Answer: a. Dendritic

Explanation:

A dendritic drainage pattern is the most common form and looks like the roots of trees branching pattern. It is a drainage pattern in which streams branch in many directions randomly at different angles as well. It develops in regions that have underlying homogeneous material. This means the subsurface geology has a similar resistance to weathering resulting in no seeming control over the direction the tributaries take. It is produce in streams that receive several tributaries that are fed by smaller ones. Tributaries link up a larger stream at acute angle ( angle less than 90 degrees). It can be indicated when streams flow across horizontally and complex crystalline rock/homogeneous strata help in resisting erosion uniformly.

Do the populations of richer and more developed countries destroy more forests than those of less developed countries?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

At present, the populations of richer and more developed countries do not destroy more forests than those of less developed countries, because thanks to their economic development they do not need new areas to exploit and, therefore, they conserve their natural areas without major modifications.

The poorer countries, on the other hand, use their natural resources as an economic asset, thereby greatly modifying their natural environment to meet their economic needs.

which of the following best states the relationship among cooperation, conflict, resources in early civilizations
vivado [14]
There are limited amounts of resources in a general area. Some civilizations may not have the ability to produce resources that they need. That makes 2 routes:
1) cooperation: They can cooperate with another people group that lives in a different region and trade with them
2) conflict: They can attack/raid another people group in a different region for the resources
