Do you think a country's geographical boundary can determine its economic status?why?​
eimsori [14]
Yes different geographic areas have different limitations and benefits. For example Chad is a landlocked country. This means they are limited for their options of trade. In this instance it is lack of ports. While a country that is located on a large amount of oil maybe have an easier time building its economy due to its abundance of a valuable natural resource.

Did pushing (compression), pulling (tension), or sideways forces (shear) in the rock layers produce the folds and faults?
antiseptic1488 [7]

pushing (compression)

According to the illustration, the middle block is pushed up – a lifted block. This can only happen in compression forces. Otherwise, if they wee tension forces, the middle block would sink. Also due to the compression forces, it is possible to view the warping of the crust in the illustration.

Explanation:

Examples of such geographical features are the Vosges mountain in France  called a block mountain. The parts that are uplifted are called Horsts while those that sink are Graben. Compression forces also form fold mountains like the Himalayas. In this case the crust dies not shear from the compression forces. Only Antisynclines and Synclines are formed.
