Animism––a belief system in which natural features, including plants and animals, are believed to have spiritual powers––is the
Sergio [31]

The places where the animism is practiced are usually places that are not providing good conditions for large urban areas to develop, such as the tropical rainforests, steppes, and deserts.

Explanation:

The animism is a belief system, represented by numerous different religions around the world, in which the natural features have spiritual powers. The plants and the animals have the leading role in this type of religions. The people have attributed particular plants and animals with certain characteristics, and adore and respect them.

While this type of religions have been very common in the past, in modern times they have been largely reduced to areas where the modern way of living was not able to have big influence, usually because of geographic factors, mainly climate and physical features. This is why the animism is mostly found among people groups that live in tropical rainforest, steppe, and desert. The majority of the people that practice animism can be found in:

  • Mongolia
  • Southeast Asia
  • tropical rainforests of Africa
  • interior of Africa
  • the Amazon

Most of the time in the atmosphere, the upward-directed pressure gradient force is exceeded by the downward pull of gravity.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Ture

Explanation:

  • The pressure gradient is the force that is produced due to the rotation of earth pressure cells that creates lighter air to move upwards and heavier to move downwards due to the difference in densities of air.
  • As the air above consists of lighter elements the oceanic air mostly consist of diatomic molecules of oxygen and nitrogen thus containing a large amount of water vapor, all these molecules have a mass that are pulled down by the gravity and this pull of gravity on columns of gas applies a force what we see an atmospheric pressure.
  • The gas particles and molecules of heavy and denser matter get stuck at the ground, similarly, as the air cools is descends and warm air rises. Thus upwards and downward motion of air causes convergence and divergence of molecules.
