...Ellyssa Rodriguez Oceans Ch Review 6. A rip current is a narrow stream of water flowing toward the ocean, like a wave going back in to the ocean. A rip current can be hazardous for swimmers because the can move very quickly and it is easy for a swimmer to get caught in one and be stuck under water before drowning. 10. The fuel that powers tropical cyclones and extratropical cyclones are very high sea surface temperatures, moisture in the surrounding air, and the coriolis effect. CRITICAL THINKING 6. A undeveloped barrier island is constantly changing because it is constantly reacting to the constant actions of the waves and winds in conjunction with one another. So this makes the islands move slowly but continuously by the way that the wind can erode the shore and move the sand to another part of the island, forcing it to slowly move. 10. Some ways that rising sea level can impact a coastal zone would be the erosion that the new higher waters are touching land, It could also push sea life farther up land where waters haven’t been. Also it can also cause a disturbance to the life where the water is rising.

...Programming Midterm Study Guide Programs that make a computer useful for everyday tasks are known as application software. System software – the programs that control and manage the basic operations of a computer. System software types: Operating system: most fundamental set of programs on a computer. Controls the internal operations of the computers hardware manage all of the devices connected to the computer, allows data to be saved to and retrieved from storage device, and allows other programs to run on the computer. Utility programs: performs a specialized task that enhances the computer’s operation or safeguard data. Examples are virus scanners, file compression programs, and data backup programs. Software Development tools: the programs that programmers use to create, modify, and tests software. Assemblers, compilers, and interpreters are examples. Interpreter is a program that both translates and executes the instructions in a high-level language program. The statements that a programmer writes in a high-level language are called source code or code. Syntax error is a mistake such as a misspelled key word, a missing punctuation character, or the incorrect use of an operator. NOTE: programs that are compiled generally execute faster than programs that are interpreted because a compiled program is already translated entirely to machine language when it is executed. A program that is interpreted must be translated at the time it is executed. Compiler...
