They provide evidence that movements of the crust are a result of slow moving currents in the mantle. Since earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are usually a result of stick-slip movements between 2 more plates and it is tension changes that are responsible for this sudden movement, the plates must be moving overtime or this tension would remain fairly constant.

The primary reason native peoples in california remained hunters and gatherers for hundreds of years after europeans arrived in
andrew11 [14]

The primary reason for why native peoples in california remained hunters and gatherers for hundreds of years after europeans arrived in the western hemisphere was because  Both land and ocean provided an abundant food supply and resources.

human evolution is the process where humanbeing evolve according to the needs , so when there will be plenty of natural resources , then their basic needs get fulfilled by existing natural resources so they never tried to evolve themselves.

paleo-indians were living in an isolated continent , there was no fear of military attack , food scarcity, population migration , etc and there was no need for agriculture because they can get food from forest, river, ocean, etc. and their demand gets fulfilled by available natural resources , so they never tried to expand their research and never tried to adopt alien culture.

so even after hundred years of European arrival the native people of california remained hunter and gatherer.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

You didn't give the options and I couldn't find the exact question online. Let me try help out.

Incidence of tax is the impact that a tax simply has on how the economic welfare are being distributed. It refers to how tax is being distributed between the producers and the buyers of a particular good. It should be noted that the tax burden is shared by the sellers depending on the elasticity of the said product.

For example, in a situation whereby a $2 tax is imposed on each good a producer produces, if the producer then pass the tax to the final consumers when he raised the price of the goods by $2, we can simply say that such good has a price inelastic as the entire burden falls on the consumer.

Also, assuming the producer can't increase prices because such good is price elastic, that is, there will be a greater change in the quantity of the goods demanded, the burden will be felt by the producer alone. Here, we can say that the tax incidence falls on the producer.

6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36.
6: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40.
Total: 
6, 8, 12, 16, 18, 24, 30, 32, 36, 40.
There are 10/40 positive numbers that can be divided by 6 or 8.
