Which statement best describes the populations of countries in the Sahel?

1 answer:

8 0

The Sahel part of Africa includes (from west to east) parts of northern Senegal, southern Mauritania, central Mali, northern Burkina Faso, the extreme south of Algeria, Niger, the extreme north of Nigeria, central Chad, central and southern Sudan, the extreme north of South Sudan, Eritrea, Cameroon, Central African Republic and the extreme north of Ethiopia

Traditionally, most of the people in the Sahel have been semi-nomads, farming and raising livestock in a system of transhumance, which is probably the most sustainable way of utilizing the Sahel. The difference between the dry North with higher levels of soil nutrients and the wetter South with more vegetation, is utilized by having the herds graze on high quality feed in the North during the wet season, and trek several hundred kilometers to the South to graze on more abundant, but less nutritious feed during the dry period

Answer:

Option C: Reflexivity

Explanation:

Reflexivity is an attitude of attending systematically to the context of knowledge construction, especially to the effect of the researcher, at every step of the research process.

Reflexivity is really important in qualitative research because there are so many ways in which researcher bias could affect the study, from the creation of data gathering tools, to collecting the data, analysing it and reporting it. Understanding these effects can be an important part of research processes.

HELP ME PLEASE If you apply 50 lbs of force to an object that weighs 49.5 lbs, describe what would happen to the object and how

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The force applied will cause the object to be displaced from its equilibrium position.

However, the motion caused by the force on the object will be slight/minimal because of the small difference between the weight of the object and the force applied.

Explanation:

The weight of the object, W = 49.5 lbs

Force applied, F = 50 lbs

From the information given, it is observed that the force applied is greater than the weight of the object, i.e. F > W

Since, the force applied is greater than the weight of the object, the force applied is sufficient to cause a displacement of the object from the equilibrium position since it is known that the only cause of motion is force.
