Answer:C) either runs off to form rivers or filters down into underground aquifers

Explanation:Precipitation is any form of moisture which falls to the earth. This includes rain, snow, hail and sleet. Precipitation occurs when water vapour cools. When the air reaches saturation point (also known as condensation point and dew point) the water vapour condenses and forms tiny droplets of water.

In meteorology, precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that falls under gravity from clouds. The main forms of precipitation include drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, ice pellets, graupel and hail. ... Short, intense periods of rain in scattered locations are called "showers."

Whats an advantage of using a 1:1000 scale on a map
xeze [42]

Answer:

Well think about the size of our world. Its pretty big and it would be really hard to map something out the size of the world. Using a scale like this 1:1000 because it shows 1 for every 1000 miles or kilometers. Or even greater units of measurement, less spaced and yet still an accurate representation. If put through the backed scaled equation, you would get the actual size jsut by multiplying the number in this case 1 or more by 1000 and you’d get the exact measurements.

If two places on the ground that are 25° 35'N and 25° 30'N are shown 8 cm a part on a given map, what is the scale of the map?​
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Explanation:Do you live in a city, or in a small town? Or do

you live on a farm or a ranch? Has your family

lived there a long time or a short time? How does

living where you do affect the way you live? For

example, do you need special clothes in the winter? Is your favorite food grown nearby, or is it

brought in from far away?

All these questions have to do with geography.

Geography is the study of our home—the earth—

and how our lives are affected by it. Almost every

detail of our lives is affected by geography. The

clothes we wear, the food we eat, the things we do

for fun, and the kinds of homes in which we live

are all connected to geography.
