Answer:

D. Precipitation

Explanation:

Human environment interactions are interactions between humans and the environment.

Let’s examine each answer choice.

A. Dams are barriers that are built to stop water. Humans build them, so it is a human environment interaction.

B. Farms are plots of land humans use to raise crops and animals. Therefore, they are human environment interactions.

C. Irrigation is a way to water crops. Humans build them. They are human environment interactions.

D. Precipitation is rain, snow, hail and more. Humans can’t control it, so it is not a human environment interaction.

Therefore, the best answer is D. Precipitation.

The US secretary of state, John Kerry, says negotiations on borders should be based in the pre-1967 "green line" – the armistice line drawn in 1949 at the end of the war that followed Israel's declaration of a state – with agreed land swaps to compensate for Jewish settlements in the West Bank that would be incorporated into Israeli territory. For Israel, this would mean giving up settlements deep inside the West Bank. The rightwing Jewish Home party, a key member of the coalition, has declared this a “red line”. The 1967 line is broadly acceptable to Palestinian negotiators, but the actual route of the border and land swap details are crucial.

Jerusalem

Both Israel and the future state of Palestine want Jerusalem as their capital. Israel, which annexed East Jerusalem after the 1967 war, rejects any division of the city. The international consensus is that Jerusalem would have to be the shared capital of both states. But recent speculation suggests that the framework agreement may refer to the Palestinian capital in “greater Jerusalem” - which could mean areas cut off from the city centre and holy sites by the separation wall. This would be unacceptable to the Palestinians.

Security

Israel wants to maintain a long-term military presence in the Jordan Valley, a corridor of land in the West Bank adjacent to the Jordan border, which is under its control. It says this is vital for its security. The Palestinians say they will not accept the continued presence of Israeli forces within their state, and they must control their own borders. The US has suggested that Israel maintains a military presence in the Jordan Valley for a limited period of time.

Refugees

The Palestinians insist that those people – and their descendants – who were forced to flee in 1948, when Israel declared its state amid a bloody war, must have the right to return to their former homeland. Around 5 million Palestinians are registered as refugees. Israel refuses to countenance the return of any refugees, saying an influx would endanger the Jewish character of the state. Previous negotiations have suggested allowing a symbolic number of refugees to return, plus compensation for others.

The Jewish state

Israel insists that the Palestinians must recognise it as a Jewish state ahead of negotiating the details of a deal. The Palestinians reject this, saying the nature of the state of Israel is not their business, and no other country has been required to recognise it as a Jewish state. Such a move would disregard Israel's Arab population, effectively relinquish the right of return for Palestinian refugees and erase the Palestinian historical narrative. Kerry may propose that the Palestinians recognise the Jewish state at the final stages of a deal.

Why do hurricanes spin in opposite directions?

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

This is how the hurricanes are created: In the Northern Hemisphere, winds moving north will move to the east, and winds that are moving south are diverted westward. In the Southern Hemisphere, winds blowing toward the equator will move eastward, and winds traveling in the opposite direction will curve west.

This process results in winds colliding and swirling clockwise in the south, and counterclockwise in the north.

What is popuiation distribution

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Population distribution is a term that is used to describe how people are spread across a specific area. In other words, population distribution shows where people live. Population distribution can be measured across the entire world or a smaller region within a country or continent. Population density is typically expressed as the number of persons per square kilometer (/km2) or square mile (mi2).

When looking at the world as a whole, the northern hemisphere has a much greater population than the southern hemisphere, which is home to less than 10% of the world’s total population. When looking further at the world’s total population distribution, nearly three-quarters of the population live in Africa and Asia.

Areas that are densely populated have very large populations within a unit of area. Areas that are sparsely populated have much smaller populations in a unit of area. Regions that are not densely populated generally have a hostile environment, including a lack of vegetation, extremely cold temperatures, and/or geographic isolation. Densely populated areas run the risk of higher costs of living, more traffic, depletion of resources, and more pollution.

The most densely populated regions, on the other hand, have more favorable climates, clean water, and an abundance of natural resources. This includes regions such as Western Europe or the Eastern United States. The most densely populated countries are Macau (21,055 persons per square kilometer), Monaco (19,150 persons per square kilometer), and Singapore (8,109 persons per square kilometer). The most densely populated city globally is Dhaka, Bangladesh, where the density is 44,000 per square kilometer. Mumbai, India, follows with 32,300 persons per square kilometer.

Population distribution is shown through a dot mop, with each dot on the map representing many people. This data can also be shown on choropleth maps, which use shading, coloring, and symbols to show population distribution.
