Answer:

b. Antarctica's ice

Explanation:

Earth is flatter at the South Pole than the North Pole because of the weight of the Antarctica's ice.

The Antarctica ice  cap is the largest single mass of ice on earth. It covers almost 14 million square kilometers and it weighs 26,500,000 Gigatons.

As a result of this heavy weight, it compresses the South Pole of the earth causing the earth to be flatter at the South Pole.

This gives the Earth its slight pear shape.

How do hurricanes affect Central America and the Caribbean?
serious [3.7K]

The hurricanes have negative, often devastating effects on the Caribbean and Central America.

Explanation:

Both, the Caribbean an Central America, are located in areas where there is high hurricane activity. These two regions are not well developed, but instead they are developing, and there is large scale poverty, which unfortunately doesn't go well in a combination with the hurricanes. Every year, several hurricanes of varying sizes hit these regions, and the effects are devastating more often than not.

Because the people are poor in general, as well as the countries themselves, the infrastructure is of very bad quality. The systems for warning are either non-existent or not very efficient. When stronger hurricanes hit these two regions suffer badly as most of the infrastructure gets destroyed. The bad organization results in lot of people ending up without any help or with little to no medical assistance. Hundreds of thousands of people every year end up homeless, badly injured, or dead, and part of the reason for that is that the warning systems often don't work properly and don't notify the people on time to take cover in safer grounds.

Some of the countries that often have huge problems because of hurricanes are:

  • Haiti
  • Dominican Republic
  • Belize
  • Cuba
