Geography

The main difference between geography and geology is that geography is mostly dealing with the physical overall shapes of the land. Geology is a science that is interested in how the land got into the shape it did.

Geology is mostly about what the ground is made up of from a natural perspective. What kind of rocks it contains and how those rocks or layers of rocks got there.

Geography is mostly dealing with mapping the extent of landforms, how far rivers are, how long mountain ranges are, how long the coast line is. This is often from the perspective of people or culture.

Use the diagrams to explain what must be done to add fractions worth different denominators.
artcher [175]
To add fractions with different denominators you must convert the denominators into the lowest common factor. Aka the multiple they all go into. You then times the numerator by what you timsed the denominator by to make sure they both have the same denominator.
Example:

2/5+4/10

They both go into 10.

4/10+4/10= 8/10. 2 became 4 because 5x2=10.

I hope this helped!

You could also simplify 8/10 into 4/5z

Describe the challenges faced by those who wish to change toponyms
matrenka [14]

Answer:

To change a toponym of one place is not so easy to do. This process is usually connected to political changes in different parts of the world.

The toponym change is a sensitive topic, as the name of a place represents the symbol of that place, its identity, and ethnicity. One toponym is related to that place and to people from that place.

Explanation:

Also, when changing the toponym, people should take care of the new name, if it will be in a context of nationalism or internationalism. People connect te name of the place with the location of the place, so it is not easy to adopt a new name, as part of identity is fading.

If the toponym is changing, it has to fit the society, what is the meaning of that new toponym, is it related to the nation, the historical background of the toponym, etc. Those are elements that are influencing the acceptance of a new toponym.
