Answer:
e. Transform fault
Explanation:
The San Andreas tectonic feature is of transform fault type. This basically means that we have in question a fault that has been formed at or near a transform plate boundary. In this case, it is the transform plate boundary between the North American tectonic plate and the Juan de Fuca tectnic plate. It has to be noticed though that Juan de Fuca is actually not a single plate anymore, but instead it has cracked into three smaller parts, with the part being nearby San Andreas making a transform plate boundary with the North American plate. In this type of boundary, the plates slide past each other, but they still manage to create a lot of tension around the boundary, resulting in cracks in the crust, or rather faults. The faults are parallel with the boundary, and can vary a lot in width and depth, and one of the best examples in the world for this type of fault is San Andreas in California.
Answer: 15 degrees and it is 2:02 in America
Explanation:
Standard or “Nautical” time zones are 15 degrees of longitude wide. The first central meridian is the Prime Meridian, 0° E/W. The next central meridians are at 15°E and 15° W.
The deforestation of the Amazon rainforest to create land for the large-scale livestock rearing for meat destroys the water catchment area, leading to the water shortages and global warming.

It is a city where you can find a Turkish-style architecture in the center, Austria-Hungarian architecture and Yugoslav architecture - 3 historical styles in one city.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The use of shadows to determine an objects height from aerial photographs is an essential part of satellite image interpretation. The length of the shadow is used to determine the height.
Orthophoto is a type of satellite imagery that has been adjusted using special devices. This kind of imagery is correct geometrically, this means it can be used to measure actual distances One notable fact about orthophoto is the fact that the side of the images can not be seen. The use of shadows to determine an objects height can compliment the geometrically accurate photos. That makes the shadow feature of a satellite image important to orthophotography.
