Answer:
They are areas where there is a severe shortage of moisture, predominantly because precipitation levels are low. In some years they may even receive no rain at all.
Explanation:
In some deserts, aridity is in part also the result of high temperatures, which means that evaporation rates are great (Mainguet, 1999).
Geothermal energy is the energy drawn from the earth (geo) by way of the hot rocks that are found there. It is created as a result of the tremendous heating caused by the fission of radioactive elements in the earth's core.
Nobody has even gotten close to directly examining the interior of the Earth. So there is disagreement among geophysicists as to how heated the Earth's core is. However, the speed at which earthquake waves, sometimes known as "seismic waves," move can reveal a lot to scientists about the composition of the Earth.
It is thought that the Earth's core temperature ranges between 5,000 to 7,000 degrees Celsius. That is far colder than the sun's inside, yet roughly as heated as the sun's surface.

Answer:
Explanation:
5. The earth’s surface from the edge of the continent to the deep of the ocean
Continental shelf
The continental shelf is a part of the seafloor. This is closest portion of the seafloor to the land.
6. The rock portion of the earth’s surface
lithosphere
The lithosphere is made up of the crust and upper part of the mantle. Most of the rocks on earth are found in the lithosphere. Below the lithosphere is the asthenosphere
7. The part of the earth where plants and animals live
biosphere
The region of earth where all life forms can be found is the biosphere.
8. A fracture in the earth’s crust
Faults
A fault is a fracture within the earth's crust. It is formed as a result of brittle deformation of the earth.
9. Underground water-bearing layers of porous rock, sand or gravel
Aquifer
An aquifer is a porous and permeable formation within the earth that bears ground water.
10. To remove the salt from ocean water or groundwater
Desalination
In areas where the only source of water is ocean water, desalination is important because the saltiness of the water can be removed by this process.
