I think the answer is the epicentre
Climate is a consistent temperature and weather that usually changes little throughout the years. The answer should be A because this describes the general year-to-year weather.
Answer:
Distances for latitude are North degrees or South of the Equator.
Explanation:
Latitudinal lines are imaginary lines created by humans to serve their needs. These lines run from east to west as closed lines, or rather circles. Their starting point is the Equator which marks the middle part of Earth, and they spread from it in a northern and southern direction until the poles.
The Equator is at 0 degrees of latitude, and as mentioned it is the starting point for measuring all of the other latitudinal lines. There are latitudinal lines that stretch until 90 degrees North and 90 degrees South. The purpose of these lines is to help in orientation and to help with the absolute location of any place on Earth (in combination with the longitudianl lines). Also, they are very good in roughly representing the climate zones on Earth, the amount of sunlight a place gets, and dividing the globe into Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
Answer:
Many experts believe that the Interoceanic Highway will lead to increased deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest.
Explanation:
The Amazon Rainforest is located in South America and it is the largest rainforest in the world. This rainforest though has been under immense pressure because of the destruction of it by human activities and interests. The Amazon Rainforest is shrinking rapidly and if this tempo continues it will be gone in the near future and the whole world will feel the consequences.
Apart from the opening space for agriculture, mining, ranching, urbanization, this rainforest is predicted to suffer losses because of the Interoceanic Highway as well. This highway is a project with which there will be a highway starting from the Pacific coast in Peru and ending at the Atlantic coast in Brazil. A big portion of this highway will pass through the Amazon rainforest and with it a lot of deforestation will take place. While deforestation itself will have terrible effects, the biodiversity will suffer because its territory will be cut and separated, and a lot of animals will be killed on the highway by the traffic.
