The answer is Portugal. The Eastern Europen countries that lie in the Balkan peninsula are Balkan states. Portugal is located in the West of Europe. Balkan countries are located in the southeastern of Europe; composed of 12 countries. These states are close to the Black Sea. The Northern boundary of the peninsula varies (hence also the number of states considered Balkan) especially influenced by historical and political connotations. This is why Turkey is also considered Balkan country.

Answer:
Asteroids can cause great damage if they collide with Earth.
Explanation:
The above statement is actually the passage that is too broad in the passage. A "too broad" statement is one that lacks details and also too general. Such statements tend to cover generalize and cover many possible issues/topics. In such statement, different topics can fit within it.
From the above selected statement, one can see that the statement is too general and details. It wasn't specific on what damage it causes and the type of asteroid that causes what it causes.
Answer: Its presence is a good determinant of past hot climates. Its absence can also indicate cold climates.
Explanation:
18O and 16O are oxygen Isotopes, and are used in determining past climates. Heavier than the 16O with 10 neutrons and 8 protons, the 18O does not evaporate as easily and because of this, higher amounts are found in the tropics.
Together, they serve as good determinants of past climate by checking for their ratio in fossils.
Also the 18O isotopes are not present in polar regions as they precipitate before getting to higher altitudes. Cold areas, on the other hand, are high in 16O as they get trapped in glaciers. When climate changes in a location, the quantity of both of these oxygen isotopes also changes.
