Why does most of south asia's population live on the northern plains?

Social Studies

Valentin [98]3 years ago

Just to the south of the Outer Mountain Wall is the Northern Plain. The Northern Plain can also be mapped as an upside down "U" or "V" shape area. The plains exist in this location due to the meltwater coming down from the mountains. The Northern Plain was actually formed by the numerous rivers flowing through the region. The waters of these rivers come mainly from melting snow in the Outer Mountain Wall area. Rivers of the Northern Plain include the Indus River, the Ganges River, The Brahmaputra River and the Jumna (Yamuna) River. The famed Taj Mahal is located along the Jumna River.

Just like the river plains of the Middle East, the floodplains of this area provide excellent soil for agriculture and the rivers themselves provide the necessary water for irrigation and survival. Therefore, you would expect to find higher concentrations of people in and around these river plains.

In fact, that is absolutely true. The majority of South Asia's population today (i.e., >50%) lives in the Northern Plain. There is good soil in the floodplains, therefore good agriculture and the best potential for a good food supply.

Early civilizations sprang up around these river plains. The Indus River Valley (in present-day Pakistan) and the Ganges-Brahmaputra River Delta (in present-day Bangladesh) were two areas where early civilizations came about. We will discuss these civilizations more in the human geography section.

Short-term memory: short-term memory is responsible for storing the information for a short time that we will not need in the future since it has as properties that its capacity is limited and for a short time. Likewise, short-term memory can only remember or retrieve the information of 7 elements with the variation of two parts already decreasing or increasing.

Long-term memory: this memory is responsible for storing unlimited information for a long time, long-term memory is what helps us to perform daily tasks and automatically since it is accountable for storing skills and facts when A job is done and retrieve those memories later.

Procedural Memory: this is responsible for storing all the steps or processes that we must perform to do a task since this memory is responsible for recovering all the necessary motor and executive memories.

Semantic Memory: semantic memory is responsible for storing all the conceptual or factual information of what we are learning; this memory is essential to help us understand the environment in which we live and people. Semantic memory helps us to think abstractly and to form the concepts necessary for language development.

Episodic Memory: this memory is responsible for storing and processing the information of memories lived during our lives, begins its development in childhood, and reaches its maximum development in adulthood. Episodic memory and semantic memory form declarative memory.

Explanation:

In Steven's case he wants to teach Mary to play Cribbage, which is a game that he learned at 10, so Steve tries to recover a memory so that in this situation the long-term memory that is responsible for storing the information for all these years, the episodic memory that has the function of storing all the resources. It also uses the procedural memory that is responsible for saving all the information of the processes such as playing cribbage, the semantic memory that is then responsible for storing all the concepts that Steve learns, or learned.

And finally, the short-term memory that has the first function because it was the one that Steven used to save the information first and then pass it to the long-term memory.

After doing the whole process of remembering, you can put your knowledge into practice in the cribbage to explain to Mary.
