<h3>Claim about the geology beneath Florida's surface:</h3>

Sinkholes are becoming a huge problem in Florida. This is because Florida sits on the bedrock of limestone.

These limestone hold huge amounts of water passing through them known as Aquifers, resulting in the weakening of the limestone and collapsing underneath creating sinkholes.

EXPLANATION:

To make matters worse, Florida has been pumping out the water from these aquifers at an increasing rate.

This has further destabilized the limestone bedrock which has further contributed to the increasing number of sinkholes in the state.

Now that you understand the basics about the Berlin Airlift, formulate three questions about this event that you want to know mo

tangare [24]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The three questions about the Berlin Airlift are the following.

1.- Why did Soviet leader Joseph Stalin order such an "evil" thing?

2.- What was the reaction of the western European allies to that decision?

3.- How everything ended after almost one year of the blockade?

Here are my answers.

1.- Why did Soviet leader Joseph Stalin order such an "evil" thing?

The Soviet Union needed to have a powerful answer against the allied forces after the recent events. Furthermore, Joseph Stalin wanted to show his power. After Joseph Stalin ordered the blockade of Berlin, people were totally disconnected and could not have any type of contact with the outer world.

2.- What was the reaction of the western European allies to that decision?

The United States and Great Britain would not allow the Soviet Union to spread its influence by cutting Americans off from friendly peoples and territories. That was mainly the goal when they decided to start the Berlin airlift.

That is why on June 26, 1948, Great Britain and the United States started to send help and supplies to Berlin using airplanes. President Harry S. Truman wanted to avoid a direct confrontation with Russia or the possibility of another war in the region, that is why he opted for help by air.

3.- How everything ended after almost one year of the blockade?

In May 1949, the USSR lifted the blockade. It was clear to Stalin that his blockade has failed.

1. The First Quarter Moon always occurs

Artemon [7]

Answer:

1.- b. when the Moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun.

2.-b. when the Moon is directly opposite the position of the Sun.

3.-b. when the Moon is closer to the Sun than the Earth is.

Explanation:

The First Quarter Moon is when we can see exactly half of the Moon's surface illuminated. If it is the left or right half, it depends on where you are on Earth. If we observe the diagram I added we can see than the moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun when it's in this phase.
Full Moon happens when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, this makes the bright side of the Moon face the Earth. This is also observable in the diagram.
The New Moon always occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, therefore it's closer to the Sun than the Earth, the bright side of the Moon is facing away from the Earth. You can check this in the diagram as well.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

The best bibliogaphic entry would probably be: Smythe, Clark. Unsinkable: Folly on the Titanic Little, Brown: New York, 1976.

That is because it seems to be a book about the Titanic itself, whereas the other ones have to do with:

topics which are less directly related to the subject-matter (the first entry is about maritime laws and the third one is about the animal and plant populations of the lands near the North Pole),
personal, relative accounts of the events (like the fourth entry, which is an autobiography of a survivor and therefore describes the wreck through the character's own perspective) as opposed to more factual material.

América se encuentra más lejos del polo norte que del polo sur. Lejos del polo norte que del polo sur. VERDADERO O FALSO

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Falso.

Explicación:

América está más lejos del Polo Sur que del Polo Norte porque América está ubicada en el hemisferio norte, que está más cerca del polo norte. América está presente en el lado norte del ecuador, mientras que el polo sur está ubicado en el sur del ecuador, lo que indica que América está más cerca del polo norte, mientras que más lejos del polo sur, por lo que la afirmación de la pregunta es falsa.
