<h2>Answer:</h2>

The given statement on habitats in South East Asia is true.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Indonesia has a population of over 184 million people, and it is considered a fifth county in the universe with that much population. With more than 13,700 islands it is covered with 70% seawater and 195 million hectares of land. The most populated city is Java, with a population of 61% which makes it susceptible to resource exploitation.  

While the villagers rely on agriculture, population increase is also a concern for Indonesia. There has been transmigration to other cities which lead to fights with the natives. Transmigration is done to ease overpopulation, however, it threatens the countries forest. Increase in population will increase the exploitation of resources, and the Indonesian islands account for 10% of the world's rain forest.

What would happen if we did not use time zones
arsen [322]

Answer:

The world would operate in a very confusing manner without timezones.

The planet itself didn't care about timezones, as they are a human invention. But because the Earth is generally known to be spherical, that means all humans are scattered across it without a uniform method of keeping everyone in sync, which would wreak havoc on international shipping and travel. People wouldn't know what you mean when you say that you'd all Skype call with each other by 10pm, and planes coming in at 5am would have no context on what that time means, because there are no standards for time anymore.
