Answer: contour lines.
Topographic maps are easily recognized by their contour lines.
Answer:
Though there is no lake or river flowing through Sam's region,
Explanation:
Environmental quality refers to the features and the properties which are ideal for a good environment. The characteristics may be either in a generalized tone or in the local aspect. These characteristics help in maintaining the life of living organisms. The quality of air, water, and sound can be stated under the features of environmental quality.
In the given passage, the quality of air in Sam's region meets good environmental quality. On the other hand, the region does not have any lake or river. Since any water body is absent, therefore, the given sentence depicts the poor environmental quality.
The town is which I live is Negotino, Republic of Macedonia. The is located in the driest part of the country, so it is very common that there's problems with water during the warmer part of the year. The landscape is mostly dominated by two things, vineyards and barren land which has the characteristics of a is semi-desert, so the town, and the municipality as whole, lacks in wood as well.
My two suggestions for making the town and the surrounding area more sustainable would be:
1. Planting the whole barren land with wild or semi-wild apricots
The wild and semi-wild apricots thrive in this climate, do not need any maintenance, don't have problems with high temperatures and droughts, nor with very low temperatures. From those apricots, the fruits can be used for production of juices and kompots, selling them for much lower prices in the municipality and throughout the country, so the municipality can get a significant income, income that can be used for improving the town's infrastructure and any projects. The shells of the apricots are excellent for heating, thus can be distributed to the households throughout the town as a material for heating during the winter. The trees will also contribute to better air quality and lower the effects of the strong winds.
2. Construction of water collectors
Construction of water collectors will be extremely useful, considering the semi-arid climate in the area. The water collected during the spring and autumn can be used for all sorts of things in the town, thus minimizing, or maybe even eliminating the water problem during the drier parts of the year.
The correct answer is South America.
Explanation
The graph shows the change in forest cover across various regions such as Eastern and Southern Africa, Northern Africa, Western and Central Africa, East Asia, South and Southeast Asia, Western and Central Asia, Europe, Caribbean, Central America, North America, Oceania and South America of the world between 1990 and 2010 (divided into four groups 1990, 2000, 2005 and 2010). According to the graph the region with less change in forest cover is North America because through those years, there were close to 700.000 Ha; the region with the most increase of forest cover is East Asia because in 1990 there were close to 200.000 Ha and in 2010 there were close to 270.000 Ha, and the region with the most decrease of forest cover is South America because in 1990 there were close to 930.000 Ha and in 2010 there were close to 850.000 Ha. According to the above, the correct answer is South America.
Answer:
In topographical terms, the Massif Central is land lying mostly at above 500 metres, and includes most of the regions of Auvergne and Limousin, plus parts of the regions of Rhone-Alpes, Languedoc, and Midi-Pyrenees.
Occupying about one-sixth of France (33,000 square miles [86,000 square km]), the massif, for the most part, consists of plateaus lying between 2,000 and 3,000 feet (600 and 900 m).
