Geography

zubka84 [21]3 years ago

The correct answer is - D. Composite.

The rocks are divided into three basic groups, igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, and metamorphic rocks, with later classifications taking place into those three groups.

The igneous rocks are the newest rocks. They form from the cooling magma, and they are the basis for the evolution of the other two types of rocks. These rocks are also the strongest.

The sedimentary rocks form after millions of years of erosion of the igneous rocks, and then the eroded parts are getting stuck together with high temperatures, pressures, or natural agents that act like glue.

The metamorphic rocks are rocks that are forming deep into the ground, and they come to be after one of the other two rock types undergoes high temperatures and pressures for prolonged period of time underground.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

Geography influence History.

Explanation:

Which term refers to a geographic area in which people have common trails
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Cultural Region

Explanation:

A cultural region is basically a geographic area in which the people have common traits. The people have always grouped themselves, and the basis for it has been their culture and their physical appearance.

This has resulted in creation of unique traits among different groups of people. That has created sense of unity, which has created strong bonds among the people of a particular cultural region, so even if they do not personally all know each other, they are often willing to fight together for their rights, freedom, or interests, and even give their life for it.

Unfortunately, this kind of distinction among the different groups of people has resulted in lot of conflicts, lot of suffering, discrimination and lot of injustices .
