The drawing of the boundaries in the manner of the interest of the European colonial powers resulted in very big problems once the African countries were granted independence.

The problems were mostly because people from the same ethnic groups were separated by borders, but were in the same ones with people from other ethnic groups, usually historical rivals with whom they had bad relations. Also, the religious factor had a big influence, as there were multiple countries were some parts were predominantly of one religion, and other parts of other religion, and that brought in even more tensions.

That has resulted in instability, constant tensions, civil wars, terrorist organizations, separatist movements, genocides, pretty much everything that is not supposed to happen for a country to prosper.

Burka [1]

The correct answer is A. An oak tree

Explanation:

The term "primary producer" is used to describe organisms that can produce their own energy without feeding on others, this includes plants and algae that produce food and energy through photosynthesis using light and other inorganic compounds. Additionally, the primary producers can be identified because in ecosystems they are always on the first level and they are eaten by others.

According to this, the one that is a primary producer is an oak tree because this is a type of plant and therefore can produce its food through photosynthesis different to others that need to feed on other organisms to obtain energy.

dolphi86 [110]

The statement underlying mantle layer is molten where convection currents cause the movement of the lithospheric plates explains the movement of these lithospheric plates.

<h3>What is tectonic plate movement? </h3>

The theory discusses how Earth's surface is composed out of rigid slabs of <em>rock</em> that are known as plates. These <u>large pieces </u>of plates under the Earth's surface are regarded as the lithosphere.

Therefore, convection currents that appear in the mantle lead to movements in the plates due to the flow of current to heat up the mantle.
