal of soil in thin layers and is driven by both raindrop splash and overland flow, with both contributing to detachment and transport processes.

Explanation:
You are sailing on Lake Superior from Copper Harbor, Michigan, to Isle Royale National Park. A sudden storm causes your sailboat to spring a leak. You immediately grab a bucket and begin bailing water out of the boat. Briefly explain how your predicament could be used as an analogy to help explain both active and passive transport.
Answer:
Active transport is movement of lower to higher energy and passive transport is movement for higher to lower energy.
Explanation:
During the trip to the Michigan lake, the sudden onset of the storm leads to the filing of water inside the boat and it starts to sink. Represents one situation where the person immediately grabs a bucket in order to save his life. The second is crossing the lake in order to find a safe place. Here active transport is actively taking the water out of the boat as soon as possible. Passive transport involves escaping from one place to another such as a shore.Earth's continents are drifting slowly to this day.
