Explosions from composite volcanoes occur as a result of gas buildup within them. Shield volcanoes also may erupt explosively if water accumulates inside their vents.
Answer:
Poor planning, and disease
Explanation:
The obstacles that the French faced while attempting to build a canal across Panama were diseases and poor planning. The French dealt with constant outbreaks of malaria and yellow fever, which slowed construction and caused the deaths of thousands of workers. The French also did not take into consideration the geographical differences between the Suez Canal region and the Panama region. The French had succeeded in building a canal at sea level in Egypt, and they mistakenly thought a similar design would work in Panama. However, the difference in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean sea levels, as well as the difference in elevation of the Panamanian terrain, prevented them from building a sea-level canal. The United States knew about these two problems when they undertook the project. They took preventative measures by reducing the disease-spreading mosquito population and using a canal-lock system to overcome the elevation obstacle in Panama.
The Sahel is located in Africa. It is the region in Africa that transitions from the Sahara to the Sudanian Savanna.

Answer:
A total number of people within a continent
Explanation:
The population growth in a particular place is reflective of how the population is changing positively over a period of time.
It is simply the change in population with with time.
- The total population through a given time frame and within a geography is very important for population studies.
- The population growth formula is given as:
P = P₀ eᵇⁿ
P is the total population
P₀ is the starting population
b is the growth rate
n is the time
In the 1800s, westward expansion brought settlers and their livestock into direct contact with native predator and prey species. Much of the wolves’ prey base was destroyed as agriculture flourished. With the prey base removed, wolves began to prey on domestic stock, which resulted in humans eliminating wolves from most of their historical range. Predator control, including poisoning, was practiced here in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Other predators such as bears, cougars, and coyotes were also killed to protect livestock and “more desirable” wildlife species, such as deer and elk.
