Answer from: luis759

Option (B)

Explanation:

Regression here refers to the marine regression, which can be simply defined as a distinct geological process that takes place when some parts of submerged ocean-floor are revealed above the elevation of the mean sea.

This results in the shifting of the coastal region towards the sea and it often occurs due to the tectonic movements, isostatic adjustment, and orogenic upliftment.

They are not caused due to the increasing climatic condition and melting of the ice sheets.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Answer from: celeste961

a. They are not typically well preserved in the sedimentary record.

Explanation:

Marine regression is a geologic process that occurs in areas of the submerged seafloor that are exposed to the sea levels. The transgression and regression of the sea have led to various extinctions, in the Permian and the Triassic age and has been linked to slow down the seafloor spreading. Also associated with the variation in sea floor topography.

In a right-angled triangle: 1- the hypotenuse is the longest side2- we can apply pythagorean rule which states that: (hypotenuse)^2 = (side1)^2 + (side2)^2for the given triangle,longest side is 15 cm side1 = 9 cmside2 is 12 cm to check whether the triangle is right-angled or not,compare (15)^2 to the summation of (9)^2 and (12)^in other words, compare 225 to the summation of 81 and 144if they are both equal, then the triangle is right-angles, otherwise, it is not.you haven't provided the diagram showing her work, so i cannot tell the choice. however, apply my explanation to the question you have.
