Answer:

<u>1. c. Peruvian coast, 2. c. Asia, 3. c. Paris, 4. Andes</u>

Explanation:

  • Peru is located on the western coast of South America and faces the pacific ocean and located in the southern hemisphere it shares the longest border with brazil. Having a total area of 1,285,215.6 km square.
  • Due to the latitude, mountain ranges and topography variations and the two oceanic currents like the Humboldt and El Niño which bring a diverse tropical climate of wt and dry spells to this region thus experiences a drought type conditions of the coasts of Peru.
  • Places on earth most likely to encounter the trade winds are in Asia as these winds are moving in an east to west direction following the earth equatorial region, i.e 30 degrees North and South.
  • To get the shortest flight from Los Angles to Moscow the plane would have to land in Paris as to refuel and thus making it the shortest flight by less than half-hour.
  • Andes mountain runs parallel through the south American north to south borders.

Explain the Theory of Plate Tectonics. Write a claim below that explains how the continents moved over time and introduces 3 pie
melomori [17]

Answer:

theory dealing with the dynamics of Earth’s outer shell—the lithosphere—that revolutionized Earth sciences by providing a uniform context for understanding mountain-building processes, volcanoes, and earthquakes as well as the evolution of Earth’s surface and reconstructing its past continents and oceans.

The concept of plate tectonics was formulated in the 1960s. According to the theory, Earth has a rigid outer layer, known as the lithosphere, which is typically about 100 km (60 miles) thick and overlies a plastic (moldable, partially molten) layer called the asthenosphere. The lithosphere is broken up into seven very large continental- and ocean-sized plates, six or seven medium-sized regional plates, and several small ones. These plates move relative to each other, typically at rates of 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) per year, and interact along their boundaries, where they converge, diverge, or slip past one another. Such interactions are thought to be responsible for most of Earth’s seismic and volcanic activity, although earthquakes and volcanoes can occur in plate interiors. Plate motions cause mountains to rise where plates push together, or converge, and continents to fracture and oceans to form where plates pull apart, or diverge. The continents are embedded in the plates and drift passively with them, which over millions of years results in significant changes in Earth’s geography.

The theory of plate tectonics is based on a broad synthesis of geologic and geophysical data. It is now almost universally accepted, and its adoption represents a true scientific revolution, analogous in its consequences to quantum mechanics in physics or the discovery of the genetic code in biology. Incorporating the much older idea of continental drift, as well as the concept of seafloor spreading, the theory of plate tectonics has provided an overarching framework in which to describe the past geography of continents and oceans, the processes controlling creation and destruction of landforms, and the evolution of Earth’s crust, atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and climates. During the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it became apparent that plate-tectonic processes profoundly influence the composition of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, serve as a prime cause of long-term climate change, and make significant contributions to the chemical and physical environment in which life evolves.

Explain the seasonal precipitation pattern in bangkok in terms of pressure and wind systems. what causes the summer rains? what
marysya [2.9K]

Bangkok, the capital of the Southeast Asian country of Thailand, is influenced by the monsoons, and they are the dominant climatic factor in this region and gives it its climatic patters.

There's two seasons, a wet one, and a dry one. The wet season is characterized by heavy rainfall for a prolonged period of time, and those rains are brought by the wet and warm monsoons coming from east. The dry season is characterized by prolonged period of time that is warm and dry, and that is caused by the dry monsoon winds coming from the west.

During the wet season, the air pressure is higher because the rain increases the weight of the air.

During the dry season, the air pressure is lower because of the high evaporation, and the water vapor is lighter than the air itself, thus causing the air to weigh less.
