Answer:
Poor planning, and disease
Explanation:
The obstacles that the French faced while attempting to build a canal across Panama were diseases and poor planning. The French dealt with constant outbreaks of malaria and yellow fever, which slowed construction and caused the deaths of thousands of workers. The French also did not take into consideration the geographical differences between the Suez Canal region and the Panama region. The French had succeeded in building a canal at sea level in Egypt, and they mistakenly thought a similar design would work in Panama. However, the difference in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean sea levels, as well as the difference in elevation of the Panamanian terrain, prevented them from building a sea-level canal. The United States knew about these two problems when they undertook the project. They took preventative measures by reducing the disease-spreading mosquito population and using a canal-lock system to overcome the elevation obstacle in Panama.
Answer:
the time of the lowest temperature.
Explanation:
Relative humidity simply talks about the ratio of the quantity of water the air contains at any given time, to the highest quantity of water the air could ever have. So when the water vapor content in air remains constant while the temperature falls, then the relative humidity tends to increase. This phenomenon usually takes place in the morning when the sun is yet to come out and the temperature is usually cooler. When sun peaks, afternoon sets in, the relative humidity then reduces.

Answer:
The correct answer is C. This maps represents the triangle trade.
Explanation:
The triangular trade was a slave trade in which manufactured goods such as alcohol, metal containers, clothing and firearms were transported from Great Britain (especially Liverpool). Cargo transported in Africa was exchanged for slaves transported to America or the West Indies. The slaves were replaced with sugar, cotton, rum and tobacco. For the shipowner, the deal was risky but very profitable. Each stage was profitable and the cost of the ship could be recovered in just a few trips. The triangle trade was practiced on a full scale since the 17th century and reached its peak in the late 18th century.
