The defining characteristic is A. Low rainfall

Not all deserts have high temperatures. Similarly, not all have lizards or cacti in them. An example of this would be the Gobi Desert which does not have high temperature.

The answer is A. The main characteristic of a desert is its aridity. Most deserts receive an annual precipitation of ten or fewer inches. Temperatures can't be a defining characteristic of deserts because there are deserts with low temperatures such as those in the polar regions (antarctica). In these regions, water is unavailable because it is completely frozen as ice.

Naya [18.7K]

Venus can come closest to the earth in its orbit and look brightest in our skies.

Venus is extremely bright because it is the nearest planet to Earth and because most of the sunlight that reaches it (about 70%) is reflected back into space by its thick clouds. The brightest object in the sky, Venus is frequently seen within a few hours after sunset or before sunrise.

The Earth and Venus is 38 million kilometres away at the closest point of opposition. This is the planet's closest approach to Earth. Venus has never travelled more than 261 million kilometres from Earth. the fact that the distance between Venus and Earth may change by a staggering 223 million kilometres.

3 reasons why deforestation is bad (written in paragraphs)
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

One of the most unfortunate effects of deforestation is the loss of animal and plant species due to their loss of habitat and homes. Don't complain when u have bird nest in your gutters, most of these animals don't have a choice due to all the cutting down of trees and deforestation.

In addition to the loss of habitat, the lack of trees also allows a greater amount of greenhouse gases to be released into the atmosphere. Green house gases are not good for the environment, so when they cut down trees it doesn't really help the cause.

The effects of deforestation are long lasting and devastating. So many species have gone extinct and it is very unfortunate. There is a very easy solution to this problem and that is plant the trees back or jus quit cutting so many
