Answer:
1. The human's developed demonstration of the surface of the Earth is called maps. The characteristics like rivers, roads, and buildings are demonstrated by symbols.
2. The mathematical association between the actual distance on the ground and its demonstration on map is called scale.
3. Geographers utilize direction and distance to illustrate relative location, which is the position of one place with reference to another.
4. On a map or globe, the exact positioning of places is predicted by a universally accepted grid system. The system comprises lines of latitudes demonstrated by parallels, and the lines of longitude are demonstrated by meridians.
5. The initiation point on the grid system for finding the latitudinal location is the zero degrees latitude or equator, while the initiation point for finding the longitudinal location is the prime meridian.
6. All lines of longitude meet at the poles.
7. All the lines of latitude are parallel to the equator.
Tibet, the Roof of the World, is the highest plateau in the world. However, most of its land is arid or a semi-desert. The average annual precipitation is about 381 mm (about 15 inches) and is significantly less in some areas. Tibet experiences bitterly cold weather and is lashed by harsh winds throughout the year. The average annual temperature is around 1.1 degrees Celsius (34 degrees Fahrenheit).
The mountains are treeless, with only grasses and shrubs growing. Tibetan people live in the valleys of the Indus and the Brahmaputra, where they are able to grow some crops. The river valleys also support a few species of trees including oak, cypress, polar and maple. In addition, the people grow apple, peach, pear and apricot trees.
The answer would be C) Shifting of sea floor due to movement of tectonic plates. (Huge waves need an abrupt force to cause them)
Answer:
True, hopefully it helps!
