Explanation:
Answer:
Orange Groves are affected by the climate of the region. In the US, states such as Florida and Georgia are the biggest orange producers because of their climate. Also, oranges need good soil to grow, so dry soils are not suitable for growing oranges.
Nurseries are more "human controlled" than orange groves. A big human factor that plays a role in growing the food properly is temperature. If the temperature is too hot or cold, the plants may not grow properly and might even die. Also, many nurseries can control the humidity inside the nursery. Some plants require specific humidities to grow- and are vulnerable to a change in humidity.
Coffee plants require moist soil to be grown well. Thus, if the soil is too dry, the coffee plant may die. In other words, a coffee plant would grow much better in a farm, than a desert. Also, Coffee Plants require a high temperature, and that is why most of the world's coffee is grown in places like Africa and South America as they have hotter temperatures.

Its not man made like the others
Answer:
1 : 25,000 is the largest scale.
Explanation:
1 cm represents 2 km; is not correct because this is actually the smallest of the scales presented, meaning that 1 cm on the map is equal to 200,000 cm on the ground.
1 : 50,000; is not correct because this is the second-largest scale from the options.
1 : 25,000; is correct because it is the largest scale, with 1 cm on the map representing 25,000 cm on the ground. The smaller the scale, the larger it is.
1 : 100,000; is not correct because it is the third-largest, with 1 cm on the map representing 100,000 cm on the ground.
Answer:
<u>1. c. Peruvian coast, 2. c. Asia, 3. c. Paris, 4. Andes</u>
Explanation:
- Peru is located on the western coast of South America and faces the pacific ocean and located in the southern hemisphere it shares the longest border with brazil. Having a total area of 1,285,215.6 km square.
- Due to the latitude, mountain ranges and topography variations and the two oceanic currents like the Humboldt and El Niño which bring a diverse tropical climate of wt and dry spells to this region thus experiences a drought type conditions of the coasts of Peru.
- Places on earth most likely to encounter the trade winds are in Asia as these winds are moving in an east to west direction following the earth equatorial region, i.e 30 degrees North and South.
- To get the shortest flight from Los Angles to Moscow the plane would have to land in Paris as to refuel and thus making it the shortest flight by less than half-hour.
- Andes mountain runs parallel through the south American north to south borders.
