Geography

bagirrra123 [75]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Positives -

- There becomes a higher consumption of certain foods and drinks (a boom-time for ice-cream and cold drinks)

- Domestic tourism is having a boon with "stay-cations"

- Measured industrial output rises, hence GDP rises, because of increased use of electricity

Negatives -

- Heatwaves can cause a surge of dry weather. This could lead to Droughts and could have a negative impact on locals. Crops for farmers could dry out, and there could become a lack of vegetation (for animals too).

- Higher death rate for people with certain conditions (e.g. more heart attacks, especially among-st elderly people)

- Reduced numbers for certain forms of entertainment (ie cinema etc)

. Which of the following best explains how a tephra deposit forms?
Alla [95]

Answer:

C. Airborne ash and rocks from a volcanic eruption remain suspended in the air for a long time before eventually settling to the ground in a new location far from the volcano.

Explanation:

Tephra deposits take many forms and shape, and their composition doesn't really matter either. The only thing that defines a tephra really is that it was ejected from the mouth of a volcano and fell on the ground where it remained intact (not merged with something else).

So, forms of tephra could be big boulders landing on the volcano's side or ashes that travel around the globe to land on the other side of the planet.
