A geographic information system is information that is:
Example: Importance of the spatial component of the GIS (localization of objects, and processes, spatial interactions between elements).
Answer: Letter Choice, (C), Organized Spatially.
Hope that helps!!!! : )
Answer:
oceanic crust sinks because it is denser and has higher specific gravity than the more silicon aluminum enriched continental crust. What drives substitution is convection and conduction in outer core of earth, that heat , only a small part of which is due radioactive isotopes, has to make it's way to Earth's surface by both conduction and convection. Iron and nickel o have the highest specific gravities of the 10 most common elements in the Milky Way Galaxy. This is why oceanic crust sinks and is subducted continental crust has to have a lot more force applied before it inks, because it doesn't want to sink.
Answer: The ice has been melting and declining
Explanation:
Due to an increase in industrialization, global warming is occurring. This has increased the average temperature around the globe considerably.
As you probably know, ice needs to be in a cold environment to stay frozen. <em>Arctic sea ice</em>, which is ice that floats in the sea near the Arctic, <em>has been </em><em>melting</em> due to global warming.
In addition, the land ice on Antarctica and Greenland has <em>also been </em><em>melting</em> due to global warming. The increase in average temperatures around the globe has created an environment that is <em>too warm</em> for ice.
In conclusion, <em>global warming</em> has caused Arctic sea ice, and land ice on Antarctica and Greenland, to <em>melt</em>. The globe <em>is warmer than it once was</em>. This means that the water that once was frozen is now melting. If we don't stop heating the planet, <em>sea levels will rise </em>due to the melting ice, and catastrophe will occur. Tens of thousands of animals will die, homes will be lost, and storms will increase in intensity and frequency if we don't reverse the effects of global warming <u><em>now.</em></u>
Save the Arctic, please.
Answer:
Correct answer is 4. Under 2.5 people per sq. mi. (VERY low density)
Explanation:
Option four is the correct because areas such as Sahara have a low density and are not populated. The conditions of living are not allowing people in these type of areas to create some larger permanent settlements. The similar case is for example in Australia where 3/4 is covered with desert, which is practically uninhabited. Or we can also created a parallel with Greenland which also has a low density due to climate factor.
Regional volcanism is associated with mountain building.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mountain building which is also known as the orogeny is the geological process such as movement of tectonic plates and volcanic activities because of which the mountains are formed by the pressure on the earth's crust when the plates collide.
So the occurring of volcanoes in a particular region along the plate boundaries where there is some movement in the tectonic plates might result in the formation of a mountain.
