Answer : The correct option is, (B) Germanium

Explanation :

As we know that the material are divided into three categories which are conductors, insulators and semiconductors.

Conductors : It is a type of substance which conduct electricity that means it allow the electrons to flow through them.

Example of conductors are, iron, aluminium, gold, etc.

Insulators : It is a type of substance which does not conduct electricity that means it does not allow the electrons to flow through them.

Examples of insulators are, glass, rubber, ceramics, etc.

Semiconductors : It is a type of substance which conduct electricity under certain conditions that means it allow the electrons to flow through them. The conductivity level of semiconductors lie between the conductors and the insulators.

The good examples of semiconductors are silicon, germanium, gallium, and  selenium.

In the given options, aluminium, gold are the metals which conduct electricity and concrete is an insulator which do not conduct electricity while the germanium is the good semiconductor.

Hence, the correct option is, (B) Germanium

What single feature is primarily responsible for the variation of climate in different parts of the world?
astraxan [27]

angle of incoming sunlight

Explanation:

The single feature that primarily determines the variation in climate in different parts of the world is the angle of incoming sunlight.

  • Climate is simply an extended study of weather over a long period of time.
  • The elements of weather like temperature, pressure, rainfall all conditions climate.
  • The angle of incoming sunlight is by far the most important factor that determines climatic patterns on the earth.
  • Around the equator, the sun is overhead and these regions are usually hot driving a wide range of weather phenomenon.
  • The polar and temperate regions receive diffused sunlight because the sun is at an angle there.
