The tropical forests can roughly be divided into two major groups, tropical evergreen forests and tropical deciduous forests. The division is made in accordance to the characteristics of the trees.
The trees in the tropical evergreen forests are green throughout all of the year. The reason behind this is that they have constant temperature all year long, and constantly high amounts of rainfall all year long, so there is no need for them to shed their leaves.
The trees in the tropical deciduous forests, on the other hand, are shedding their leaves. This means that in one part of the year these trees have green leaves, while in the other part of the year they are shedding their leaves and the branches are stripped. The main reason behind this is that the rainfall occurs only seasonally, when pretty much all rainfall for the year falls in few months. After that, a very long period of drought and very high temperatures starts. In order to survive and not get damaged, the trees are shedding their leaves, thus they almost put them selves in an hibernating phase until the next rainy season.
Answer: The correct answer is : (2) all inorganic rocks except igneous rocks are formed from other rocks
Explanation: Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of magma, the process is slow if it is in the crust and fast if it is on the surface.
Sedimentary rocks are formed on the surface of the earth by processes of erosion and alteration of pre-existing rocks.
Metamorphic rocks have been formed by the evolution of another previous rock due to the environment to which it is subjected that may be hotter, colder or of a different pressure.
The correct option is C.
The position of a place on the equator is usually measured in degree of latitude. Latitude is the geographical coordinate, which specifies the north south position of a point on the earth surface. Lines of latitudes are called parallels. The equator is zero degree, the north pole is 90 degree north and the south pole is 90 degree south.
This is true. The best can be seen on examples such as the great depression which led to numerous other issues, while the roaring twenties when everything was calm and sound were also very politically stable for the lives of Americans.
