The northern half of Brazil is dominated by the Amazon Basin. This basin is formed by one of the longest rivers in the world, the Amazon River, which is also the river that has the highest amount of water in it. It lies in the middle of the Amazon Basin, cutting it in half, and in certain parts of the year flooding parts of it. This basin is covered by tropical rainforest, in fact the largest tropical rainforest in the world, the Amazon rainforest. It is an area dominated by lowlands and small hills, cut by thousands of smaller and larger rivers, all of which are tributaries to the largest one, the Amazon River. This basin is also the place on the planet that has the highest biodiversity in the world of plants or animals.
There are three types of plate-plate interactions based upon relative motion: convergent, where plates collide, divergent, where plates separate, and transform motion, where plates simply slide past each other.
Cyclones and ocean currents transport heat towards the poles
Explanation:
The reason why the tropics is not getting hotter and the poles not getting colder is due to the activities of cyclones and ocean currents which transport heats towards the poles thus enabling the temperatures at the tropics and the poles to remain fairly constant.
