Africa has a large extent of tropical seasonal forests and savannas; a band runs through sub-saharan Africa and runs down the eastern coast with another band extending across the continent south of the tropical rainforest. There are extensive areas of these biomes in India, southeast Asia, and northern Australia as well.
The mesosphere is a layer of the atmosphere that measures temperature.
Answer:
absolute location
Explanation:
The latitude and longitude coordinates are describing a place's absolute location. The latitude lines are horizontal lines, parallel to each other, and they move north and south from the Equator. The longitude lines are vertical lines, running from north to south, connecting with each other at the poles, and distancing from each other at the lower latitudes. When all these lines are applied on a map, they can give us information about any place in the world as to what its absolute location is. This is done by using the values of the latitude and longitude. In order to be more precise, apart from degrees, there are also minutes, and seconds, so that the location can be exactly the same, not just approximate to it.
<u>Answer:</u>
The foreign policy of the United States should in the next ten years focus on the protection of the United states, it's citizens and it's allies from it's opposition. It should make sure of having continuous access to the international resources and markets for the further production and distribution of it's goods and services.
The foreign policy in the future should focus on the preservation of the power of the United States in the world and also for protection of the human rights and democracy and world peace.
From almost the creation of the first true maps of the Earth, people started seeing how continents would be able to fit together. In particular, people noticed that South America fits almost exactly into Africa.
You should be aware that while world maps were around early in the 1600’s and better defined by the end of the 1700’s, those maps were not ‘public’ but were treated as state secrets. And so it was not till much later that the broader ‘science’ community had access to good quality and accurate world maps.
It is now known that most of the major continental masses can be fit together in a jigsaw process. In fact we now know that the continents were indeed once all joined together as one land mass – the super-continent of Pangaea.
If you look at most world maps you will ponder how this is evidence, as the continents really don’t appear to ‘fit’ together very well. What you need to understand is that the vast majority of maps are drawn using a map projection that has the north and south poles (which are points) are a line the width of the map at the top and bottom. This means that the map distorts the true shape of the Earth’s land and oceans as you love closer to the poles. Some other map projections distort less, but have the map shape looking like segments of an orange. See here for a range of map projections. Check out the way Greenland changes size in each!
