Answer:

Between the Equator and the Tropical Capricorn, and the Equator and the Tropical Cancer

Explanation:

The sun rays don't fall on the surface of the Earth at the same angle across all of it. The reason for this is the shape of the Earth, as it is a circular space body, or rather an ellipsoid.

The Equator is the place on Earth that is the most exposed to the sun rays throughout the year, which is why the climate is constant and without changes in this part of the world.  The Equator always gets the sun rays at right angle, or very near the right angle.

The northern limit to where the sun rays fall at right angle is the Tropical Cancer, which gets the sun rays at right angle during the June solstice.

The southern limit to where the sun rays fall at right angle is the Tropical Capricorn, which gets the sun rays at right angle during the December solstice.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

In this region we see that faulting has occurred. Because the rock strata are not lined up with one another across the entire region, it is clear that the land has faulted and the the two edge blocks have slipped downwards leaving the middle block uplifted or that the middle block has been pushed upwards.

These two types of faulting are called normal faulting and reverse faulting. They are the result of tension and compression stresses, respectively, that pull and compress the rocks creating fractures called faults. If the stress is sufficient, the outer blocks slide downward or the middle block is uplifted.
