Answer:  Mikhail Gorbachev

Explanation:

In March 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev proposed policies of<em> perestroika </em>(restructuring) and <em>glasnost </em>(openness) in the Soviet Union.  These seemed like policies that leaned in the direction of Western ways of economics and politics.  <em>Perestroika </em>meant allowing some measure of private enterprise in the Soviet Union.  <em>Glasnost </em>meant allowing a bit of freedom in regard to speech and publication.   But don't get the idea that Gorbachev was trying to get rid of the Soviet communist system.  He actually was trying to prop it up and preserve it, because it was starting to have many problems sustaining itself.  But in the end, opening things up a bit with <em>perestroik</em>a and <em>glasnost </em>policies only pushed the USSR further in the direction of shedding the communist model under which it had lived for so long.

6. Why does the north-east coast of Canada remain icebound during the winter
kow [346]

The North East coast of Canada remains icebound during winter

because of forcing of the air. As the North East coast of Canada is

located near to Northern poles and is nearer to sea hence the ports of

eastern coast of Canada freezes and the temperature in that area

becomes less than zero degree during the winter time.

Ocean currents are horizontal continuous flow of water from one place

to other . There are two types of ocean currents warm and cold flowing

along the coastline which will have an impact on climate. Thus these

waters are cold and tend to freeze up the ports early in winters.
