Cause there are high populations, and little land mass, meaning the population is more concentrated and dense
The statement that weathering occurs as a result of direct contact with the atmosphere is true. Weathering is a process by which rocks are broken down by direct contact with the atmosphere which is caused by exposure to heat, ice, and elements in the atmosphere. Two type of weathering are: Physical and Chemical weathering.Physical weathering occurs when rocks, soil, or minerals are broken down through mechanical means.Chemical weathering occurs when rocks, soil, or minerals are broken down through reactions with chemicals that are in the air or are biologically introduced.
True. At a steeper gradient the velocity of the river is greater, combined with more discharge in the river the ability of the river to transport load increases as it has more energy.
Because it is surrounded by land that is a lot flatter
