scale

Explanation:

Maps are two dimensional representation of the the three dimensional world. When properly understood we can easily be properly guided and not have problems involving understanding the real life dimensions.

  • A scale shows the representation factor used in moving from the real world to the map projection.

How were the Himalayas formed?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

when two plates collided with each other

Explanation:

The Himalayas are the largest and highest mountain range in the whole world. They have formed as a result of a convergent plate boundary, thus collision of two tectonic plates. The plates that collided and caused their formation were the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate.

As the Indian plate separated from Gondwanaland, it started to move in north-eastern direction. As it was moving, it closed down the Tethys Ocean, and eventually hit the Eurasian continent. Because the two plates are continental, instead of one of them being subducted, they started to press each other. The enormous pressure resulted in lifting up the land around the boundary, and gradually a vast mountain range emerged. This process is still going on today, and this mountain range is still expanding and growing in height.

Elza [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

Contagious diffusion is the type of diffusion that describes how the number of people having same ideas or similar cultural trait increases. It is a process by which ideas or a particular culture is spread through population instead o them being actually carried by people to various places. This type of diffusion does not require the people to be relocated from their original places which makes it different from the other types of diffusion.
