Geography

Answer:

The chart shows the total number of individuals across the world who are defined as undernourished.

Globally we see a falling – although variable – trend over the last few decades. The total number of undernourished has been steadily falling. However, over the last few years, the total number increased by around 40 million, reaching 821 million in 2017.

The UN FAO have linked this increase in undernourishment in particular to the rising extent of conflict-affected countries (which is often a leading cause of famine), and compounded by climate-related factors such as the El Niño phenomenon (which can inflict both drought and flood conditions).3,4

Global number of people who are undernourished

Total number of people who are defined as undernourished. An individual is considered to be undernourished when

dietary energy consumption is less than a pre-determined threshold. This threshold is country specific and is measured

in terms of the number of kilocalories required to conduct sedentary or light activities.

2. What effect did the geography of ancient Greece<br> have on its early development?
Alik [6]

Answer:

The geography of ancient Greece determined and restricted its development to only certain areas, such as sea trade.

Explanation:

Ancient Greece, or rather the Hellenic city-states, are considered as one of the most developed civilizations of their time, though there can be made a solid case against it. Anyhow, in the early stages of the development of these city-states, they were very restricted in their development because of geographic factors.

The climate was of the Mediterranean type, which is a good climate, but problem was that the topography was rugged and mountainous, so agriculture was very limited to only a handful of crops and herding. Because all of the city-states had access to the sea, they focused on developing trade through it, with goods such as grapes, wine, olives, olives, and olive oil the most traded. They needed good wood for building ships, and they didn't really have any of that type. This made them heavily dependent on the Macedonians who had an abundance of wood, and considering that there was open hate between the two, it was not an ideal situation.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

a) horizontally

Explanation:

If the sewage sludge is disposed of into the deep water , then the density gradient separates the surface water from the deep water,

the internal waves transport wastes horizontally .

<u>When the transport of the particles is dominated by the tides ,wind and the  density gradients, the movement is essentially in horizontal direction whereas the vertical transport of the particles is mainly driven by gravity and also by some other processes that occur at the sediment-water interface.</u>
