<u />
<u>Explanation</u>: Volcanic activity has played an important role in the creation of the Cascade Mountains as they were originally created through the subduction of two continental plates.
It is well known that gold deposists are often found through volcanic systems. Water heated by volcanoes will become very acid and thus dissolve surrounding rocks. This water that will contain gold and other metals will then follow fractures through the bedrock towards the surface. In time, these will turn into gold veins or lodes.
The Coriolis force deflects air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere.
The correct answer is all of the above.
The Earth's physical features affect people's choice of occupation because different geographical locations are suited to different jobs. For instance, if a person resides on the countryside, he or she is much more likely to be a farmer compared to someone who lives in the desert. Similarly, people who live next to a water body are more likely to use a ferry compared to people who do not live near water bodies. Lastly, recreational activities are also affected by the geographical features of a location. For instance, someone living in Iceland, is more likely to be a regular skier compared to someone living in California.
Answer: d. focuses on three major flows of air
Explanation:
The conveyor belt model is a three dimensional way of viewing cyclones. It shows the upper flow of three air streams: the warm, the cold and the dry air streams through the life cycle of a cyclone.
This model it is a development on older illustrative models such as the Bergen model by providing information about upper air interactions as well as clouds and precipitation associated with cyclones.
