The correct answers are first blank, Mercator. The second blank, azimuthal equidistant.

The types of projections that are described below are Lines of latitude and longitude intersect at right angles on a Mercator projection map. The azimuthal equidistant projection map is useful for planning air routes.

German cartographer Gerardus Mercator was the first to develop the cylindrical map projector or Mercator projector in 1569. It was of much help for navigators. On the other hand, the azimuthal equidistant projection map shows equidistant projections. In a map like this, all of its points have proportional correct distances from the center of the map. It is a polar projection that shows the meridians.

Answer:

Blank 1 : Methane

Blank 2: Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

A rotting biomass would emit a huge proportion of methane. Microbes work on waste products and releases methane and other gases. Methane is the primary biogas obtained from a decaying biomass. Methane can be used as a source of fuel for both industrial and domestic purposes.

Burning of biomass would produce carbon dioxide to a large extent. Methane produced would fuel the burning process so as to release significant amount of carbon dioxide.

If a stream cuts through the narrow neck of land separating two meanders, the abandoned meander loops may become isolated to for
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

oxbow lake

Explanation:

The meander usually originates in the rivers located in the alluvial plains that have almost no slopes due to the sediments of the earth that commonly settle in the convex areas of the meander. However, in the concave areas, thanks to the operation of forces of centrifugal characteristics, greater erosion is generated and the banks are diminished.

If the natural action of the erosion of water and sediments causes two curvilinear channels to be found between them, the river will react through the area where the currents exert opposition and in this way it will originate a horseshoe lake or oxtail (in English usually called <u>oxbow lake</u>) because the sediments will block the entry of water and the exit of the previous meander, which will cause it to be outside the river path.
