Describe how latitude and longitude coordinates are used to locate positions on Earth.

Geography
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Latitude and longitude are used to locate positions by using degrees of how far away they are from either the equator (latitude) or the Greenwich Meridian (longitude).

Explanation:

This is an example that I looked up to help explain it but the Empire State Building is 40.7484° N, 73.9857° W - meaning that using latitude and longitude, we can go 40.7484 degrees north and 73.9857 degrees west.

Why are floods in urban areas particularly dangerous?
Igoryamba
In urban areas, there are more people, therefore not a lot of farmland. (that eliminates C) If city buildings don't allow flood waters to recede, that could be dangerous in many ways. (So A is still a reasonable answer) If most cities are built in flood zones, there should be some form of shelter if houses aren't safe. Pollutants and diseases being carried in water are already dangerous, but easier to spread with rapid flood waters that are sweeping everywhere. So your best answer would be either A or B.
