Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Devils Island was described by even the worst criminals in all of France as a terrible place to be imprisoned. While the island was isolated and difficult to escape from, this was the least of the worries for the inmates.

Brutality and violence among prisoners was common, and treatment by the prison staff was not much better. Even worse, tropical diseases not to be found in France were common in French Guiana. The prisoners who came down with a tropical disease would succumb relatively easily due to the harsh living conditions and lack of immunity.

GPS are used to do all of the following except:A. track lost pets in real timeB. to help map the ocean floorC. track the pattern
sattari [20]

Answer: B - help map the ocean floor

Explanation: GPS which is an acronym for Global Positioning System is a global satellite based location and navigation system owned by the US Government. It was first used by the US Air Force in 1978. It's main purpose is to show a GPS user location and time information from anywhere on earth, where there is an unobstructed line of sight from the precise location to 4 or more GPS satellites. GPS is commonly used on land (obviously through every day use like when you use an uber) and in the air (pilots use GPS signals when they fly).

GPS can be used to track pets if there's a tracking device on their collars.

GPS is also used in taxis and can be used to track a cab after a hurricane.

Ordinary people can use GPS to collect information for scientists - an example of this would be taking a new undefined route on Google maps therefore adding to their archive of known routes/areas.

However GPS signals cannot penetrate water - sea water especially. Hence the answer is B
