Answer:

a) Developed → best quality of life

b) Newly industrializing → second best quality of life

c) Developing → third best quality of life

d) Least developed → lowest quality life

Explanation:

a) Developed - highest quality of life

These are regions characterised by sophisticated economies (high Gross Domestic Product, high per capita income), technological advancements, diverse industrial and service sectors. These factors culminate in a good social welfare and high standard of living; it is the highest quality of life on the national development scale.

b) Newly industrializing - second best quality of life

These are regions whose development is below the developed but above the developing. These are regions transitioning from agro-allied based economies to industrial-based economy, medium per capital income. They have a fairly high standard of living & are thus the second on the scale of national development.

c) Developing - third best quality of life

These are regions characterised by a low or medium proportion of industrialisation as compared to the region's populace, low or medium standard of living, lower per capital income. They are ranked third on the national development scale.

d) Least developed - lowest quality life

These regions have the lowest socio-economic indicators. These regions are well below the poverty line, they are economically vulnerable and have weakened human resource. These are ranked the base of the national development scale.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Country X has the higher natural increase rate.

Explanation:

Natural increase rate is the excess of fertility over mortality, that is, the difference between the number of births and deaths over a period of time; making the basis for population growth.

As Country X has a crude birth rate of 40 and a crude death rate of 15, its population's natural increase rate is 25. In turn, Country Y has a crude birth rate of 20 and a crude death rate of 9, so its population's natural increase rate is 11. So, as we can see, Country X has a higher natural increase rate.

Describe the Earth’s two forest biomes. How are these two biomes different from one another?

BARSIC [14]

Aquatic Biome

The aquatic biome consists of any part of Earth that is covered with water. This includes freshwater and salt water. The aquatic biome can be further divided into freshwater biomes, marine biomes, wetland biomes, coral reef biomes, and estuaries. These subdivisions are based on the salt content of the water, the aquatic plants that live there, and the aquatic animals that thrive there.

Forest Biome

The forest biome is the largest and has a wide variety of plants, trees, animals, insects, and microscopic organisms. The major characteristic of the forest biome is its trees. About 30% of the Earth is considered a part of the forest biome. The forest biome is subdivided by its climate and types of trees present. These subdivisions are: the rainforest biome, temperate biome, chaparral biome, alpine biome, and taiga biome.

Desert Biome

The desert biome has one major, distinguishing characteristic, the fact that it has very little vegetation. The climate is rather extreme depending on its location. The deserts of Africa are extremely hot during the winters and warm throughout the rest of the year. There are also cold deserts such as those in Antarctica. These deserts are extremely cold during the winter and cold during the other seasons.

Tundra Biome

Tundra biomes are the coldest places on Earth. They are similar to a cold desert except they receive less rainfall and contain different animals and plants. Even though the conditions are harsh, the tundra biome does have plant and animal habitats.

Grassland Biome

The grassland biome is made of rolling hills of various grasses. They receive just enough rain to sustain grass but not enough to grow many trees. There are a few trees that will grow in grasslands but sporadic wildfires keep them under control. There are two types of grassland, the savannas and temperate grasslands.
