The Yellow River fertilizes the land by depositing what to the land?<br> loess<br> mud<br> dirt
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Loess.

Explanation:

The Yellow River is the second longest river in China and the fourth longest single river on earth. There are different numbers for its length, depending on the measurement method: 4845 kilometers is the most common one. Its catchment area covers 752,443 km². The river takes its name from the yellowish color that is created by loess that has been removed and washed into the river via streams and tributaries, which in turn fertilizes the land when it floods over its streams, making fertile land on its way.

What geographic term can be used to describe the Maldives? (a group of small islands)
Nostrana [21]
<h2>Answer: Atoll</h2>

An atoll is an oceanic coral island, usually in the shape of a circular ring, which may be completely or partially closed. It is also called by this term to the set of several small islands that are part of a coral reef, with an interior lagoon that generally communicates  with the sea.

Atolls are formed when a coral reef grows around an oceanic volcanic island, as the island sinks into the ocean and disappears underwater,  the growth of the coral increases until reaching the sea level, where the action of the wind and the waves erode it and transform it into sand.  

It should be noted that this process can take millions of years.

In this sense, the Maldives, an island country located in the Indian Ocean (southwest of Sri Lanka and a few kilometers from India), has these characteristics.

Its territory is organized in 26 atolls and as a country it is constituted by some 1200 islands.
