Converging plate boundaries. continent to continent plate boundary converging if you want to be more specific.
to converge means to bring something together, that's how I always remembered. Transform boundaries move side to side, and are the reason for mainly fault lines, such as the San Andreas Fault in California. All plate boundaries do occur at subduction zones.
The percentage of languages that are dying out in Asia is only around 20% from the total number of languages dying out in the world, despite it having around 60% of the global population is due to two reasons:
- <em>Number of languages;</em>
Asia, even though it has around 60% of the world's population, it only has around one third of the languages spoken in the world, so automatically there's a big disproportion between the number of population and number of languages, thus giving it a smaller percentage of languages dying out.
- <em>Keeping the tradition;</em>
Lots of Asian nations are not very willing to let their traditional language to die out and continue to speak it. Apart from the traditional point of view, another reason is that Asia has global economic powers, so learning languages like the English or Spanish are not of great benefit in general, so the pressure is much lesser.
Answer:
Atmospheric pressure differs in different parts of the world.
Explanation:
- This is because atmospheric pressure depends on the height of a particular location on earth.
- A number of locations on the earth are at sea level. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.7 pounds per square inch.
- At higher levels (altitudes) the atmospheric pressure is lower since higher places have got less air pushing downwards compared to lower altitudes which have more air pushing down and hence, high atmospheric pressure.
