Geography

Answer:

New Guinea

Explanation:

The eastern half of the New Guinea island is a sovereign state. The name of the sovereign state is Papua New Guinea. Papua New Guinea is a country that falls in the category of the least developed countries in the world. It is also the country where there's one of the highest percentages of population that still lives like thousands of years ago in the dense tropical rainforests. It is a country that is rich in natural resources, but it is not the people from Papua New Guinea that see the benefit of them, but instead the international corporations. Initially, the whole island of New Guinea was supposed to be one country, the country of Papua New Guinea, but Indonesia had a military campaign and invaded the western half of the island and kept it, with the international community weirdly being totally silent about it. Also, the people that got under the rule of Indonesia were massacred, killed without any reason, tortured, lost most of their rights etc.

Can someone tell me what plains are? (the landform) and just a bunch of facts about plains.
Marizza181 [45]

Answer: In geography, a plain is a flat, sweeping landmass that generally does not change much in elevation. Plains occur as lowlands along valleys or on the doorsteps of mountains, as coastal plains, and as plateaus or uplands.

In a valley, a plain is enclosed on two sides, but in other cases a plain may be delineated by a complete or partial ring of hills, by mountains, or by cliffs. Where a geological region contains more than one plain, they may be connected by a pass (sometimes termed a gap). Coastal plains would mostly rise from sea level until they run into elevated features such as mountains or plateaus.

Plains are one of the major landforms on earth, where they are present on all continents, and would cover more than one-third of the world's land area. Plains may have been formed from flowing lava, deposited by water, ice, wind, or formed by erosion by these agents from hills and mountains. Plains would generally be under the grassland (temperate or subtropical), steppe (semi-arid), savannah (tropical) or tundra (polar) biomes. In a few instances, deserts and rainforests can also be plains.

Plains in many areas are important for agriculture because where the soils were deposited as sediments they may be deep and fertile, and the flatness facilitates mechanization of crop production; or because they support grasslands which provide good grazing for livestock.

labwork [276]

The correct answer is - D. all of the above.

In essence, spatial terms in geography refers to the describing of things that are relating to areas.

So population, trade flows, cities and towns, can all be observed as things in an area. Population can be seen area by area, so that the density, ethnicity, education etc can be seen and compared between areas. The trade flows usually are divided into trade zones, or trade areas, and cities and towns all belong to a certain area.
