Hello there!

Back in the days of the early Egyptians, they did not know about "north" or "south." Due to this, they did not think to orient their kingdom in the way we do now. They took the Nile River, which flows from south to north as their reference. Therefore, the southern part was known as "Upper Egypt" while the northern region was called "Lower Egypt."

I hope this helps!

What is going on with the natural world around you?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Last year we had the most handsome of ducks -- a mallard. He was with us until the end of June at which time the water on our property dried up. I have a feeling his mate got tired of sitting on the nest all the time and demanded he help.  They built their nest in a thicket that was impossible to get near. We knew about where it was, but it did us no good.

We did get to see the young ones once or twice. It is amazing how quickly they grow. By the end of September, they were all ready to go south -- even the young ones.

This year is very dry -- there's no water for them. So we have not seen the mallards or ducks of any kind and no geese either. We all miss them.

Which of the following statements describes a defining characteristic of Canada’s territories?
skad [1K]
B. canadian territories are under a constitutional monarchy

Canada still exists such that the Queen of England is the head of state or formal representative of canada. However they are protected by a constitution and act as an independent nation with a head of government (the prime minister) taking care of actual governmental affairs. The queen does not have direct power in the same manner as the prime minister hence the division head of state vs head of government.

What would happen if earth's axis were not tilted?​
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

If Earth's axis was not tilted then the climate zones would change, there would be no seasons, and the day and night will last the same all year.

Explanation:

Earth's axis is tilted, and with it circling around the Sun, there a great effects on the planet's surface, from climate, duration of day and night throughout the year, change of seasons, amount of sunlight, etc. But if this was to change and Earth's axis is not tilted, then there will changes in pretty much everything on Earth's surface.

The climate zones will be very clearly separated by latitude, and every climate zone will be more or less monotonous throughout the year, with just minimal changes every now and then. This will happen because the amount of sunlight and the angle under which the sunlight falls will the same at a given place throughout all of the year. The day and night will also be the same, unlike the changes they experience with the tilted axis. To put it simply, the equatorial area will remain pretty much the same, but if we take the temperate zones then they will experience climate like it is always spring or autumn, while the higher latitudes will constantly be frozen and experience winter.
