6 0

Answer:

If the contour lines are close together it means that the change in elevation is very steep.

Explanation:

A is not correct because if the topography is almost flat, the contour lines would be very far apart.

B is correct because the closer the contour lines are, the steeper the topography is, meaning that the terrain is very steep.

C is not correct because if the elevation is not changing, the contour lines will be missing from that part of the map.

Galileo was the first scientist to use the telescope to study the nighttime sky. Among his discoveries were the phases of Venus
Bumek [7]

Answer and Explanation:

At the time when Galileo lived, people believed in the geocentric model of the solar system, which claimed that earth was the center of the universe, where all the celestial bodies revolved around it. By using the microscope and discovering Jupiter's natural satellites, Galileo put geocentric systems to the test. This is because he showed that the earth was not the only planet that had celestial bodies rotating around it, other planets had this capacity, like Jupiter. Today we know that Galileo is correct, but his ideas were not well received at the time.

In relation to astronomy, the science of Galileo's time was based on the Aristotelian model, which stated that the celestial bodies were smooth and had a perfect, polished surface with no irregularities. Galileo also put this concept to the test, when he was able to visualize the surface of the moon with his telescope. He saw that the moon did not have a smooth surface, but a rough one, full of irregularities, mountains and caves just like the earth. Today we know that this is true, but one more this idea was not well received by the fellow citizens of Galileo, which caused his life imprisonment for heresy.

We can see that Galileo did not receive a correct judgment from the society in which he lived and suffered for it, even though he was not doing any harm to anyone.

What kind of advantage are you likely to enjoy in a partnership
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: it can help you (if you observe well) 1) to get to know yourself better, 2) recognize relating patterns adquired from your own family, 3) leave infantile approach to relationships (we all have tendency to look for someone who will unconditionally satisfy our needs and our ego requirements) and learn to relate as adult (respecting, i.e. respect frontiers of the other and require respect, i.e. learn the other respect your boundaries), 4) leave childish, infantile dependency and become responsible for the kind of relationships we make.

Explanation: in our psyche there is always something what is called "kinship libido" that seduces us again and again to regress, to depend on parenting figures. That is why it is no easy to leave family of origin (leave not only physically but also psychologically).
