<u>Answer:</u>

Latitude and Longitude are the imaginary lines that divide the earth into squares giving a precise number location for a place.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The horizontal imaginary line that divides Earth into 'North and South poles' is called Latitude.
  • The vertical imaginary line that divides Earth into 'East and West hemispheres' is called Longitude.
  • Together Latitude and Longitude form the Earth's geographical coordinates which represent the 'angular distance of any location' on Earth from its center.
  • The four imaginary lines on the globe are Equator, tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, Prime Meridian.
  • Only one continent Africa has all the 'four imaginary lines' passing through it.

most countries in europe follow Christianity and speak a languade derived from indo-europen. this area can be considered a ____?
Talja [164]

Answer:

Europe can be considered as a cultural region.

Explanation:

Europe is part of the Eurasian continent. It has been defined as a separate continent not as all others, but on the basis of culture, religion, and race. While this may come as strange, it is not actually, as almost all ethnic groups are descended from the Aryans, speak Indo-European languages, and follow the same religion (Christianity).

These traits put Europe on the map as a cultural region. Not to be confused though, as these are all general traits, which is in contrast with the high amount of different cultures, languages, and religious fractions throughout Europe. While the continent as a whole can be defined as a cultural region, it has to be mentioned that there are also smaller ethnic groups like the Magyars, Szekely, Finns, Basques, Tartars, etc. that come from different cultural, ethnic, and in some cases religious backgrounds.

Magnetic patterns develop on the seafloor as basaltic lava erupts and cools, and ______.
BartSMP [9]

<u>Iron-rich minerals align with the Earth's magnetic field</u> as basaltic lava erupts, cools, and forms magnetic patterns on the seabed.

Lava is molten rock that emerges as a liquid from under the Earth's surface. The term "lava" is also used to describe the rock that is generated when molten lava cools and solidifies. Either the substance is exceedingly stiff and barely flows, or it might be incredibly fluid, flowing nearly like syrup. The viscosity of the lava increases with silica concentration.

Hawaiian terms pahoehoe and aa (or a'a) refer to flows that are often formed by mafic (ferromagnesian, dark-colored) lavas like basalt. Smooth, subtly undulating, or extensively hummocky surfaces define Pahoehoe lava flows. A thin, still-plastic crust is dragged and wrinkled into twisted rope-like folds and rolls by the flowing molten lava beneath it.
