Answer: from different ways
Explanation:
Answer:
a. short grasses and cacti
Explanation:
The semi-arid and arid areas in the western part of the United States are harsh environments, and only specialized plants for these conditions can survive. The climate is hot and dry, the precipitation very low, and the soil is poor. The plants that survive in these places have adapted well to survive with very little water, to manage to extract water from the air, to preserve it, and being able to sustain very high temperatures. The short grasses are the dominant plants int he semi arid regions. They do not require rich soil, nor lot of water, so they manage to survive on the bear minimum that is available. The trademark plants of the arid areas are the cacti. The cacti are able to store large amounts of water in them, have very long roots, are able to extract water from the air through their needles, and also have skin that doesn't allow any water to come out of it.
Answer:
The Himalayan Mountains by India, Nepal, and China are the best example of a convergent plate boundary.
Explanation:
The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountain range in the world, but also the most massive one. It acts as a natural boundary between Southern, Southeastern, Eastern, Central, and Southwestern Asia. This mountain range is a relatively young one (geologically speaking), and it has formed because of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates.
When India diverged from Gondwana, it started to move toward Eurasia. After tens of millions of years, the Indian plate hit the Eurasian plate from the south, and with both of the plates being continental and having a boundary with their continental parts, they created a convergent plate boundary. The pressure between the plates has resulted in lifting up the crust, gradually creating a huge mountain range.
