Answer:

Explanation:

The original inhabitants of Jamaica are believed to be the Arawaks, also called Tainos. They came from South America 2,500 years ago and named the island Xaymaca, which meant ““land of wood and water”. The Arawaks were a mild and simple people by nature.

The name Jamaica is derived from Xaymaca, the Taíno-Arawak name for the island, which translates, as 'isle of springs'. Jamaica was charted by Christopher Columbus during his second voyage and the first Europeans to arrive on the island were the Spanish in 1509.

The first Africans to arrive in Jamaica came in 1513 from the Iberian Peninsula. When the British Empire captured Jamaica in 1655, many of them fought with the Spanish, who gave them their freedom, and then fled to the mountains, resisting the British for many years to maintain their freedom, becoming known as Maroons

All mass movement occurs on slopes. Without gravity, the material would remain in place and not move. True or false.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The mass movements are representing movements of large masses of soil, also including rocks, water, biomass in them. These movements though need certain natural conditions so that they can happen. For a mass movement to occur, there has to be a slope, and under the influence of the gravitation, once the conditions are right, there will be movement downward until it reaches a flatter spot. If the terrain is flat, then a mass movement can not occur, as the gravitation is pulling the material down, so it will not be able to move. Also, if the gravitation is lacking, the material will not move anywhere, as without gravitation, there will be no atmosphere, and without atmosphere, there will be no agents to cause the mass movement.
