Geography
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Options (1), (3), (4) and (5)

Explanation:

The deep ocean water refers to the water that is present at the bottom of the ocean. This deep water is highly dense, and are rich in essential nutrients including oxygen. Sunlight cannot penetrate into the deeper layer, as a result of which these water remains much colder and moves at a much slower rate in comparison to the surface waves. These deep ocean currents are generated by the density differences due to two factors namely, temperature and salinity.

These currents are moved from the equatorial region to the poles and again comes back from the poles to the equator, forming a circular pattern. This circulation of water is responsible for the various climatic conditions that occur at different places.

Thus, the correct answers are mentioned above.

Why is the lithosphere the most important component of our environment.
Nitella [24]

The lithosphere is the outermost sphere of the solid Earth, consisting of the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The lithosphere is largely important because it is the area that the biosphere (the living things on earth) inhabit and live upon.

If it weren't for the tectonic plates of the lithosphere there would be no change on Earth. Tectonic plates shift due to convection currents lower down in the mantle, and this can cause the formation of mountains, the eruption of volcanoes, and earthquakes. While this can be devastating in the short-run, long term benefits are the formation of new plant life, the creation of new habitats and encouraging adaptation.  

It is also the source of almost all of our resources, and is rich in elements like iron, aluminium, calcium, copper and magnesium, which humans have used for tools and machinery for millennia.  

When the biosphere interacts with the lithosphere, organic compounds can become buried in the crust, and dug up as oil, coal or natural gas that we can use for fuels.  

In combination with the atmosphere and hydrosphere (water), it provides a stable source of nutrients for botanical life, which produce glucose that higher organisms use for sustenance.

What stage of genocide is "Propaganda surfaces: “Armenians are siding with the Turkish enemy (Russia)”. Intermarrying is forbidd
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

This is the second stage of genocide.

Explanation:

Once the first stage went on well, the second stage was waiting for implementation. Now that there was a clear distinction between the Turkish and Armenians in the eyes of the public, the government started with propaganda, using symbolization to vilify the Armenians and to give reason to the Turkish population to dislike or hate them.

This was done by spreading propaganda that the Armenians in Turkey are siding with Russia. Russia has been the biggest Turkish enemy for several centuries, so this immediately caused fear, insecurity, panic, and aggressive behavior from the Turkish population. In order to stop the spreading of Russia's influence through the Armenians, intermarrying became forbidden.
