Answer:

*Relief rainfall

*Convection rainfall

*Frontal rainfall

Explanation:

Relief rainfall: Relief or orographic rain is formed when air is forced to cool when it rises over relief features in the landscape such as hills or mountains. As it rises it cools, condenses, and forms rain. The highest rainfall totals of over 1,600 mm per year occur in the mountain areas along the west coast.

Convection rainfall: occurs when the energy of the sun heats the surface of the Earth, causing water to evaporate to form water vapour. When the land heats up, it warms the air above it. This causes the air to expand and rise. As the air rises it cools and condenses.

Frontal rainfall: is caused by cyclonic activity and it occurs along the fronts of the cyclone. It is formed when two masses of air of different temperature, humidity and density meets. For example, meeting of - moisture-laden warm tropical wind with a polar air mass. A layer separating them is called the front .

Which statements about agricultural production in Africa is false
nikdorinn [45]

The false statement is -

a. Agricultural production has increased slightly since 1960.

The agricultural production in Africa, since 1960 until the present, has been increasing at a moderate rate, not at a small rate. If it was only a slight increase, considering the ever-growing population on the continent (it is the continent with fastest and biggest growth of population) than very big portion of the ''plus'' population would have died from starvation. The continent definitely needs bigger production, especially for its own needs, but it has to be said that little by little the situation is getting better at some regions.

padilas [110]
It’s true By the end of the 19th century, the Western powers and Japan had forced China’s ruling Qing dynasty to accept wide foreign control over the country’s economic affairs. In the Opium Wars (1839-42, 1856-60), popular rebellions and the Sino-Japanese War (1894-95), China had fought to resist the foreigners, but it lacked a modernized military and suffered millions of casualties.
