Two countries that do not border Brazil are Ecuador and Chile.
Natural Hazards can be described as dangerous occurrences that are a threat to human survival. These can include unforeseen sudden events such as earthquakes, volcanoes, Tsunamis and tornadoes. This can also include some slow-moving disasters e.g. droughts, climate change and even diseases.
All these events are difficult for humans to adapt to. Human bodies have not gone through an evolutionary process where we can coupe with such disasters.
In modern countries, some precautions have been developed e.g. dams to store water in times of drought or earth-quake proof buildings seen in Japan.
Generally, humans in poorer countries are more susceptible to natural hazards due to poor infrastructure.

Explanation:
Alfred Wegener in 1915 published 'The Origin of Continents and Oceans'. But geologists denounced his theory. Wegener's Continental drift is the theory that the different continents of the planet earth have moved over time causing them to shift positions. he thought all continents were once joined together before breaking up to different positions.
Part of the objections he faced was because he did not have much evidences to back up his theory.
Answer: Florida typically experiences warm temperatures and temperature changes within a narrow range.

<u>Question</u>
Benito is doing research on the effects of Florida's elevation on its climate. His notes include the following:
1. The average elevation of Florida is 30 m above sea level.
2. The highest point in Florida is Britton Hill, which is 105 m above sea level.
3. The change in temperature from 0 m to 1,000 m is 7 °C.
Explanation: The low elevation of the area suggests a warm temperature, The higher you go, the cooler it gets. Also Benito observed that the change in temperature from 0 m to 1,000 m is 7 °C. This shows that there a narrow range in the temperature across Florida.
In addition, Florida is a coastal area. Coastal areas experience mild climates with warm summers, cool but not harsh winters and lots of rainfall. The reason for the warm weather in coastal area is the difference in the time it takes the land and the sea to absorb heat. Air from the sea then cools the land during the day and at night, cool air flows to the sea.
