<h2>Answer: False</h2>

The longest river in the world in is the Amazon, located in South America, with a length of 6800 kilometers, compared to 6695 of the Nile River.

It is understandable that for a long time it was believed that it was the Nile. However, a few years ago the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics published an investigation claiming that the Amazon is the longest river in the world.

On the other hand, the Sahara Desert itself is the largest (warm) desert in the world, <u>but</u> the Antartic Desert occupies the first place with an area of ​​13,829,430km^{2} compared to 9,065,253 km^{2} of the Sahara.

Taking into account that the definition of desert is a place with very little or no rainfall in the year.

<h2>Therefore this is false.</h2>

Which statement best describes the theory of plate tectonics?
Alina [70]

Answer:

Sections of Earth's continents are in slow, constant movement.

Explanation:

Earth's crust is broken up and divided into numerous pieces. These pieces are called tectonic plates and they come in various shapes and sizes. The tectonic plates can consist predominantly of continental crust or predominantly of oceanic crust, and there isn't a single plate that is exclusively made out just from one type of crust.

The reason why Earth's crust is broken apart is the force that comes from the convection currents from the mantle below it. Not just that the convection currents break up the crust, but they also push it in a certain direction. By doing so, the convection currents manage to move the tectonic plates on Earth's surface, and even though this is a slow movement, it has huge effects.

Need help on number 2
Norma-Jean [14]
This is primarily because the sun heats the earth's surface unevenly. As heat is trans- ferred to the air, we get regions of warm and cool air which can turn into regions of low and high pressure. This difference in pres- sure makes a force that causes the wind to blow.

So I would say the rising of warm air and the falling of cool air.
