After doing a lot of research on the answers to questions 40-42 on the Regents exam and studying the map you posted, the answer can be easily figured out.
It will take approximately 3 hours for the apparent position of the sun to change from point A on the map to point B on the map.
The correct answer choice will be number 3, 3 hours.
Scientists attribute soil formation to the following factors: Parent material, climate, biota (organisms), topography and time. ... The physical, chemical and biological properties of the different soils can have a big effect on how to best manage them.
Answer:
The Great Basin
Explanation:
The desert area in the center of the Cordillera in the United States is called the Great Basin.
- The Great Basin is located between the Rocky mountains and the Coastal plains.
- This region is bowl shaped depression between the topographic features.
- The mountains prevents precipitation from forming in this excluded region.
Answer:
The stream will flow fastest between 2 and 3.
Explanation:
On this map, we can see two basic elements, one being the contour lines, and the other being the color with which a stream is presented. The contour lines are giving us a good representation of the relief and where it is steeper and where it is less steep. Basically, where the contour lines are closer to each other, we have a steeper relief, and when the contour lines are further away, the relief is less steep.
The water moves under the influence of gravity, so downward. Where the steepness is the greatest, the gravity influences it the most, so it moves faster, while where the steepness is smaller, the gravity influences it less, so it moves slower. On this map, the contour lines are closest to each other between points 2 and 3, meaning it is the steepest part of the relief, and it is the place where the stream flows the fastest.
