Question: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The movement is due to a combination of gravity acting on the sediment, and/or the movement of the fluid in which the sediment is entrained - Sediment transport occurs in natural systems where the particles are clastic rocks (sand, gravel, boulders, etc.), mud, or clay - The fluid is air, water, or ice - And the force of gravity acts to move the particles along the sloping surface on which they are resting - Sediment transport due to fluid motion occurs in rivers, oceans, lakes, seas, and other bodies of water due to currents and tides - Transport is also caused by glaciers as they flow -
Answer: Sediment transport is the movement of solid particles (sediment)

[Q]: What is the missing first step of the following process: - As water expands it puts great pressure on the walls of anything containing it, including any rocks which happen to be surrounding it - The force of the pressure exerted on the rock surrounding it is enough to wedge the walls of the crack farther apart, thus expanding and deepening the crack - Clay expends when wet like ice does - This causes rock to break apart - Some plants like mosses and lichens are capable of growing without soil on bare rock - When they do this their roots penetrate pores and crevices and cause rocks to split apart as the roots force their way down through the rocks -
****
[A]: When water freezes it becomes 10% bigger, or takes up 10% more space

input: Please answer the following: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The lungs have a series of smaller and finer tubes and sacs - Air reaches the smallest and finest air sacs called alveoli - Oxygen travels from the alveoli into the blood - Oxygen-rich blood is carried to the heart - Oxygen-rich blood is pumped throughout the body by the heart - Cells take in the oxygen rich blood and release carbon dioxide rich blood - The carbon dioxide rich blood travels to the lungs - Carbon dioxide travels through the throat and is exhaled.
++++++++++
output: Air enters the nose or mouth and travels through the windpipe into the lungs

Please answer this: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The energy from the sunlight causes an enzyme in the plant to break apart the water - The water breakes into oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons - Hydrogen, along with electrons energized by light, converts NADP into NADPH - Oxygen diffuses out of the plant as a waste product of photosynthesis -
++++++++
Answer: Sunlight hits chloroplasts in the plant

Problem: What is the missing first step of the following process: - Bread absorbs water from the air - Bread absorbs warmth from the air - Dust particles with mold spores fall on bread - Mold spores start to consume the bread for energy - Mold colonies grow until they are visible.

A: Bread is exposed to the elements

input: Please answer the following: What is the missing first step of the following process: - Coal is pulverized into fine powder - The coal is mixed with hot air - The coal and hot air are blown into a boiler - The coal and hot air burn over a fire - Highly purified water is pumped through pipes in the boiler - The water turns into steam - The steam presses against turbines - The turbines spin - Electricity is produced.
++++++++++
output:
Coal is mined out of the ground
