When talking of the ancient cultures, the area between Tigris and Euphrates is referred to as "Mesopotamia" - and I believe that this is the correct answer .

Answer:

Drainage divide

Explanation:

A drainage divide is the ridge that divides to drainage basins or sub-basins. A drainage divide, is an elevated area separating neighboring drainage basins. Therefore, in general the greater the drainage basin, the greater the river flow.

The divide occurs on rough land along topographical ridges, and may be in the form of a single set of hills or mountains, known as a dividing range.

Drainage divisions, whatever the scale, occur in elevated terrain like mountain ranges or hills.   In example, precipitation falling on one side of the divide will flow into one basin and precipitation falling on the other side will flow into another.

Why do we expect wimps to be distributed throughout galactic halos, rather than settled into the galaxy's disk?
Paha777 [63]
The answer is that "since they do not interact with the electromagnetic force, they do not feel friction or drag and hence do not contract with the rest of the protogalactic cloud." WIMPs (Weakly-Interacting Massive Particles) are hypothetically constituted to dark matter. It is in their nature to be less interactive, so they are scattered throughout galactic halos and not focused into the galaxy's disk.
