Answer:

D. from directly overhead.

Explanation:

The Sun rays reaches Earth's surface directly overhead at the equator. An equator is an imaginary line, that tends to divide the Northern hemisphere and Southern hemisphere equally, constituting the parallel of latitude 0 degree.

Since the Earth is tilted on its axis, the surface at the poles receives less of Sun rays and is cooler, and at the equator, the Solar energy strikes directly overhead making the area more warm than others.

Therefore, option D is correct.

Governments are important because why?

swat32

Governments have many functions, but most importantly:

- they organize defense of a country: we are stronger together than separately!
- they provide (or at least should!) things that everyone needs but noone has an incentive to do on their own: infrastructure, care of elderly, general health care (it's actually cheaper for the whole society to be in a social care program than to deal with the lack of it!)

Describe evidence of how you have experienced socioeconomic adversity.

mrs_skeptik [129]

I'll answer this base on a general point of view. Socioeconomic adversity is synonymous with inequality therefore in all underdeveloped countries is experienced by the lack of resources to access different services such as health, education etc which translates into a reduction in the quality of life which can mean a lower expectation of life in some regions.
