Why are summers generally warmer than winters?
andrew-mc [135]
Because the earth's axis is tilted. It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis. 

During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures.

During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot. Also, the long nights and short days prevent the Earth from warming up. That's why we have winter.

I hope this helped!


Thank you,

Otaku

A volcanic island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean explodes, and all life is removed from the island. However, decades later,
Tasya [4]

Answer:

secondary succession

Explanation:

In the described scenario we have a destruction of an ecosystem because of natural causes, volcano in this case. All that has left after the volcanic eruption has been barren land. After this has happened life started colonizing the volcanic island again, in a process known as primary succession. In the primary succession it is the organisms that have the lowest of requirements for survival that will inhabit the island. Over time, as they die, they will provide biomass for the ground, thus soil will start to form. Once there's soil formed a process called secondary succession will start. In this process the island will start to be inhabited by some plants and smaller animals. These plants and animals will contribute to further enhancing the living conditions on the island, and the island will gradually be getting larger plants and larger animals, thus a new ecosystem will be formed on the place of the old one.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

A. It requires that all Inuit must live within the territory.

Explanation:

Nunavut does not require that all Inuit must live within the territory. It would actually be quite difficult for the government to make such a requirement since almost as many Inuit live in Greenland as in live in Canada. Moreover, there are also sizeable Inuit populations in other parts of Canada such as Quebec, Newfoundland and Northwest Territories.
