<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 :)

Larger countries receive more money in remittances than smaller countries. Please select the best answer from the choices provid
Vsevolod [243]

The correct answer is - False.

The money in remittances are mostly money that have been given as a gift to a country in order to help its development, or the money that are sent back home by the people that work abroad.

The smaller countries receive much more money in this way, and the reason for that is that in general, they are less developed than the larger countries. Most of these countries are either developing or less developed countries, so there's money that come as a support from all over the world, mostly from the biggest and most powerful countries. Also, there's lot of people that leave and work abroad, but their families are not with them, so they send a lot of money in order for their family to survive.

Which type of mountain forms because of divergent plate boundary?
hjlf
In divergent boundaries, plates move away from one another, often causing volcanic activity. The cooled magma is able to form islands such as the ones on the Aleutian archipelago.

*I don't think any of these are actual types of mountains. <em>Arc contient </em>and <em>Andean</em> aren't even real things.

As for your second question:
There are two main types of rocks in the Earth's crust.
Granite is less dense and rises higher, usually above land in continental crust.
Basalt is denser and so it will sink lower and form oceanic crust.
However, there is a layer of sediment on top of that crust. (sand, gravel, etc.)
