C. Nanjing --- Former capital of China with rich history and culture; large manufacturing center.

D. Guangzhou --- Third largest city; a port city and manufacturing center.

Explanation:

A- Shenzen is a sub-provincial city in Guangdong province of the People's Republic of China.

Shenzen is located in the southern part of the province and borders the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region to the south. The planned city, due to its status as a special economic zone, is considered a major city for foreign investment and is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. Shenzen is the city with the highest per capita income in China (excluding Hong Kong and Macao). The supporting pillars of the local economy are the electronics and telecommunications industries.

B- Tianjin is an important port city in the People's Republic of China. The total administrative area of the city is 11,943 square kilometers. Tianjin is one of the four direct government cities in China, directly subordinate to the central government in Beijing, and thus has the same status as a province. The city is an industrial center, transportation hub and cultural hub of the region with universities, colleges, museums and monuments.

C- Nanjing is a prefecture-level city in the People's Republic of China. The city was the historic capital of the Ming Dynasty at the end of the 14th and early 15th centuries and the capital of the Republic of China from 1927-1949, making it one of the four major historic capitals of China. Nanjing is a politically cultural center of China with a long history.

D- Guangzhou is a city in the south of the People's Republic of China with 11,114,200 inhabitants in the geographical urban area and 14,043,500 inhabitants in the administrative city area. It is the capital of Guangdong Province and a major industrial and commercial location. The region is also known as the "factory of the world".

How does the Antarctic wildlife lure tourists to come to this region?

iragen [17]

There is no doubt Antarctica is an incredible tourist destination. It is a magnificent and largely uninhabited wilderness with majestic mountains, glaciers, icebergs and abundant wildlife. Its remoteness, inaccessibility and severe climate add an element of adventure to a visit to Antarctica.

Visitor numbers have increased rapidly over the last few decades. During the 1998-99 summer season, over 10,000 tourists visited Antarctica compared with less than 2,000 19 years ago. Tours are organised by private companies and people from all over the world make the journey to see the icy continent.

The trend of increasing visitor numbers has led the Antarctic Treaty countries to establish guidelines and regulations to minimise the impact of these visitors on this remarkable environment.

Discuss the importance of each step in the scientific method. Why do you think scientists utilize this type of experimentation a

kicyunya [14]

Discussion:

The scientific method is a process for experimentation, it is used to explore observation and answer questions. Not all scientist follows the exact same protocol because this adapts to their necessities, but it offers a general series of organized steps to successfully reach a result.

These steps are:

1. Define a question. This step helps to delimit the subject we want to study.

2. Background research. To begin to understand the nature of the phenomenon we will study scientist needs to study the information we already have about it. This will create a base for the next steps, avoiding the investigation to be redundant or to repeat the same mistakes in past researches.

3. Create a hypothesis. Based on the information we acquired we need to create a prediction of what we expect from our experiment. It is an attempt to answer our initial question.

4. Perform an experiment. This step will test the hypothesis you created, it needs to have reproducibility, this means you have to assure the results are not a casualty. It's also important to try one factor at a time and keep the rest of the factors constant so the results are reliable.

5. Analyzing the data. Now that you have the results of your experimentation you'll need to process that information with the help of tables, graphics, models.

6. Interpret the data and draw conclusions. You'll translate your graphical and numerical information into words, this then will be compared against your initial hypothesis in order to reach a conclusion.

7. Publish results. Now that you ended your research you'll need to share the information you collected in scientific journals, conventions, reports. This will help other researched to deepen the research or use it as a base for future researches.

I think this type of experimentation and reasoning is used by scientists to preserve an organized form to share information for the sake of knowledge. Keeping protocols allow them to reproduce results and experiments generated for another colleague, for future researches.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Which of the following would you be LEAST LIKELY to witness in sub-Saharan Africa?

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Women with unlimited and free access to healthcare and medical resources are not something that is a common thing in sub-Saharan Africa.

Explanation:

Sub-Saharan Africa, as a region, stands the worst in the world from pretty much all aspects. There are many reasons for this, from political and religious, to economic and cultural. Something that represents a very big problem is that the majority of the population in this region has little to no access to healthcare and medical resources.

This is especially problematic when it comes to the limited access that the women have to healthcare and medical resources because they are the ones that give birth and take care of the children. When women are in such a situation, the children are as well, and this leads to high death rates among women and young children. The percentage of women and children that die during birth or shortly after is extremely high.
