The correct answer is - lagoon.

When rivers and streams that have lower water volume throughout the whole year come in touch with the ocean, under the influence of the ocean's wave and ocean currents along the coast, sandbars and barrier islands start to form around the estuary. As they form and little by little grow in size, they manage to create a closed space with calm shallow water between the estuary itself and the ocean, thus creating a lagoon.

The Northwest Territories could apply for statehood with the Confederation when each of their populations reached __________.
Marianna [84]

The Northwest Territories could apply for statehood with the Confederation when each of their populations reached 60,000 free inhabitants, including women.

<h3>What does applying for statehood mean under the Northwest Ordinance?</h3>

It stated that each district would be eligible for statehood whenever its population matched that of the least populated current state and that each district would be able to send one representative to Congress once it reached a population of 20,000. (The Regulation of 1787 replaced this ordinance.)

Its name was changed to the Northwest Ordinance and it established a way for the territories northwest of the Ohio River, which included what would eventually become the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, and a portion of Minnesota, to become independent states.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Boreal forest

Explanation:

The boreal forest is a biome that is found in the Northern Hemisphere. It is located between the temperate forests and the tundra. These forests are dominated by coniferous trees. The climate is continental, with the winters being very cold and snowy, while the summers are pleasant with mild temperatures. The animals that live in these forests are the elk, moose, deer, wolverines, wolves, black bears, mink, foxes, lynx, among others. All these animals have special adaptations that enable them to live in this biome. They all have thick fur for most of the year, only shedding slightly during the summer.Their paws tend to winder and have goo isolation so that they can walk easily on the snow and avoid frostbite. It is not a biome that has very big diversity in flora and fauna, but it is not a one that lacks in it as well.
