The correct answer is - flooding.
The Hurricane Katrina was a devastating one. It had very strong winds that were very destructive, and the rainfall was also very intense, but it was not what made the biggest damage in New Orleans, instead it was the flooding of the city.
New Orleans is a city that is on a very small elevation, close to sea level, so it is very vulnerable to the sea level rising, which unfortunately did happened with the Hurricane Katrina. Because of the strong winds, and the heavy rainfall, the sea started to flood the city and destroyed big portion of it. Lots of people lost their lives, and there was also a huge material damage.
Answer:
Terrestrial planets
Explanation:
There are two types of planets:
- The inner planets or terrestrial planets
- The outer planets or Jovian planets.
The outer planets are gas giants and are made of huge mounds of gases. These planets are Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Saturn. They all have satellites revolving round them.
The terrestrial planets are small rock masses. They are mercury, venus, earth and mars. Earth has one satellites and Mars has two satellites.
The asteroid belt seperates the Jovian and terrestrial planets. Beyond the Jovian planets lies the Kuiper Belt Objects or KBOs.
The Earth's surface is covered by a series of crustal plates.The ocean floors are continually moving, spreading from the center, sinking at the edges, and being regenerated.Convection currents beneath the plates move the crustal plates in different directions.The source of heat driving the convection currents is radioactivity deep in the Earths mantle.
The tropical forest covers most of the land.
