Answer: Option (C)

This deposited sands and other materials connects the shore to an island and this features are known as tombolo.

How does the advancement of women's rights serve as the foundation of India's policies to discourage population growth?
Doss [256]
When Women's rights increase so too usually does their formal education, which allows them to have more high paying jobs and they can then tell their husbands, no I cannot have a kid right now because I have to work and support this family and the husband cannot say no because if she gets pregnant they lose income, party of which is why Japan has such a low birth rate, because they have a very high women working rate. But on the other hand Niger has a very low amount of women in the work force, this is because they have very little rights. I hope I helped I learned this in Ap human geography class

Describe the behaviour of the atmospher<br>according to temperature change​
Gekata [30.6K]
As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.
