Answer:

Andes mountain range is not the result of continental-continental convergence.

Explanation:

Between two continental plates when a convergent boundary occurs, the more denser plate is subducted by the less denser one resulting in the formation of various land forms like mountain ranges, earthquakes, volcanoes.

This is known as continental-continental convergence.

Appalachians are the old mountain ranges formed as a 'result of collision' between North America and Europe continental plates.

Alps and Himalayas are also the 'result of continental plate collision'.

'Andes mountains' are a result of oceanic - continental plate collision.

Answer:

at 4 p.m Baghdad located at 45°E

at 8p.m Indonesia is located at x°

we have

common difference in time =8p.m-4p.m=4hours =4×60min

again

we have

4min=1°

4×60min=4×60/4=60°

since time is in p.m on both so they lie in same direction

Therefore, longitude of Indonesia=60°E.

hope this helps you. thanks

Which is an example of humans interacting with their environment

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer : 

There are three ways in which humans and environment interact with each other : 

Humans Depend on the Environment: The natural environment is made up of living things and non living things. Humans depend on the natural environment for their basic needs; food, shelter, and clothing.
Humans Modify the Environment: People modify (change) the natural environment to meet their needs. For example, they build dams, plow and irrigate fields, and dig mines. They build houses, schools, and shopping centers on land. This also includes human's impact on the earth's health. Creating pollution, litter and carbon dioxide all affect the earth's condition.
Humans Adapt to the Environment: Humans have settled in virtually every corner of the world by successfully adapting to various natural settings. 
have settled in virtually every corner of the world by successfully adapting to various natural settings. For example, people who live in the northern United States use heating units to keep their homes warm in winter. People in the southern part of the United States use air conditioning most of the year to stay cool in the heat. In addition, in countries where earthquakes are common homes and buildings are built to survive an earthquake.
