Geography
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago
6 0

The Transamazonica Highway in Brazil is going to be both, useful and destructive, depending on the point of view.

The biggest advantage of this highway is that it will connect the cities, towns, and villages in the Amazon rain forest with the rest of Brazil, as they now are very isolated and it very hard to travel to any place in the country from there.

The biggest disadvantage is that the highway will be cutting right through the rain forest, and for sure, millions of animals will die on the highway by getting hit by the vehicles driving on it, as the rain forest animals are not aware of the dangers of the roads.

Match the water cycle element in column 1 with the characteristics in column 2.
hjlf

Answer:

Oceans = > 97 percent of Earth's water.

Glaciers = > 70% of Earth's freshwater

River = > Powered by gravity

Groundwater = > 100 times more water than all rivers and lakes

97% of the water on Earth is not drinkable as it is salt-water in oceans.

Of the 3% that is freshwater, Glaciers make up about 70% which means that we don't have access to a significant amount of freshwater either.

Of the available freshwater to us, groundwater comprises 98% which enables it to be 100 times more than all rivers and lakes.

Rivers are powered by gravity in that they flow from areas of higher elevation to areas of lower elevation as gravity pulls it downwards.
