The plates beneath the Earth's surface are moving and also colliding with one another. These collisions cause compression of the rocks, resulting in the production of stress. Faults form and spread when the rocks can be compressed no more and they "break". This breakage releases energy and the energy is felt as seismic waves in an earthquake.
A) Bangladesh was formed as a result of partitioning India
Answer:
The coastal regions and river valleys are the places where the populations are mostly concentrated.
Explanation:
The first option is not correct because the mountainous regions are generally avoided by the people, and the populations are usually (with exceptions around the Equator) small and sparse.
The second option is correct because the coastal regions enable the people to be very mobile, connected with other people through the water, have an abundance of food at disposal, and the climate is more pleasant.
The third option is correct because the river valleys, especially the ones where larger rivers pass through, have always been attractive for the people because of the abundance of freshwater, an abundance of fertile soil, and being able to use the rivers for traveling and trade.
The fourth option is not correct because the deserts are places that don't provide good living conditions, and often lack any conditions for that matter, so the people don't settle in them in large numbers.
<h2>
Answer: Average temperatures would increase.</h2>
Explanation:
Radiative forcing refers to the <u>change in the net flow of radiative energy towards the surface of the Earth</u>. This is due to internal changes in the composition of the atmosphere, or changes in the external contribution of the energy that comes from the Sun.
To determine this, measurements are taken at the upper edge of the troposphere, in order to obtain the difference between the radiation absorbed by the Earth and the energy radiated back into space.
It should be noted that a positive value of radiative forcing contributes to heating the Earth's surface, while a negative value contributes to its cooling.
Therefore, if the radiative forcing increases <u>the average temperature will increase as well.</u>
