Involvement - France is one of the six founding member of theEU.
It is one of the 6 core founding countries of the EU, so France technically founded & joined the EU in 1958.
Euro was introduced in 1999, and since 2012 France uses the Euro exclusively.
Because France used to be a powerful colonialist, they have overseas regions, territories which are not located in Europe, but their citizens are european citizens. For example, French Guiana people can live & work in Europe based on their French citizenship.
Because of its resemblance to a hexagon, france is sometimes called l’Hexagone
France abolished the guillotine as the capital method of punishment only in 1981 - 23 years after they founded the EU. The last person to be punished in France by guillotine was executed on 10 September 1977.
Answer:
The following is NOT part of the definition of a mineral: c. can be produced by natural or laboratory processes. Is glacial ice a mineral? d. Yes. Which type of bonds results when two atoms share electrons? d. Covalent
Explanation:
Mineral are composed of specific chemical elements. The are organized and their atomic structure forms crystals. They occur naturally and they are associated with rocks. The reason why they are inorganic is because they do not contain carbon, however, they can be produced by organic processes. Therefore, c. is NOT part of the definition of a mineral. Following the same principles, ice is considered a mineral because it is composed of one single chemical molecule (H2O), it occurs naturally and it contains a well organized crystal structure. The process of sharing two atoms is called covalent bond. In an ionic system, the electron is transferred to another atom so the concept of sharing is limited to the covalent bond.
Answer:
C. P waves move matter back and forth, in a direction parallel to the direction of the wave, while S waves move matter up and down, perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
Explanation:
P and S - waves are both called seismic waves. They are produced during deformation within the earth.
Usually, P or Primary waves have the fastest velocity and arrives at the seismic station first. Secondary, Shear or S-waves follows P-waves.
- P-waves are body waves that propagates within a body. They cause movement internally.
- Secondary waves are surface waves. They move on the surface of earth.
- One way to also distinguish between these two seismic waves is that, P-waves are longitudinal waves that travels parallel or longitudinally to the source.
- Secondary waves moves in an up and down motion pattern. They propagate transversely to their source.
Answer:
A cultural hearth is the origin location of the cultural trait being spread through diffusion. Therefore, the role it plays in the diffusion of a cultural aspect is being the starting point. From that point on, it will either spread as hierarchical diffusion, stimulus diffusion, relocation diffusion, or expansion diffusion.
Answer:
3.
Diversified economy ==> A nation with several climate zones exports almonds, cranberries, corn, wheat, and peaches.
Specialization ==> A nation rich in precious gem/stones just exports diamonds to be made into necklaces, rings, and other jewelry.
Single-resource economy ==> A nation with many pineapple plantations exports fresh pineapples, canned pineapples, and pineapple products.
Explanation:
Each of these economies differ from each other greatly.
