The anticlines represents ridges or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping downwards from the crest.

The synclines represent through or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping upwards from the axis.

Both of these features are formed in the same manner, by compression. They are also part of a same geological occurrence. Both of them are curved, and seen from side perspective, they are representing one whole, and they look like a wave.

The difference is mainly that the anticlines are always above and they slope downwards, while the synclines are always on the bottom and slope upwards.

Indian agricultural in 300 words plzzzzzzz help !!!
ehidna [41]

Explanation:

According to some scientists agriculture was widespread in the Indian peninsula, 10000–3000 years ago, well beyond the fertile plains of the north. For example, one study reports 12 sites in the southern Indian states of [Tamil Nadu], [Andhra Pradesh]and [Karnataka] providing clear evidence of agriculture of pulses [Vigna radiata] and [Macrotyloma uniflorum], millet-grasses (Brachiaria ramosa and Setaria verticillata), wheats (Triticum dicoccum, Triticum durum/aestivum), barley (Hordeum vulgare), hyacinth bean (Lablab purpureus), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), finger millet (Eleusine coracana), cotton (Gossypium sp.), linseed (Linum sp.), as well as gathered fruits of Ziziphus and two Cucurbitaceae.

Some claim Indian agriculture began by 9000 BC as a result of early cultivation of plants, and domestication of crops and animals. Settled life soon followed with implements and techniques being developed for agriculture. Double monsoons led to two harvests being reaped in one year. Indian products soon reached trading networks and foreign crops were introduced. Plants and animals—considered essential to survival by the Indians—came to be worshiped and venerated.

The middle ages saw irrigation channels reach a new level of sophistication, and Indian crops affected the economies of other regions of the world under Islamic patronage. Land and water management systems were developed with an aim of providing uniform growth.

Despite some stagnation during the later modern era the independent Republic of India was able to develop a comprehensive agricultural programme.

What major changes have occurred in the arak sea between 2000 and 2012
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Between 2000 and 2012, the Aral Sea has experienced less water income, increased salinity, significant loss of water, the formation of separate parts, and huge loss of biodiversity.

Explanation:

The Aral Sea, once one of the largest in the world, has experienced a tragic story since 2000. Once a great and vibrant lake, it came on the verge of drying out and dissapearing from the map. The reasons for this have been the smaller water income, loss of water, increased salinity, formation of smaller separated lakes, and loss of biodiversity.

Because of agriculture, namely, cotton farming, the water supply to the lake has been significantly lowered, leading to larger evaporation than water income. The lake started to lose its water rapidly, and by becoming shallower its temperature rose, so the evaporation became even larger, the salinity increased, and from one large lake, few smaller ones have formed because a large portion of it dried out. Because of all of the aforementioned things the biodiversity suffered badly.
