Answer: False

Explanation:

Most rivers don't have gentle gradients in the upper course or headwaters, rather most rivers always have steep gradient in their upper course. The upper course of a river is known as the headwaters region. But in their downstream regions, most rivers usually have relatively gentle gradients.

explain why some children in India do not get access to education, even though the Indian government have made education compuls
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Search out Greg Mortenson on the internet. With the help of a ghost writer, he wrote Three Cups of Tea. It has moved a great many people including me. It is the story of a mountain climber who wandered aimlessly in the a poor region of Pakistan (but the same comments apply to India). He collapsed in a village where, had he landed anywhere else, he likely would have been left to die.

Eventually after dealing with all sorts of problems (including the Taliban), he comes to realize that the only way out of poverty the people of this village endured  (and many others like it) was education. From that moment on, he dedicated himself to raising money to build schools in areas like the one that found him. His firm belief was that Education was the only answer.

I think the answer to your question is isolation. Some areas of India are just too isolated and too poor to do anything about education. A whole much better description is in 3 cups of tea and if you are serious about your question, you will find it and read it.

What is accurate about the land surface today, that you can observe in places such as pennsylvania?.
Alex17521 [72]

Sediment is being deposited in a few places, but most places are eroding.

<h3><u>What is sediment?</u></h3>
  • Sediment is a naturally occurring substance that is broken down by weathering processes and then moved by the force of gravity acting on the particles or by the action of wind, water, or ice.
  • For instance, sand and silt can be carried in river water in suspension and, once they reach the sea floor, are deposited through sedimentation.
  • If they are buried, however, they may eventually undergo lithification and turn into sandstone and siltstone.
  • Sediment is moved based on its own size, volume, density, and shape as well as the force of the flow that transports it.

Larger or denser particles will have a higher likelihood of falling through the flow, while stronger flows will increase the lift and drag on the particle, forcing it to ascend.

There are only two chemical elements which are significantly magnetic and reasonably
azamat

Answer:

<u>Iron </u>and <u>Nickel</u>

<u>core</u>

<u>Iron and Nickel</u>

Explanation:

Two of the most popular magnetic chemicals in the world are iron and nickel.

We can now match these metals with the description given in the question to check if they perfectly fit in the blanks.

The densities of iron and nickel are 7874kg/m3 and 8900kg/m3 respectively. To put this into perspective, the density of aluminium is only 2700kg/m3. This means that iron and nickel are really dense solid materials.  These materials are strong enough to make the core of the earth.

Because these materials are also magnetic and strong, we can say that they are the materials that form the solid core of the earth's structure.
