Name two geographic obstacles and one political obstacle that stood in the way of the construction of the Panama Canal.

Answer: The two geographic obstacles that stood in the way of the construction of the Panama Canal was that Panama was very mountainous, and there were a lot of mud slides. One political obstacle was that Panama was part of Colombia. The united states had to negotiate with Colombia before Panama became independent. Engineers had to build a dam, design and build locks, and remove huge amounts of earth and rock in order to overcome the geographical obstacles.

I hope it helps, Regards.

Qual a densidade demográfica média da europa? Ela e alta ou baixa?
valentina_108 [34]

The population density of Europe, as a whole, is 143 people per square mile. This makes Europe the second most densely populated continent in the world, with the first place being occupied bu Asia, so we can say that Europe is a densely populated continent as a whole.

It has to be taken in notice that Europe is a continent that has an aging population, the fertility rate is very low, and the life expectancy is high. Interestingly enough, even though there's only three countries in the whole continent that have a positive fertility rate, the population of the continent is still growing, slowly, by 0.3% annually, but it is growing. The growth is mainly because of the migrants, mainly from the Middle East and Africa, and apart from increasing the number of the population with their entry, they also tend to have a high fertility rate.

These rocks undergoes no chemical weathering but exhibit very low mechanical or physical weathering may occur. Therefore, hardness is the property which can be used to identify the origin of an igneous rock.
