Because of the crazy large population.
Answer:
Mountain, Canyon, Delta
Explanation:
The uppermost box would be mountain.
The box below that one would be canyon.
And the farthermost box to the right would be delta.
If you thought about it, changing those circles to make them 3D is like stacking layers on top as they get smaller, this would form something that looks like a mountain.
Water typically runs through a canyon and the lines appear to be separating for the water.
Deltas are wetlands that form from rivers emptying their water into another body of water. If you were to look up an image of a delta that would make it easier to understand, it also looks like what the image provided is trying to demonstrate.
In a region that has a humid continental climate, the animals and plants living there should have some specific adaptations in order for them to survive without any bigger problem in the environment.
The animals have thicker fur which is also waterproof, in order to keep them warm, and to not allow that they are wet and heavy because of the common rains. They also tend to develop and even thicker winter coat in order for them to survive the cold snowy winters.
The plants tend to shed their leafs in the autumn as they put themselves in a hibernation mode for the cold winter, and then grow them again in the spring for the vegetative season in the coming months. They tend to be plants that manage to consume large amounts of water, but also can restrict the amount of water, as the evaporation is not as high in this parts, so they have to limit the water in order to not over-saturate themselves.
Answer:
A carbon tax aims to make individuals and firms pay the full social cost of carbon pollution. In theory, the tax will reduce pollution and encourage more environmentally friendly alternatives. However, critics argue a tax on carbon will increase costs for business and reduce levels of investment and economic growth.

The purpose of a carbon tax
The purpose of a carbon tax is to internalise this externality. What this means is that the final price of the good should include the external costs and not just the private cost. It is similar to the ‘polluter pays principle.‘ – which was incorporated into international law at the 1992 Rio Summit. It simply means those who cause environmental costs should be made to pay the full social cost of their actions.

This diagram shows that in a free market (without any tax), we get overconsumption (Q1) of carbon, leading to a welfare loss to society.
