Answer:

We can use the example of the Greater Accra region, one of the new regions of Ghana.

Explanation:

The Greater Accra region consists essentially of the city of Accra, and its immediate sorroundings, and has over 4 million people.

As the most populated region in the country, its regional economy is the most important for Ghana. It is where a great part of the country's industrial and service sectors are located. The reason for this is geographical: people living close to each other in cities tend to form closer economic ties that increase efficiency and productivity.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

a) Developed → best quality of life

b) Newly industrializing → second best quality of life

c) Developing → third best quality of life

d) Least developed → lowest quality life

Explanation:

a) Developed - highest quality of life

These are regions characterised by sophisticated economies (high Gross Domestic Product, high per capita income), technological advancements, diverse industrial and service sectors. These factors culminate in a good social welfare and high standard of living; it is the highest quality of life on the national development scale.

b) Newly industrializing - second best quality of life

These are regions whose development is below the developed but above the developing. These are regions transitioning from agro-allied based economies to industrial-based economy, medium per capital income. They have a fairly high standard of living & are thus the second on the scale of national development.

c) Developing - third best quality of life

These are regions characterised by a low or medium proportion of industrialisation as compared to the region's populace, low or medium standard of living, lower per capital income. They are ranked third on the national development scale.

d) Least developed - lowest quality life

These regions have the lowest socio-economic indicators. These regions are well below the poverty line, they are economically vulnerable and have weakened human resource. These are ranked the base of the national development scale.

Describe the tilt of the Earth compared to the Sun, during summer vs. winter in New York City.

andrew11 [14]

It is all about the tilt of the Earth’s axis. Many people believe that the temperature changes because the Earth is closer to the sun in summer and farther from the sun in winter. In fact, the Earth is farthest from the sun in July and is closest to the sun in January!

During the summer, the sun’s rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures.

During the winter, the sun’s rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot. Also, the long nights and short days prevent the Earth from warming up. Thus, we have winter!
