Which statements BEST describes a command economy? Resources are owned by the government. Capitalism is a type of command econom
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The correct statements are:

- <em>Resources are owned by the government;</em>

The command economies are typical for the socialist/communist countries. In this type of economy, the government controls everything, the resources of the country, the production facilities, trade is organized by the government officials, the planning for production of when, how much, and how, is done by government officials... Unfortunately for the people living in this types of countries, this type of economy very often led to big problems, especially in the food supply department.

- <em>Little changes from generation to generation;</em>

This can be seen as trait of both command and traditional economy. In the command economy there are little to no changes as the time passes, so from one generation to another, the changes will either be lacking, or they will be so minor that they will be unnoticeable.

4. Explain the different forms of precipitation?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The most common types of precipitation are rain, hail, and snow.

Tropical cyclones are like giant engines that use warm, moist air as fuel. That is why they form only over warm ocean waters near the equator. The warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface. Because this air moves up and away from the surface, there is less air left near the surface.

They are classified as follows: Tropical Depression: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph (33 knots) or less. Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 39 to 73 mph (34 to 63 knots). Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher.
