<h2>
Answer: C. It's an area that's an optimal distance from the sun for potentially supporting life.</h2>
The Goldilocks zone, also called Habitable Zone, refers to the region in the space where a planet is located at a distance from its star, which is ideal for living conditions.
For this to be possible, the incident luminosity and the radiation flow on the surface of the planet must be sufficient to maintain the adequate temperature so that water can exist in liquid form (a fundamental requirement for life).
In fact, it is stated that the Earth is in the habitable zone of the solar system and that is why it is capable of housing life.
Answer:
Explanation:
Desertification:
The process of the land degradation in arid , semi - arid , and sub - humid areas because of the factors , human activities , climatic variations .
This process lead to persistent degradation of the dry land and ecosystem because of some variation in climate and man - made activities .
The major cause of Desertification are -
1. Overpopulation
2. Overgrazing
3. Deforestation
4. Unsustainable agriculture techniques
5. Climate change
6. Stripping of land resources .
7. Overgrazing of the land by the cattle and wild stock.
Florida has alot of air pockets underneath the ground. I've watched a documentary on the weather channel before. Air pockets below the ground slowly erode and eventually open up at the top layer of the ground, causing the earth to open up.
Answer:
The Niger River will be heavily exploited in the future so that it helps the economies in people in the region.
Explanation:
Most of the big rivers around the world are heavily exploited. They have huge dams built on them for multiple purposes, canals that connect places that don't come out on the rivers, transportation, and travel are well organized and on a high scale. The Niger River though is not that exploited despite having huge potential, but that will change in the near future for sure.
This river goes a long way in the interior of Western Africa and the outskirts of Central Africa. It can support boats, and it is the major factor that supports agriculture. Considering that this part of the world is in a dire situation but develops quickly, the Niger River will be used for sure. Huge dams will be made, and the water will be used for the production of electric power to feed the economies, but also for irrigation as the region is mostly semi-arid, for drinking, and for the industry. In order to boost the economy and help in the development of the large urban areas, canals will be made to the ones that are not located at the river's banks. Transportation through the river's waters will skyrocket as it will be fast, safe, and cheap.
Those are all plateaus, though you could figure this out with elimination, too. Peninsulas are land forms with 3 sides water, mountains generally form in mountain ranges, and usually deserts are larger than the two small cells on the right side.
