What was the impact of the Soviet command economy adopted during the mao era
katovenus [111]
It wasn't a Soviet command economy.  After 1960, Mao hated the Russians.

Mao's economic policy focused on agarian self-reliance rather than the creation of centralized industrial ministries.  There was never anything like Gosplan.  The Great Leap Forward was a total disaster, and the Cultural Revolution period was merely bad.

<span>I've seen it argued that the economic policies of Mao quite unintentionally helped Deng Xiaoping.  One big problem with Gorbachev was that he had to fight the central ministries in Moscow, and once he blew them up, the Soviet economy disintegrated.  By contrast, the Chinese economy was never quite as centralized as the Soviet economy, so there weren't huge powerful ministries that Deng Xiaoping had to fight.  Also because Chinese communism was more decentralized, it was easier to turn the state-owned enterprises into market entities.</span>

Match the sphere to activity that occurs there.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

1. Atmosphere ⇒ WESTERLIES

The atmosphere refers to the air surrounding a planet which is a mixture of gases the majority of which in Earth's case are Nitrogen and Oxygen. It is in the atmosphere that the westerlies occur. The westerlies are winds blowing from the west to the east.

2. Biosphere ⇒  GRAZING

The biosphere refers to the world's ecosystem and therefore includes all living and non-living things that the living things rely on for food. This is where grazing occurs as animals feed on plants.

3. Hydrosphere ⇒ TIDES

The hydrosphere refers to the waters of Earth including those on the surface, underground and airborne. Waves occur here on surface water.

4. Lithosphere ⇒ WEATHERING

The lithosphere refers to the surface of the earth that is made of rocks(land). Weathering, which is the process by which rocks are broken down, occurs here.
