Answer:

Ukraine and Germany

Explanation:

Spiders may seem like a more specific Halloween ornament, but eight-legged creatures actually play an important role in other parties. We have discovered the tradition of "Christmas spiders."

It is based on a European folk tale that has been attributed to several countries, often Ukraine and Germany. In a version of the Christmas spider story, a widowed mother and her children were too poor to decorate their Christmas tree, and friendly spiders wove elaborate nets on a fir tree. When the family woke up on Christmas morning, they opened the curtains and sunlight illuminated the cobwebs, turning them into silver and gold (sometimes it is said to be the origin of the garlands). The family had good fortune thereafter. Other versions affirm that it was Santa Claus or Jesus himself who transformed the networks so that they did not bother the mother.

It is likely that the legend is related to the idea that spiders give good luck. Whatever the real reason, according to various sources, Ukrainians decorate their Christmas trees with spider-shaped ornaments (often made of precious stones) to this day

Answer:

Tides have a cyclic time of 12hr and twice daily.

Explanation:

  • Based on the question of high and low tide, Boston experiencing a neap tide or spring tide on 26 May that is at the time of 1.15AM is of 10.8 in height and at 1.41PM its 10.3 in height, which means that there is a rise in sea levels at the morning and evening hours once due to moon and other due to Coriolis force on body of water.  
  • The low tide at 7.28 AM has a height of  -0.4 and -0.5 at 7.54. thus Boston experiences a decrease in heights of the tide. Thus there exist some variations within the tidal ranges varying magnitudes and velocities.

butalik [34]

Answer:

Tropical forest

Explanation:

The tropical forest is an ecological community that is characterized with temperatures throughout all of the year, as well as high amount of precipitation and humidity. These ecological communities are located at the equator and near the equator, thus on the very low latitudes. They are home to more than half of the animal and plant species on planet Earth. They have the highest concentrations of living organisms, having also the highest diversification on the planet. The tropical forests are fascinating in every possible way, and it is a shame that the research in them is still largely descriptive, because the terrain and the conditions are extremely tough for any other method to be put in practice.
