The ecological footprint of the average people of Bangladesh  is 0.5 global hectares per person which much less than  average of the world ( 2.84 global hectares per capita ) .it indicates that a low purchasing power of Bangladesh . less consumption means less production .also there are few industries in Bangladesh. This is the reason the ecological footprint of Bangladesh is so small .

The United states ecological footprint is larger than that of other countries because per capita consumption of energy and a wide range of goods of all kinds is greater . wastes ,including carbon dioxide ,are greater as ell , adding to the relative size of the footprint . this is the reason the ecological footprint of the people of United states is large .

Hence ,the ecological footprint of Bangladesh  is so small and the ecological footprint of United states is so large .

<h3>What is ecological footprint ?</h3>

The ecological footprint is a method promoted by the global footprint network to measure human demand on natural capital , i.e. the quantity of nature it takes  to support people or an economy .

It tracks this demand through an ecological accounting system .

The ecological footprint is the only metric that measures how much nature and how much nature we use .The footprint helps : countries to improve sustainability and well-being , local leaders to optimize public project investments , individuals to understand their impact on the planet.

Andru [333]

There are mountain ranges in the middle of the ocean floor. Because of the higher elevation gravity pushes down on the edges of the plates. This is called ridge push.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Ridge push is a simple explanation of the height of the landforms based on the gravity and the elasticity of the underlying rock. It says when a landform gets too much higher, the weight of the overlying rock and soil pushes the landform back to plains. Thereby an equilibrium is maintained.  

Slab pull is a theory proposed which visualizes the earth interior as a pool of hot molten lava that has a convection current going on. It explains why the crust of the earth continuously moves slowly and forms mountains and other rift valleys.

Which population is limited by density-dependent factors?
dedylja [7]

Answer: (c) A local wolf population experiences a lethal epidemic of parvovirus.

Explanation:

A limiting factor is one which is capable of limiting the population of the species. It can be a living factor or a non-living factor.  

The density dependent limiting factor is a factor which affects the population of a species depending upon the size of the population. There are many density dependent limiting factors such as disease, migration, predation and food.  

C is the correct option, this is because of the fact that the epidemic outbreak can spread over to the large number of members of the population. If larger the population size more likely will be the chances of spreading.
