Answer:
The stream will flow fastest between 2 and 3.
Explanation:
On this map, we can see two basic elements, one being the contour lines, and the other being the color with which a stream is presented. The contour lines are giving us a good representation of the relief and where it is steeper and where it is less steep. Basically, where the contour lines are closer to each other, we have a steeper relief, and when the contour lines are further away, the relief is less steep.
The water moves under the influence of gravity, so downward. Where the steepness is the greatest, the gravity influences it the most, so it moves faster, while where the steepness is smaller, the gravity influences it less, so it moves slower. On this map, the contour lines are closest to each other between points 2 and 3, meaning it is the steepest part of the relief, and it is the place where the stream flows the fastest.
Asia is called a subcontinent because it is very large land and it is separated from other countries by water.
Hi there
Facts about the Great Plains
1) They support one of the lowest population densities in the United States
2) Occupy around 500,000 miles of west-central North America
3) Millions of American bison roamed the Great Plains before their near-extermination by market hunters in the late 1800s
4) Through dedicated conservation efforts, bison have made an impressive comeback both on public and private lands.
5) Along wildlife other than bison were pronghorn, elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, etc.
6) Cast in the rainshadow of the Rockies, the Great Plains harbor the greatest remaining expanses of prairie, a highly-endangered habitat, in the country.
7) While many presume the Great Plains to be relentlessly level, the province actually contains much topographic variety.
8) There are island mountain ranges, especially on the Missouri Plateau---the Bears Paw Mountains, the Sweetgrass Hills, the Black Hills, for example.
9) The Great Plains of interior North America constitute one of the largest grassland expanses in the world
10) For thousands of years, human cultures as varied as the Kiowa, the Blackfeet, the Spanish and the Americans have explored, hunted, settled and fought over these vast spaces.
Earth's green house effects is directly related to the carbon cycle.
carbon is known as the building block of life and also a form of stored energy. When fossil fuels such as coal and oil products are burned for energy, carbon dioxide is released . Carbon compounds move in a cycle through plants and animals, the air, ocean and earth.
Carbon that is in the air is the one that contributes to the greenhouse effect. Activities of man especially the burning of fossil fuels for energy is thought to release a lot of carbon dioxide in the air significantly contributing to the greenhouse effect.
