<h2>ANSWER </h2>

<h2>Latitude</h2>

Lines of latitude circle the Earth in an east-west direction. They are parallel.

They are different lengths, eg:

the equator is 40,075 km long
the Antarctic circle is 17,662 km long
the South Pole is 0 km long

<h3>Important lines of latitude:</h3>

the equator (0°)
the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° north)
the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5° south)
the Arctic circle (66.5° north)
the Antarctic circle (66.5° south)
the North Pole (90° north)
the South Pole (90° south)

Latitude and longitude make up the grid system that helps us identify absolute, or exact, locations on the Earth's surface. You can use latitude and longitude to identify specific locations. Latitude and longitude are also helpful in identifying landmarks.

________________________________

Latitude plays an important role in determining the climate of a region. The Earth is spherical in shape, and the curvature increases with the latitude. The amount of solar energy and heat received from the Sun decreases as we go to higher latitudes or as we go away from the Equator toward the poles.

What can you do to your essay to ensure that you are avoiding unintentional plagiarism?

Natasha2012 [34]

<span>Unintentional plagiarism is where someone takes someone else’s idea and thinks that they would have thought of the same thing, which leads them to use some of the same words and the person's idea as their own without properly citing or giving them credit for their work. To avoid unintentional plagiarism you should create a references page and cite any sources that you received any information from. Knowing how to properly cite sources is very important, make sure you take note of every website, book, article, etc. so that there is no way to overlook citing that source.
</span>When in doubt cite it out!!

Answer:

Which layer of the earth are the same age

Explanation:

RELATIVE AGE. The Law of Superposition states that in a layered, depositional sequence (such as a series of sedimentary beds or lava flows), the material on which any layer is deposited is older than the layer itself. Thus, the layers are successively younger, going from bottom to top.

Answer:

Transaction exposure is High if the two currencies are Negatively correlated.

Explanation:

The reason is that when the two amounts are the same with positive correlation, then the benefit arising from the dollars is equal to losses in chinese Yen. And the net effect will be no profit and no loss arising due to the strengthening of the other.

This means if their is no correlation then the two currencies might move adversely at the same time and the example can be taken by analyzing that Ethiopia is largely independent of making sales to America so the possibility exists that the company will either increase its worth or decrease its worth by the currency movements.
