Through Pangea when Asia and the North American continent was connected!
Answer:
Option (A)
Explanation:
The infiltration process refers to the downward percolation of water through the soils and gets mixed up with the groundwater. This plays an important role in the water cycle. This water percolation depends upon the following factors, such as-
(1) Rate of precipitation
(2) Type of soil
(3) vegetation cover
(4) Slope of the land surface
(5) Porosity and permeability of the soil (rock).
The rate of infiltration increases with the increasing vegetation cover in that particular area. The plants absorb the water by their roots during rainfall, and this water can flow towards the deeper parts of the roots. The excess water is then allowed to pass through the interconnected pores within the soil (rock), and eventually gets added to the groundwater.
Thus, the presence of dense vegetation in an area favors the rate of the infiltration process.
Hence, the correct answer is option (A).
B. Tsunamis
This is because the ring of fire is referring to Volcanoes, and the only thing volcanoes can cause on that list is Tsunamis.
Answer:
Caucasus Mountain Range or Caucasus Mountains is between the black and caspian seas.
Explanation:
This mountain is a great barrier that extends for 750 miles and its tops exceed 4500 meters. It is located <u>between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
</u>
It has two mountain ranges: the Great Caucasus, which is the largest mountain range and extends for 1200 km, and the Lesser Caucasus which is 600 km long.
This great mountain range was <u>created by the clash between the Arab plate and the Eurasian plate</u> approximately 28 million years ago. Due to the constant movement of plates,<u> it is a region prone to continuous strong earthquakes</u> although it does not have volcanic activity despite the existence of some stratovolcanoes.
