Gravity causes mass movement. Types of mass movement: landslides, mudslides, slump, and creep. The most destructive kind of mass movement is a landslide, which occurs when rock and soil slide quickly down a steep slope.
All layers are incredibly important. If we didn't, we would die very quickly and life would be inhabitable. The radiation from the son would kill us. The heat from the sun would dry up water and kill crops leaving us with no food/water.
Human Geography is the answer to the study of people
Answer:
Correct answer is Wegener had no compelling mechanism to explain what would cause the continents to move.
Explanation:
A is not correct as through his researches he presented his theory to other scientist.
B is not correct as Wegener was very educated, and was even even working as a professor at University.
C is correct that although he presented his theory, he couldn't explain totally how it happened.
D is not correct as during his lifetime his theory wasn't widely accepted. That happened 20 years after his death.
The second assumption is that there is something exceptional about Africa, that while other continents and peoples have got or are getting richer, Africans, for reasons we can think but no longer speak in polite company, choose to remain in poverty. Our capacity to see Africa as divergent lets us off the hook so we don’t have to understand our own complicity in the challenges various African countries face today. It also means we rarely rage as we should against the actions of the corporations and governments that profit from instability, corruption or even inexperience (African negotiators at the climate talks have historically been disadvantaged by their lack of experience and the expectation among western negotiators that they should be grateful with whatever they get).
If there is, then, no innate propensity for corruption, violence or poverty in Africa, then the narratives that fuel the stereotypes need questioning. One possible explanation comes from the Nigerian author Chinua Achebe, who said: “The west seems to suffer deep anxieties about the precariousness of its civilisation and to have a need for constant reassurance by comparison with Africa.” Perhaps it’s not Africa that needs saving, but us.
