Answer: B - help map the ocean floor
Explanation: GPS which is an acronym for Global Positioning System is a global satellite based location and navigation system owned by the US Government. It was first used by the US Air Force in 1978. It's main purpose is to show a GPS user location and time information from anywhere on earth, where there is an unobstructed line of sight from the precise location to 4 or more GPS satellites. GPS is commonly used on land (obviously through every day use like when you use an uber) and in the air (pilots use GPS signals when they fly).
GPS can be used to track pets if there's a tracking device on their collars.
GPS is also used in taxis and can be used to track a cab after a hurricane.
Ordinary people can use GPS to collect information for scientists - an example of this would be taking a new undefined route on Google maps therefore adding to their archive of known routes/areas.
However GPS signals cannot penetrate water - sea water especially. Hence the answer is B
Answer:
Option (3)
Explanation:
Mid-oceanic ridges are the regions along which two distinct plates move away from one another. This type of plate boundary is known as the divergent plate boundary.
Whereas a rise occurs along a divergent plate boundary and is mostly associated with the region of hot-spots, where the magma is forced to rise up forming a gently steeper underwater highland area.
Both these features occur in a divergent plate boundary and plays an important role in pushing the continents apart. So we can conclude that the rises are mostly associated with the region of hot-spots, and ridges are formed due to the seafloor spreading at divergent plate boundaries.
Hence, the correct answer is option (3).
Answer:
Farming/rotational grazing
Explanation:
Right, so it's 9pm where I'm at right now and I'm exhausted from writing all day, so this answer's gonna be really brief. I hope you don't mind and that it's at least somewhat helpful.
Global warming is just a side effect of a much larger problem, which is climate change. Climate change is when some areas get hotter and some areas colder because of the disrupted weather patterns. It can't be stopped, because the climate will fluctuate over time. What can be changed is how extreme these changes are. Today human beings are not the cause of climate change, but we are contributing to it from all the gases we release into the air.
An unexpected - but possible - solution could lie in effective horticulture. Search up "Scott Strough Red Baron Project".
What Mr. Strough's project aims to do essentially is grow plants and nurture soil in such a way that carbon can be sucked from the atmosphere. This will make healthier soil and healthier crops, while also mitigating the effects of climate change, solving two problems at once. That's the basic gist of it.
Hope this answer helps you. Sorry I couldn't make it longer.

neap tides have the smallest range in occur when the Earth the Moon and the sun from a 90 degree angle
Water supply living space and environmental condition are greatly affected by a natural disaster which in result affect the carrying capacity of an area. It can affect the ability of an environment to sustain animal or plant populations.
