Answer: Unconformity is the procedure between two rocks having a contact. It is usually observed that upper unit of rock is younger in nature compared to the lower unit of rock.

Explanation: There are different types of unconformities such as:

  • Disconformities- it is a uncoformity which has a parallel nature along with the rocks in the sedimentary form during the phase of erosion
  • Non-conformities - it is a unconformity that creates the separation between the sedimentary rocks and other rocks like igneous rocks. They usually display the erosion that has occurred long time back.

Describe the global inequality in the supply and consumption of either food or water or energy
dimulka [17.4K]
We could separate this region into developed nations (such as north west America, eastern Asia , and wester europe)  and non-developed nations (such as most region in africa, some regions in middle east and some region in eastern europe)

The consumption of food, water and energy in developed nations is clearly in abundance. If you go to any trash can in developed nations, you will see many residual food that  people would throw simply because they do not want it anymore.
In non-developed nations on the other hand, most people would be desperate to obtain all of those things. Even the food that being thrown out by people in developed nation will be a luxury for them.
