Answer:

Larger the population, higher the (water) tension

Explanation:

The rise in population leads to higher demand for water for domestic, industrial, agricultural and municipal needs and also evacuation for waste materials. The most water scarce areas are typically those with few water resources, high population, and even higher population growth rates.

Earth's water is _____. mostly in lakes and rivers unequally distributed mostly found in dry climates easily accessible to peopl
olasank [31]

The correct answer is - unequally distributed.

The water on the planet is not distributed equally. Be it the salt water or the fresh water, there's big differences from place to place.

The salt water for example, is much more abundant on the Southern Hemisphere, while it is much less found on the Northern Hemisphere.

The freshwater though, has much bigger differences on much smaller spaces. While places like the northern half of South America or most of Europe are abundant with water, there's places do not have it at all, like the Arabian Peninsula. The Arabian Peninsula actually doesn't have a single stream or river that have a constant flow, while on the other hand, you have a very small country like Macedonia that has over 2,000 streams and rivers on just above 25,000 km².

At higher elevations, the boiling point of water decreases, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. As a result, what
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

b. At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point,  so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.

Explanation:

The best answer from the given choices is that, at higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.

  • Boiling point is simply the pressure at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
  • At higher elevations, the atmospheric pressure is low and it would require little heat to boil water and turn it into vapor.
  • To hard boil an egg, we need elevated temperature.
  • But since water to use hard boiling has an unusually low temperature, it becomes more difficult since much of the water turns into vapor.
  • This is why at higher elevations, it takes a longer time to hard boil eggs.

On what body of water is the city of los angeles located?
aniked [119]
The body of water that the city of Los Angeles is located on is called the Los Angeles River. It now flows through a concrete channel on a fixed course, since it has been redrawn after many chaotic floods. The river is rarely used however for fresh water for the city, as it is now very polluted and has urban discharge in it's water, so the aqueducts in the city are now used for the fresh water mainly utilized in Los Angeles.
