The answer is d I took the test
Answer:
-Commercial jet aircraft fly in the lower stratosphere to avoid the turbulence which is common in the troposphere below. The stratosphere is very dry; air there contains little water vapor. Because of this, few clouds are found in this layer; almost all clouds occur in the lower, more humid troposphere.
Answer:
Options (B)
Explanation:
New Zealand is an island country, located adjacent to the great pacific ocean. Whereas, the country of Australia is located towards the north-western side of New Zealand, at a distance of about 2500 miles.
The capital of Australia is Canberra, and the capital of New Zealand is Wellington.
Most of the interior Australia is comprised of desert where there occurs little or no rainfall, whereas there occurs large mountains at the central portion of New Zealand and is mainly due to the presence of active plate margin.
There are about 600 large islands in New Zealand, and majority of its population lives in Aukland, which is located in the extreme northern side of the country.
Thus, the correct statement is option (B).
The regions of light and unpredictable winds at about 30° No latitudes are called <u>trade winds</u>
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Trade winds are the latitudes which cool and descend at 30 degree north and are areas with surface winds but these surface winds are light and unpredictable. These are the winds that blow towards the equator.
Trade winds blow at an average speed of about 5 to 6 meters per second and these winds are unpredictable. These winds are warm winds and therefore they pick up moisture and bring heavy rainfall.
Answer:
Delta
Explanation:
Delta is a geographical term that describes the formation of wetlands. It is formed from the slow movement of water and deposit from a river into a larger water body. For example lake, sea and ocean. A vivid example is a place where the River Nile moves at a slower pace into the Mediterranean Sea.
Hence, in this case, as a river reaches its mouth it is often affected by incoming tides resulting in a formation called a DELTA.
