<h2>Answer: Atoll</h2>
An atoll is an oceanic coral island, usually in the shape of a circular ring, which may be completely or partially closed. It is also called by this term to the set of several small islands that are part of a coral reef, with an interior lagoon that generally communicates with the sea.
Atolls are formed when a coral reef grows around an oceanic volcanic island, as the island sinks into the ocean and disappears underwater, the growth of the coral increases until reaching the sea level, where the action of the wind and the waves erode it and transform it into sand.
It should be noted that this process can take millions of years.
In this sense, the Maldives, an island country located in the Indian Ocean (southwest of Sri Lanka and a few kilometers from India), has these characteristics.
Its territory is organized in 26 atolls and as a country it is constituted by some 1200 islands.
There were a lot of cities back in the east, and populations were rising. People began moving west and building farms, raising cattle, and other animals. Originally, people arrived in the east by ship (from England etc.), but when people traveled to the west they went by wagon trains. In the south people grew things like cotton, sweet potatoes, tobacco, and sugar, while in the west they grew things like apples trees, wheat, and raised herds.
In the west they build small, compact log cabins, while in the east there were factories, larger brick buildings, and marinas for traded good from other countries.
That is how growth differed in the east cities and the west.
summary;
1. People who traveled to the west started from the east. But those people from the east originally came from England, who then settled in the eastern United States. 2. The mode of transportation to their new lives was different, (ship vs. wagon train.) 3. Log cabins in the west vs. larger bricked buildings in the north east.
Answer:
A drainage divide is a ridge that separates one watershed from another
Explanation:
A drainage divide is the natural feature that is dividing the watersheds, or rather it is a ridge of a mountain or hill that is dividing the waters. The drainage divides determine where the water will go, on which side, in which streams and rivers. Some of them are larger, some are smaller, but they all do the same job. Where the waters from a certain watershed will end up though depends on the topography of the terrain, which can make them the waters move in any direction, or better said from higher to lower places. This occasionally gives weird paths of the waters from some watershed, as the watershed can be very close to a big body of water, but the topography moves it away from it, and it ends up in a body of water hundreds or even thousands km away.
