15. if sewage sludge is disposed of in deep-water, where a density gradient separates surface water from deep water, internal waves transport waste a) horizontally b) to sink to the ocean floor c) non of the abovel

a) horizontally

Explanation:

If the sewage sludge is disposed of into the deep water , then the density gradient separates the surface water from the deep water,

the internal waves transport wastes horizontally .

When the transport of the particles is dominated by the tides ,wind and the  density gradients, the movement is essentially in horizontal direction whereas the vertical transport of the particles is mainly driven by gravity and also by some other processes that occur at the sediment-water interface.

the proximity of water was an advantage to western europe and its culture was able to flourish as a result. trade and travel by sea were easier and safer in historical times.

1. there are no mountains to protect it from the sea

2. and its has wet cool summers and wet, mild winters.
