Answer:

perimeter/drainage divide

Explanation:

The drainage basin of a stream represent an area of land from which the water is flowing toward the stream. This area has its own natural boundaries, which are usually highlands that alleviate themselves from the three sides relative to the stream which is located in the lowest part of the area.

The boundaries are represented with highland usually, as mentioned, running along ridges, mountains or hills. The water that falls into the naturally enclosed area all flows down toward a single stream directly, or to several streams, and than into the largest, central stream in the drainage basin.

Some of the drainage basins are very small, only occupying few square km, while some are enormous are larger that the majority of the countries in the world.

Mountains and high places such as cliffs in front of oceans could be good for defense because you have the high ground and an easier to attack ships.
Ground that is very fertile and has enough access to sun could prove very good to plant crops and make farms.
Rivers and lakes could come off of a mountain so being on lower ground could be good to provide water for yourselves and your crops or animals that are used for food.
Idaho had good soil for potatoes and farming. Towns with lakes and hills would be good for water and farming and life with a family in general.

Select the reasons why most professional telescopes are reflectors rather than refractors.
Julli [10]

Answer:

d). It is easier to make a large reflecting telescope than a large refracting telescope.

f). A reflector can collect more light than a refractor.

Explanation:

A telescope is a device that is used to observe distant objects by the use of lenses and mirrors. It is also used to observe different distant objects by their reflection, absorption, emission or the reflection of the electromagnetic radiations.

Most of the professional telescopes are reflectors because :

1. The reflected telescope is able to receive more of the light when it reflects all the light falling on surface. And it is easier for making a large telescope rather then making large lenses for the refracting telescope. So it is easier to make large reflecting telescope than a large refracting telescope.

2. A reflected telescope receives all the wavelength of the light and it reflects all the light falling on the surfaces where it is refracted telescope that contains lenses cannot absorbs all the light and causes the chromatic aberration.
