  2. Lines of longitudes: These are imaginary lines that run around the Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are also termed as meridians. The Prime Meridian is located at 0° and the lines of longitude run east and west of Prime Meridian. There are 360 longitudes in total (180 east and 180 west of Prime Meridian).

How does this photograph illustrate the experience of many immigrants in cities on the East Coast?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When immigrants arrived to the East Coast of the United States in the 19th Century, they tended to move into neighborhoods in which members of their nationality already lived.

This was practical as the immigrants would be able to assimilate easier and would not feel as isolated in the new country. The established immigrants could also be a useful source of information and could help in difficult times.

These neighborhoods were located in the large East Coast cities and came to be small representations of the home country of the immigrants that founded them.

Why are winter days colder than summer days? The sun is up for less time in the winter. The sun is farther away in the winter. T
Alex17521 [72]

Many people believe that the temperature becomes lower in winters and higher in summers 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. The main reason behind these temperature changes in different seasons is because the earth's axis is tilted. It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis.

In what type of situation would it be more important to know about weather<br> instead of climate
maria [59]

Answer:

Daily weather forecast or any kind of natural disaster

Explanation:

Climate is the pattern and state of weather conditions in a long period, spreading over few years. As such, it can tell us what kind of weather we can expect in a certain period of the year. The weather is dependent on climate.

Yet, <u>climate can’t tell us the daily prognosis in detail. </u><u>We might know certain periods in some locations mean a bigger chance of rainfall, but we do not know if we should bring the umbrella with us today. That is why we need weather –</u><u> to tell us current weather and the one upcoming in the near future, so we can adapt to it.</u>

This also goes for natural disasters. Climate can’t foresee if the natural disaster will hit some location at a certain moment in the long future, but weather tells us if something is coming soon and if we should prepare.
