Wild cheetahs live in the African grasslands. Previous estimates of the size that the wild cheetah population must be, in order

for these animals to survive a natural disaster in the African grasslands region were too small, and the current population barely meets the previous estimates. At present, however, there are not enough African grasslands to support a wild cheetah population larger than the current population. The statements above, if true, most strongly support which of the following conclusions?
(A) Previous estimates of the size of the existing wild cheetah population were inaccurate.
(B) The cheetah’s natural habitat is decreasing in size at a faster rate than is the size of the wild cheetah population.
(C) The principal threat to the endangered wild cheetah population is neither pollution nor hunting, but a natural disaster.
(D) In the short term, the wild cheetah population will be incapable of surviving a natural disaster in the African grasslands.
(E) In regions where land is suitable for cheetah habitation, more natural disasters are expected to occur during the next decade than occurred during the past decade.

Answer: (D) In the short term, the wild cheetah population will be incapable of surviving a natural disaster in the African grasslands.

Explanation:

It is said that the previous estimates of the population of cheetahs needed for them to survive a natural disaster were understated and yet on top of that, the current population barely meets those understated numbers. Their numbers are therefore not enough to survive a natural disaster as it is.

To top that all of, the population cannot increase in the short term because African grasslands cannot support a larger population. This means that should a natural disaster strike Cheetahs in the short term, their numbers would be unable to take it and they would not survive.

Using complete sentences, compare and contrast three aspects of growth in Eastern cities and Western cities in the United States
lianna [129]
There were a lot of cities back in the east, and populations were rising. People began moving west and building farms, raising cattle, and other animals. Originally, people arrived in the east by ship (from England etc.), but when people traveled to the west they went by wagon trains. In the south people grew things like cotton, sweet potatoes, tobacco, and sugar, while in the west they grew things like apples trees, wheat, and raised herds.
In the west they build small, compact log cabins, while in the east there were factories, larger brick buildings, and marinas for traded good from other countries.
That is how growth differed in the east cities and the west.
summary;
1. People who traveled to the west started from the east. But those people from the east originally came from England, who then settled in the eastern United States. 2. The mode of transportation to their new lives was different, (ship vs. wagon train.) 3. Log cabins in the west vs. larger bricked buildings in the north east.

In middlegate, nevada, what wacky roadside attraction can you find?
gtnhenbr [62]

The correct answer is - Shoe Tree.

In Middlegate, Nevada, alongside the so called ''loneliest road in America'', there's a cottonwood tree that has shoes all over its branches. As multiple other places in America where tree are ''ornamented'' with different types of objects, this tree has its own story behind it as well.

A man and a women had an argument. The women said that she would leave, but the man threw her shoes on the tree and told her that she will have to do it barefoot. He than went to a nearby bar, and the bartender convinced him to go back and reconcile, and he did returned, and reconciled with his wife. Few years after, when they had a child, they came back and threw the child's shoes on the tree where they reconciled.
