Answer:
Tectonic plates
Explanation:
In general, earthquakes are due to the immense vibrations from the shifting of tectonic plates. In the specific case of the San Andreas Fault, there is one issue. It is directly on top of a boundary between two tectonic plates. So, when either one of the plates shifts, extreme earthquakes occur due to the location being on top of the source.
Answer:
it is a good way
Explanation:
It is a good way to gather demographic information because it's very accurate. Censucount.org says that "The Census Bureau reported a net national overcount of 0.01% in 2010" which means they are only off by a little, but still effective. THe demographic information is then used to decide where to distribute the funds and taxes for schools, public areas, supermarkets, etc.
Answer:
Saint-Domingue (Haiti) was prosperous because of revenue earned from sugar.
Explanation:
When the Europeans came to Haiti, the native people lived in a simple way and were relatively isolated from their surroundings, let alone the world. The Europeans though thought that this place has big potential, especially in farming. What the Europeans had on mind was to create large plantations with sugar cane, thus produce sugar and make a profit out of it.
While the Europeans were not many in number, and the native population was decimated, a lot of African slaves were brought as a labor force for the plantations. The wet tropical climate enabled high-scale production of sugar cane, and with sugar becoming increasingly popular and being paid well for, the Europeans earned a lot from the trade. Haiti actually became a very prosperous island, and that was strictly down to the production of sugar cane and sugar from it.
Similarities:
- Marine and freshwater ecosystems are water, covering almost 75 percent of the earth's surface.
-The most pervasive problem affecting both freshwater and marine ecosystems is pollution.
-The process of regulating the osmotic pressure on fluids inside an organism is essential to all freshwater and marine species.
Differences:
- Marine ecosystems are more diverse than freshwater ones.
- In marine or seawater, the salinity level, or the concentration of salt is greater, but freshwater is not totally void of it.
- Only 1% of the whole water body on the earth is freshwater, the other 99% is marine water.
Note- I couldn't come up with ones for estuaries, sorry.
Answer:
Explanation:
Freshwater resources are not evenly distributed around the planet because there are some places where precipitation doesn't take place like deserts or tundra's. In rainforests there is an abundant reservoir of water.
Hope this helps.
