1) Lowlands area especially level ones are good for human habitation, hence population and settlements Sheldon concentrated here.
2) Coastal lowlands are sources of mineral deposits such as crude oil.
3) Lowlands favour agriculture
4) lowlands favour construction of communication network such as roads, railways, airports, etc.
The position of a place north or south of the equator is described
in terms of its latitude. Since we're talking about the surface of
a sphere, latitude is an angle, and its value is given in angle
measure.
Any unit of angle is fine ... degrees, radians, grads, etc., and if
you're given an angle in one unit, you can always easily change
it to a unit that you like better ... but 'degrees' has been the unit
used most often for latitude, and longitude too, practically since
the whole system was invented a few hundred years ago.
For parts of an angle smaller than a whole degree, 1/60 of a
degree (minutes) and 1/3600 of a degree (seconds) were used
traditionally for the first couple hundred years. But that ponderous,
inconvenient system is rapidly giving way now to plain old decimal
degrees, probably because those are easier for the computer to handle.
Answer:
A. Reforestation makes the forest renewable, so the company has a stable supply of timber.
Explanation:
If a company uses timber in order to produce paper, it can go either way for the environment, but also for the business itself.
If the company is not reforesting, than it will constantly cut down new trees, with much higher rate than what they can reforest the cut down area, so eventually there will be no trees, so the environment will be destroyed, and the business will be left without its basic material.
If the company uses the method of reforestation though it is a different story. If for every tree that is cut, there is another one that is planted on its place, the forest will constantly be in good shape. Also, the timber in this manner will be a renewable resource, as its replenishing will be at roughly the same rate as the cutting down of the trees. The environment will stay in good condition, and the business will constantly have its basic material in order to operate.
