I believe the answer is Tropical monsoon climate/tropical wet and dry.
Answer:
1. oceanic-oceanic boundaries
2. oceanic-continental boundaries
3. continental-continental boundaries
Explanation:
The three types of plate convergence are:
1. oceanic-oceanic boundaries: this occurs when two oceanic plates clash; thereby the heavier plate forms below the lighter plate resulting in dark, heavy, basaltic volcanic islands.
2. oceanic-continental boundaries: this occurs when there is a collision between oceanic and continental plates, resulting in the downward movement of oceanic plate, while the volcanic arc rises on land
3. continental-continental boundaries: this occurs due to the massive crust of slabs clashing against each other. Thereby leading to big mountains forming from folded, faulted, and thickened convergent boundaries
Answer:
C. High heat capacity
Explanation:
Water helps maintain temperature of communities close to it. It does this by absorbing heat emanating from the communities around the water bodies such as rivers and seas in a process known as convection current. In exchange for absorbing the heat from the land, the river or sea supplies the land with cool sea breeze. This exchange will help maintain temperature at a close range.
Answer:
The statement is true. Las Vegas, Nevada, has seen a great increase in the demand for water since it is one of the fastest growing regions in the U.S.
Explanation:
Las Vegas is the most populous and most densely populated city in the state of Nevada. It is located in the south of the state, in Clark County.
According to the 2010 national census, the city itself has 583,756 inhabitants, and its metropolitan region has about 1.9 million inhabitants. It is the 30th most populous city in the United States and is considered to be the fastest growing city in all of North America.
Population growth was especially marked in the 1990s, when the population went from a little over 200,000 people to more than 500,000. This brought a consequent lack of resources due to the desert location of the city, which was solved only with investment in infrastructure by the state government.
