It has been cut against the grain.
Wooding ripping is basically a type of cutting that severs or divides a piece of wood parallel to the grain. Often with a rip saw, the rip saw works more like a series of chisels, lifting off small splinters of wood.
Rip cuts are usually made with a table saw, but other types of power saws can also be used, saws such as a band saw and radial arm saw can be used, however, at the sawmill, the head saw is the first rip-saw a wood goes through.
Answer:
Africa is the region that has population growth based on a high total fertility rate.
Explanation:
On this graph, we can see that the predictions for the global population are that it will continue to grow. That is not to say that there will be proportional growth in all regions though, as there are differences from one region to another. There's one region that will have exponential growth, one that will have minor growth, two will stagnate, and one will actually experience a slight decline.
The only region that will have a big population growth is Africa. The reason for this is that this region is predicted to retain its very high total fertility rate. With the living conditions gradually improving over time, especially the healthcare system, this will lead to big decline in the mortality rate, which will even more pronounce the large fertility rate, so the population will rapidly grow.
Florida panhandle (west Florida)
Most likely D.
Melting it will severly contribute to global warming, releasing methane and causing a positive feedback loop causing more permafrost to melt.
