Because water has a very high specific heat, it is very common that areas near oceans or large lakes tend to have more moderate and warmer climates than those that are away from these big bodies of water.

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The specific heat of any particular substance is usually defined as the amount of heat energy that is required to raise a unit mass of the material by 1°C. The water has this high heat capacity as a result of which the water bodies such as oceans, seas and lakes tends to become hot and cold at a much slower rate.

This is why the near coastal areas or the areas that are near to water bodies have a moderate type of climate than the areas that are far away from these water bodies.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Choose a technology advancement in agriculture, such as the use of modern fertilizer, pesticides, or refrigeration. How has this
Blababa [14]

I would take the advancement of the refrigeration as a crucial part in the increasing of the production.

The refrigeration has been extremely important in the agriculture and the amount of production in it, because with it the agricultural products can be kept fresh for much longer periods. Because the products can be kept fresh for much longer time, that means that they can be delivered to pretty much every part of the world and not be spoiled. So the refrigeration opened up the doors for the farmers in the sense that instead producing only for the region or the country they live in, they can now produce much more for exporting, as the products will not spoil and remain fresh. That has also brought in much bigger profit for the farmers, and the production is constantly increasing because the whole market in the world is open with this technological advancement.
