Describe in basic terms how elements were/are formed during the big bang (including the reasons why only H/He formed abundantly)‚ during normal stellar operation (including why some elements such as Si and Fe were formed more abundantly)‚ and during supernova processes/explosion Big bang only thing that forms out of the big bang is the nuetrons. Protons plus electrons = hydrogen. Hydrogen fuses the helium. There are no stable atoms with 5 or 8 nucleons (hydrogen would have 5‚ helium would have

1. Make a simple drawing of Earth’s three major zones. Describe the composition of the zones. Briefly explain the internal process of plate tectonics and the external geological process of erosion. ● Continental Plates (Crust)- consists of the continental crust‚ and the oceanic crust ● Mantle- solid rock‚ but under its rigid outermost part is a zone of very hot‚ partly melted rock that flows like soft plastic. The plastic is asthenosphere. ● Core- is very hot and has a solid inner part‚ surrounded
