Answer:
The height of the mountain ranges in Ladakh region prevent the cold desert from the crossing of the clouds, that's why there is low rainfall in Ladakh.
Explanation:
The Indian cold desert Ladakh is situated at high elevation. The desert is surrounded by the heights of mountain ranges. The area has very less humidity and the desert is marked by extreme aridity. The great Karakoram ranges, Himalayan mountains and Zanskar ranges are preventing the cloud crossing from the area. This is the major cause of less rainfall in Ladakh region. The desert recieves only 2 inches annually which is very low and cause scarcity of water in the area and among locals. The desert is situated at a great height covered with supreme mountains, this cause extreme cold in the region and low rainfall.
Answer:
D. Precipitation
Explanation:
Human environment interactions are interactions between humans and the environment.
Let’s examine each answer choice.
A. Dams are barriers that are built to stop water. Humans build them, so it is a human environment interaction.
B. Farms are plots of land humans use to raise crops and animals. Therefore, they are human environment interactions.
C. Irrigation is a way to water crops. Humans build them. They are human environment interactions.
D. Precipitation is rain, snow, hail and more. Humans can’t control it, so it is not a human environment interaction.
Therefore, the best answer is D. Precipitation.
<span>Australia is so large that its climate varies. The greater part of the continent is desert or semi-arid. Only the south-east and south-west corners have a temperate climate and moderately fertile soil. The northern part has a tropical climate, varied between tropical rainforests, grasslands, and part desert.</span>
The length of the longest side of this triangle is given as 4 units.
<h3>How to solve for the longest side of the triangle.</h3>
The scale factor that we have in this question is 1/10
The longest side of the triangle can be gotten from the
scale factor x side
= 1/10 x 40
= 4 units
Hence the longest side of the triangle is 4 units.

Oceanic and continental plates are colliding.
Explanation:
On the image, we can see an oceanic plate on the left, and a continental plate on the right, moving toward each other and colliding. Because the two plates have different densities, thickness, and elevation, one of the subducts below the other, that being the oceanic plate. As the oceanic plate subducts below the continental plate, it gradually moves down in the mantle layer, getting melted, recycled, and maybe the same material be pushed toward the surface again.
On the plate boundary, convergent in this case, there is intense geological activity. Magma manages to rise through the cracks and gaps, and it forms volcanoes, creating a continental volcanic arc. Also, there are lot of earthquakes at such boundaries, as there is constant adjustment of the crust.
Such boundaries can be found between the:
- Pacific and North American plates
- Pacific and Eurasian plates
- Pacific and Australian plates
- Pacific and Philippine plates
- Nazca and South American plates
- Cocos and North American plate
