Furkat [3]3 years ago

Marine waters cover 70.8% of the earth’s surface. And, if we substract the 5.5% area of the continental shelf, 65.3% of the earth’s surface is occupied by continental slope and rise, and deep-sea parts (data after Dietrich and Kalle 1957). The deep sea can be subdivided into several topographical units. There are deep-sea grabens<span> (15 in number), which cut deeper than 6,000 m. Deep-sea grabens are restricted to tectonic active regions near the foot of continental slopes.</span>

Simora [160]

Answer:

A. Ethiopian Highlands

Explanation:

With the triangle marking on this picture we have represented the Ethiopian Highlands. These highlands have formed relatively recently, geologically speaking, with the reason being the intense geological activity in this area that has gradually lifted up the area. These highlands are located on a newly formed divergent boundary, where part of the African continent is slowly moving away from the rest of it, in eastern direction. Because of this, it is an area where there's rift valleys, lot of earthquakes, as well as volcanic activity.

Review the table below. Note the exchange rates for dates in January of 2008 and 2013. You will use the information in the table
Sindrei [870]
          2008                                          2013
U.S. $1 = 1.00 CAD               U.S. $1 = 0.99 CAD
U.S. $1 = 39.41 INR              U.S. $1 = 54.80 INR
U.S. $1 = 0.69 EUR               U.S. $1 = 0.76 EUR
<span>U.S. $1 = 6.78 ZAR                U.S. $1 = 8.46 ZAR

When you travel, it is better to visit a currency exchange and have your foreign currency exchange into the local or national currency of the country you are visiting. Cash transactions will be easily done once local currency is used. You don't need to worry about the exchange rate every time you purchase a commodity.

2013: US$ 1 = 54.80 INR

$25 x 54.80 INR/$1 = 1,370 INR

2013: US$ 1 = 0.99 CAD

$25 x 0.99CAD/$1 = 24.75 CAD

It would be cheaper to buy products in South Africa than in European Union. This is because the US dollar has a higher value in South Africa than in the European Union.

It would be cheaper to buy the product in 2008 because the value of US dollars in India is lower compared to its value in 2013.
