The answer is lithosphere.
Earthquakes are caused by shifts in the outer layers of Earth—a region called the lithosphere.
(1) Meteorological/Climate factor:
-Rainfall intensity
-Rainfall amount
-Rainfall duration
-Distribution of rainfall over the drainage basin.
(2) Phsyiographic factors (e.g. watershed)
- watershed size
-Watershed shape
-watershed slope
(3) Vegetation
- Dense vegetation leads to less run-off while sparse vegetation leads to more run-off.
(4) Urban development.
- Roads and buildings have do not allow infiltration into the soil. Water will therefore run off directly into the stream, at a very fast rate and in significant volume.
<h3>Peruvian adaptations to their physical environment</h3>
Explanation:
The Peruvians adapted to their natural environment of high altitude mountains like the Andes. The mountains created environmental challenges like low temperature, decreased precipitation, poor thin soil etc.
The Peruvians utilized the mountains in the most sustainable and efficient way both for agriculture as well as irrigation purposes. They followed terrace agriculture along the high mountain regions and built aqueducts to supply water for drinking and irrigation.
The agricultural terraces were constructed in such a way it received a good amount of sunlight even though sunlight was blocked by the surrounding high mountains. The crops were spaced widely to ensure proper sunlight and crop growth.
The irrigation system through aqueducts was constructed to prevent flooding.
Answer:
Coriolis effect: The return flight from Seattle to Harton is towards South East of Seattle
Explanation:
As the plane travels in air towards south, the air will carry it to the east, giving it that eastward velocity as a result of coriolis effect. The acceleration increase is as a result of the southward speed of the airplane.
