<u>Answer:</u>

The Andes Mountains have affected the settlement in South America by blocking straight and easy access of the population to the western coast forcing them to settle on the northern and the eastern coasts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Andes Mountains stretch along the entire northern edge of the continent of South America and run roughly parallel to the coast.
  • This mountain range has left the western edge of the continent not so suitable for settlement coercing the population to settle elsewhere.

The Andes are a barrier to movement in interior, which basically means that more settlement in South America has occurred along the eastern and northern coasts.

Hope this helped :)

Why is it winter in Australia when it is summer in the United States?
ValentinkaMS [17]
The main reason is that the USA is in the Northern Hemisphere & Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere. It has all to do with the tilt of the earth as it revolves around the Sun. Summer happens in the hemisphere tilted towards the Sun, and winter happens in the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun.

what would happen if igneous rock was first exposed to energy from the sun and then millions of years later to energy from Earth
inysia [295]

Answer:They would become igneous rocks

Explanation:

If originally, sedimentary rocks are exposed to energy from the sun, no changes will occur to them.

One will hardly spot any difference in their mineralogical composition as such.

The temperature of the sun does not any significant alteration on earth materials.

The heat from the interior has a very significant effect on rocks, especially sedimentary rocks.

Heat from the interior can reach a staggering 6000°C which is more than enough to cause a metamorphic change in a body rock.

In fact, at this temperature, igneous rock will be produced from the sedimentary rock.
