In the north, there is the Sahara desert. This is a vast and arid dry climate. There is very little precipitation. In the rest of Africa (sub Saharan) there is the savannah and rainforests. The savannah is a vast grassland filled with few trees and tall grass. This is located in the south area of Africa. In the middle part and western part of Africa there is dense rainforests, like the Congo. These rainforests get lots of precipitation and are gone to many species of animals, ie. Old world primates like apes. The East part of Africa is in an arid climate.

Answer:

South Africa is a relatively dry country, with an average annual rainfall of about 464 mm. While the Western Cape gets most of its rainfall in winter, the rest of the country is generally a summer-rainfall region. South Africa's coastal regions are therefore relatively warm in winter.

So in short: Hot and dry.

Hope this helps :)

Based on the following chart of nuclear weapons and nuclear weapons history of the “nuclear club”, what can you infer about the

miss Akunina [59]

The answer is (B) beginning in the 1940s, both the United States and Russia lead the way and successfully testing nuclear weapons

U.S. conducted six atomic tests before Russia developed their very first atomic bomb (RDS-1) and tested it on the 29th of August, 1949. Testing these bombs back then for both countries were relatively infrequent because they did not have very many atomic bombs to spare. The Trinity was tested on the 16th of July 1945 and yielded around 20 kilotons.

Trinity, which was conducted in New Mexico was tested to give an idea of the actual size and the after- effects of a nuclear explosion. Operation first lightning or the RDS-1 also known as Joe 1 in the west was tested on August 29th 1949 and considered this test as the first Soviet nuclear test.

What effect did the movement of glaciers have on the region? 1. caused the formation of fjords 2. created thousands of lakes 3.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

A fjord is usually defined as a contrasting geological landform, which is typically a U-shaped valley, that is formed due to the movement of the glaciers. It is generally narrow and forms steep-sided cliffs on both the sides and is mostly connected to the seas. They have huge depth, sometimes reaches up to a depth of about 1300 m. The downward flowing glaciers pushes the terminal moraine and allows it to remain underwater at its entrance, resulting in shallow water at the fjord's neck, in comparison to the main body of the fjord that is located behind it.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
