Geography

denis-greek [22]4 years ago
4 0
The Panama Canal took 10+ years to construct because construction workers only worked on it once every two weeks. This was because they were faced with difficult weather trying to build it. Difficulties such as land sliding, rain, costs, inadequate machinery, and the threat of yellow fever and malaria.

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

B. Functional Region

Explanation:

Functional regions have boundaries related to a practical function within a given area. When the function of an area ends, the functional region ends and its boundaries cease to exist. For example, a functional region can be defined by a newspaper service or delivery area. If the newspaper goes bankrupt, the functional region no longer exists. Church parishes, shopping malls, and business service areas are other examples of functional regions. They function to serve a region and may have established boundaries for limits of the area to which they will provide service. An example of a common service area—that is, a functional region—is the region to which a local pizza shop will deliver. A functional region is a region that serves a function. Places within in an area are linked together through a common factor. For example, a city and its surrounding suburbs creates a functional region. People generally move to the suburbs if they have a job in the city.

What a deep valley that forms where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate is called?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Oceanic trench

Explanation:

On the places where there's convergent plate boundary between an oceanic and continental plate, there's a subduction zone. The oceanic plate is denser, heavier, lower than the continental plate. Because of that, the oceanic plate is moving below the continental plate, slowly getting into the mantle where it is melted and destroyed. On the boundary itself, a gap opens up between the plates, a gap that is under constant pressure and geological activity. This gap is basically a valley at the bottom of the ocean, being much deeper than the surrounding area. The term used for these places is an ocean trench, and there's lot of them around the world where there's a convergent plate boundary between an oceanic and continental plate. The best known of these ocean trenches, also being the deepest place on Earth, is the Mariana trench, located on the boundary between the Filipino and the Pacific plates.
