Seismograph. When the earth shakes, so does the detector in the seismograph. That wiggles a pen which causes a wavey line as the shocks pass through the detector.

There are two potential alternative locations for another canal across the isthmus. these are in _________ and __________?
Reika [66]

There are two potential alternative locations for another canal across the isthmus. These are in <u>Mexico</u> and <u>Nicaragua</u>?

An isthmus is a slim strip of land that connects two larger landmasses and separates two bodies of water. This form of the isthmus is called a tombolo and is shaped as waves and tides slowly building up a sand bar to create an everlasting hyperlink between a coastal island (known as a tied island) and the mainland.

Definitely, the 2 most famous isthmuses are the Isthmus of Panama, connecting North and South America, and the Isthmus of Suez, connecting Africa and Asia.

An isthmus is a slim piece of land connecting two large regions across an expanse of water by which they may be otherwise separated. A tombolo is an isthmus that consists of a spit or bar, and a strait is the ocean counterpart of an isthmus.
