Answer: Taiga/Boreal Forest

Explanation:

A boreal forest, also known as Taiga is found in the cold areas of the Northern hemisphere such as Alaska, Siberia and Russia. The largest of these forests is in Russia.

The soil found in the Taiga usually contains permafrost, which prevents water draining from the soil and due to this, is wet and mossy although it looks like solid ground.  The permafrost makes it possible for a Taiga to sustain a wide range of pines and conifers despite the reduced precipitation.

Animals which have adapted to the cold climate are also abundant in this biome and range from bears to lynx, moose and a variety of birds.

Answer:

Continental drift in terms of plate tectonics.

  • Plates on which the landmasses and various features are made is not static as it looks and is more dynamic and was more destructive in the past as the formation of the earth during the 4.6 billion years ago the continental landmass underwent transformations and breakthrough happened as the split and rejoined and again joined to form what is seen today.
  • These plates drifted in such ways that the landmasses formed various properties of the northern and southern hemispheres. Wegener gave evidence of Jigsaw fit puzzle, drifting of the climatic zones, spreading of the plants and animals located at the same continental borders.
  • Moving of the plates under the action of gravity and wind speeds.

Anit [1.1K]
<span>The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Topographic maps feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land. Topo maps render the three-dimensional ups and downs of the terrain on a two-dimensional surface. It also includes contours. Orthophoto maps</span> show land features using color-enhanced photographic images which have been processed to show detail in true position. They may or may not include contours."
