Answer:

B. the exact age of the layers is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Absolute dating refers to the process that helps researchers determine a a specific chronology, particularly in geography and archeology. Some other terms used to refer to this process are <em>chronometric dating</em> and <em>calendar dating</em> because the word <em>absolute</em> might give the idea of total certainty or no space for failure.

Which conclusion explains Africa’s economic and government problems after independence
klemol [59]

Along with the fact that the infrastructural and industrial levels of the African colonies was never really developed by Europeans, the many various and opposing ethnic groups had no one to keep them in check now. As a result many civil wars took place between different religions, specific religious denominations, and specific ethnic groups of said religious denominations. Also nearly all of the leaders that broke free of European rule were woefully unprepared to lead a country both governmentally and economically. All of these factors are what lead to Africa's current problems.

In 1815 a volcano erupted spewing billions of tons of ash into the sky. this ash “cloud” caused global annual temperatures to dr
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

B. atmosphere: because the ash blocked more radiation than normal, not allowing it to reach the surface

Explanation:

The volcanoes are one of the major factors that shape the climate on Earth. Their influence can be more moderate and gradual, or it can very big and abrupt. The large volcanic eruptions manage to cause changes in the global climate very quickly. The reason for this is that they have big influence on the atmosphere. By releasing lot of ashes and small particles into the atmosphere, a layer of them is formed around the Earth. This layer had greater albedo, thus it is reflecting the sunlight instead of letting it go through. This causes rapid drop in the global temperatures, and as was the case in 1815, it resulted in a year without summer. If the volcanic eruption is very big and comes from a super-volcano, than it can have much longer impact, lasting for decades or even centuries.

Answer:

The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones[1], divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:

The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.

The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S and the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

Earth's climatic zones

 Ice cap

 Tundra

 Boreal

 Warm temperate

 Subtropical

 Tropical

On the basis of latitudinal extent, the globe is divided into three broad heat zones.
