Russia, the world's largest country (by total area), comprises much of northern Eurasia, and stretches over a vast expanse of Europe and Northern Asia.[1] Due to its size, Russia displays both monotony and diversity. As with its topography, its climates, vegetation, and soils span vast distances.[2] From north to south the East European Plain is clad sequentially in tundra, coniferous forest (taiga), mixed and broadleaf forests, grassland (steppe), and semi-desert (fringing the Caspian Sea) as the changes in vegetation reflect the changes in climate. Siberia supports a similar sequence but is predominantly taiga. The country contains forty UNESCO biosphere reserves
They are called fringing reefs. They grow directly from shore and form borders along the shoreline.
When a fringing reef continues to grow upward from a volcanic island that has sunk entirely below the sea level, an atoll is formed. Atolls are usually circular or oval in shape, with an open lagoon in the center.
The fringing reef is the most common type of coral reef. They however tend to be very sensitive to human induced pollution in the water and are easily destroyed by such.
The ice caps are melting due to global warming which is being affected by the polluted air
Answer:
Norway
Explanation:
Officially there are three countries that compose Scandinavia, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Occasionally, Finland, Iceland, Faeroe Islands, and Aaland Islands are included, but that is only for local usage.
Out of the three countries, the one that has the biggest elevation is Norway, with Sweden coming as second, and Denmark having the lowest elevation. Norway's average elevation is 460 m. Sweden's average elevation is 320 m. Denmark's average elevation is only 34 m, making it the fifth joint lowest country in the world.
Norway has the highest elevation out of the three because the around half of the country is dominated by mountains, while Sweden also has mountains, it is mostly dominated by lowlands, and Denmark is entirely very low, lacking a single mountain or even a higher hill on its territory.
