Why is Sahara considered a natural boundary?

1 answer:

4 0

The Sahara Desert forms a natural boundary for many countries. In particular, it forms the northern boundary of the West African states, and provides a boundary for Egypt. The Atlas Mountains provide a boundary between Morocco and the rest of Africa.

Beyond this, the natural boundaries have little to do with Africa's current political boundaries. That is because the colonial powers, when they took over Africa, set their boundaries over these natural boundaries; to deliberately divide people of the same nationalities. 

If the Sahara was grassland, of course more North African people would live there, reducing the population density of the current North African states.

Gluten is a mix of proteins that are produced in some grains, such as wheat. Rice does not naturally contain gluten in its grain

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Due to mutation.

Explanation:

Due to mutation, the rice plants are able to produce gluten like other grain crops such as wheat etc. In this mutation, change occurs in a DNA sequence of the rice plant by exposing the plant to ionized radiation. Due to this radiation, change occurs in the DNA of rice plant and the rice plant is able to produce gluten like wheat plant. So mutation is a very useful method for producing substances which a plant can't produce in its normal condition.

sasho [114]

Answer:

defensive bias

Explanation:

Defensive bias is a form of defense mechanism that people do when they are feeling a threat. Rather than acknowledging the threat, people with defensive choose to minimize the fear from the threat by attributing the cause of the threat to something that is outside of their control.

We can see this in Jared's situation.

When he received a negative review, he felt threaten that he might lost his job since he fail to met a certain standard.

To cope with the fear from the threat, he attribute it to other things and blame the management for giving 'unrealistic goals' rather than improving his productivity.
