Answer:

mountain ridges creating natural divides

Water generally flows from regions of high elevations to flat lands and plains.

Oceans the final basin where water from lands flows into. Ocean basins are located at very low elevation and through this potential head, gravity allows all land water to flow ocean-ward.

Why do masses of partially melted rock or magma rise or intrude the surrounding rocks?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The melted magma or partially melted rock rise or intrude the surrounding rocks because of the buoyancy. The partially melted rocks or magma due their high temperature become less dense than the surrounding rocks and rise up. And then these heated rock or magma react with surrounding rocks which in turn increases the pressure in the magma chamber. This intermixing of magma with surrounding rocks forms another type of rocks called igneous rocks.

How does a representative democracy differ from an oligarchy? check all that apply .
Finger [1]

Answer:

Difference between Representative Democracy

Explanation:

Representative Democracy is a government system, in which a representative  group of people elected (chosen) by general public - are in power.

a) People elect small group in power, b) Those few <u>public elected</u> people  directly exercise power, c) Government positions are open to many people, d) Anyone can run for office - whosoever chosen by public comes in power : are characteristics of representative democracy, not of oligarchy

Oligarchy is a type of government, in which a small group of powerful people (powerful due to wealth, education, religion, military link etc)  - are in power & the power tends to stay with them.

Oligarchy is run by a small group of powerful people, <u>not elected</u> by general public. Only those few powerful people exercise direct or indirect power - as they are not public representatives. Government positions are not open to many people, anyone cant run office, as the power tends to stay accumulated in that powerful group's hands.
