Answer:
Globally, the evidence has been mounting in linking gender equality and enhanced environmental outcomes. ... In fact, evidence reveals that there is a correlation between environment and gender; when gender inequality is high, forest depletion, air pollution and other measures of environmental degradation are also high.

Answer:
1. Continental-continental convergence are both <em>continental crust</em> plates.
2. Buoyancy basically means these plates are light float on top of the Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
1. To go a little more into detail, this type of convergence ocurrs when two plates made of continental crust (not oceanic) collide. In the case of ocean-continent convergence, the denser oceanic crust sinks underneath the lighter continental crust.
In this scenario, we have two plates, neither of which want to sink, so instead of going down they just crumple and fold and keep colliding. This collision creates very high mountain ranges such as the Himalaya and usually doesn't contain any volcanic activity because no magma is capable of penetrating through so much crustal material.
2. As for why continental crust is buoyant and doesn't sink has much to do with its composition. Continental crust is made mostly of silicate material. This is very different from oceanic crust which is made of basaltic rocks and is therefore heavier. The term buoyancy refers to the 'floating action' of the continental crust on top of the uppermost mantle.
Answer:
definitely False
Explanation:
A megalopolis contains more than one metropolis
Taiga is the largest Continental Biome. It experiences long, cold winter; short, mild summers; and low precipitation. It is characterized by Coniferous forests. It covers most of the Southern Hemisphere.
Answer:
E.
Explanation:
This is because it is always hot and dry in the deserts, so plants and animals are <u>adapted</u> to that. Hope this helps!
