What is an important difference between Western Europe economies and eastern urope exonomies?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The big difference between Eastern Europe and Western Europe is that Eastern Europe consists of countries that once belonged to the Soviet block, unlike the Western half. Economically, the Western Europe nations are much more advanced than the Eastern Europe nations. Western Europe outputs a lot more cash due to a larger free trade and more open economy as a whole.

At high elevations or high latitudes, some of the water that falls on the land does not immediately soak in (infiltrate), runoff
Oliga [24]

Answer: Snowfield or Glacier

Explanation:

The higher one goes, the colder it becomes. This affects water as well when it falls to the earth. If it falls in an area that is cold such as high elevation areas, it would end up freezing up and becoming snow.

When this happens, it would usually be stored in an area with other snow such as a snowfield or a glacier. This is why high mountains usually have snow caps. Mt. Kilimanjaro for instance in is Mid-Africa, a region which gets no snow whatsoever yet, it still has a snow cap.
