Explain the reason for having an Equator and a Prime Meridian. How do these two lines help us to navigate our world?

Geography

EleoNora [17]3 years ago

<span>The equator is 0 degree latitude. This imaginary line, which runs through parts of South America, Africa, and Asia, is officially the halfway point between the North Pole and the South Pole.</span>

<span>The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude. This imaginary line runs through the United Kingdom, France, Spain, western Africa, and Antarctica.</span>

By using the equator and prime meridian, we can divide the world into four hemispheres, north, south, east, and west. For instance, the United States is in the Western Hemisphere (because it is west of the prime meridian) and also in the Northern Hemisphere (because it is north of the equator).

<span>These lines are merely for the identification of where things are on a map or a globe.</span>

Why does the equatorward bending of height contours for the 500 mb level imply the presence of a trough?
sertanlavr [38]

The equatorward bending of height contours for the 500 mb level imply the presence of a trough because  this represents a region of overall lower heights. A valley and a trough are hence equivalent in the upper air flow.

A trough is a linear structural depression with lateral length that occurs in geology. A trough can be a small basin or a natural rift, albeit it is lower than a trench. At the edge of tectonic plates, these landforms frequently form.

Trough, an extended depression in the seafloor that differs from oceanic trenches in that it is shallower, shorter, narrower, and topographically more mild. The Papuan Trough's maximum depth is 2,300 m (7,500 feet), while the Banda Trough's maximum depth is 7,440 m.

<em></em>

36. The product of two positive numbers is greater than either number = TRUE

37. The difference between two integers is less than either integer = TRUE but only of positive integers.

Let's say we have 2+3. That equals 5, which is higher then both 2 and 3 ( ofc ).

What do you predict is happening to the lion population between 1960 and 1975?
defon

Answer:

this is how many things happened during that time... The Sixties dominated by the Vietnam War, Civil Rights Protests, the 60s also the assassinations of US President John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. I would predict that many lions died during that time especially during the Cuban Missile Crisis, but I also predict that nothing severe happened to them because they are still one of the most popular animals...

Explanation: hope this helped.
