Geography
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer with Explanation:

The "North American Plate" is said to be one of the largest plates that includes continents such as <em>Greenland </em>and <em>Iceland (part of it).</em> It borders the "Eurasian Plate" in the middle of the <em>Atlantic Ocean</em>. In this area, plates move away from each other due to <u>divergent boundary</u>. Such movements of these plates is caused by "convection currents." Such current allows the transfer of heat <em>(mantle material)</em> from the bottom to the surface, thereby pushing the "lithosphere." It then results to a<em> mid-ocean ridge. </em>

Explain two problems faced by people living in slums in Dharavi, India (4) Sentence Starter - One of the main problems faced by
masha68 [24]

Answer:

One of the main problems faced by people living in Dharavi is the increasing population.

Explanation:

The increasing population in Dharavi makes it really hard for the people who are already living in the slums, as slums, in general, have a lack of privacy and a lack of hygiene. There is a lack of privacy in slums because what they are living in is literally made out of waste, therefore, there is no security for people living their as well as their children. There is a lack of hygiene as there is not any clean water which leads to pests and diseases surrounding the area. This is why people get ill and badly sick as it is not very easy for the people living in Dharavi to get hold of medicines. So this is one of the main problems people face in Dharavi, as it is very important for all people to have a  good and healthy lifestyle.

Fudgin [204]
I believe the answer is:
- A Chilean reporter shares live footage of an earthquake on the Web.

This is a perfect example of the power of the internet, where we have a country that is very far away and something happens in there and by using the internet you can visually see what is happening there in the exact same moment even though you may be on the total opposite side of the world.
