I think that the two regions would be the Temperate Zone and the Polar Zone, as they're the only climate regions to the south of the 20<span>°S latitude. Check a world latitude map and compare it with a climate map if you're still unsure.</span>

There are tradeoffs to everything.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Yes, with a condition.

Explanation:

Renewable energy sources and have always been available on the planet, but until recently, humans have not had the technology necessary to harness them. Since solar and wind energy are limitless, it clearly makes sense to invest the necessary amounts of money to build one-time infrastructure capable of powering all human activity without depleting natural resources.

The condition that is a prerequisite already being fulfilled is that technology be developed to make alternative energy solutions <em>economically viable and profitable </em>enough to be able to compete with traditional non-renewable sources.

Question 71 (1 point)
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Answer 71: True

Answer 72: False

Answer 73: True

Answer 74: No, because you need information from more than one seismograph to plot the epicenter

Explanation:

Answer 71:

When a plate is subducting under another it forms a trench in the limit between the plates, because the one that is subducting takes the extern part of the other toward the Earth's interior.

Answer 72:

A sedimentary breccia has angular clastic particles and is bad sorted, that means that the grains have different sizes . It's related to low transport and high energy environments and it's not related with water, because water use to form rounded clasts.

Answer 73:

A tsunami is like a big wave in the sea that's prapagated from the original point to the shoreline. Here is important to remember that the amount of water is not changing, so, to generate a big wave is necessary to take the disponible water and for that reason, when the wave is growing seaward, the water in the shoreline retraets rapidly to form the big wave that then will be coming to the coast.

Answer 74:

The process to determine the epicenter of a seism is called triangulation, and it needs 3 different seismographs to work. It consists in drawing a circle whose center is the seismograph localization and the radius is the approximate distance of the earthquake recorded by the instrument. After having drawed the three circles, we will have a common zone between them with a triangle form and that's the localization of the epicenter.

The scientific theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's crust is composed of many plates, or slabs of rock. Interaction
anygoal [31]
Mountains are created when two plates collide. When the plates converge or slide underneath each other the heat causes melting of the crust and volcanoes appear. When they cool off they become islands.

What can we NOT learn from the fossils found in rock strata? when a species became extinct the exact age of each individual foss
tatiyna

Explanation:

Fossils do tell a lot about Earth's past landscape. Age of rocks , species of animal in the past era, etc. But there are various aspects that they fail to answer. While fossils reveal what ancient living things looked like, they keep us guessing about their color, sounds, and most of their behavior. Fossils are very rare.The Fossil record is like a big jigsaw puzzle, with most of the pieces missing. Many species probably left no fossils at all.
