Answer: (D) In the short term, the wild cheetah population will be incapable of surviving a natural disaster in the African grasslands.
Explanation:
It is said that the previous estimates of the population of cheetahs needed for them to survive a natural disaster were understated and yet on top of that, the current population barely meets those understated numbers. Their numbers are therefore not enough to survive a natural disaster as it is.
To top that all of, the population cannot increase in the short term because African grasslands cannot support a larger population. This means that should a natural disaster strike Cheetahs in the short term, their numbers would be unable to take it and they would not survive.
Let's look at the option:
A. Only wealthy nations need to repay their debts, so it slows their
progress.
-this is not true, as not only wealthy nations need to pay back debt, but all nations
B. This is no longer a problem because debt repayment was
completely erased after World War II.
-this is not true: this is still a problem, and quite a big one.
C. Both measures rob a developing
nation of money it could use to invest in social welfare improvements.
Well, debt repayment does rob developing nation of money that it could use for other purposes: so it's true! (structural adjustment doesn't rob but it maintains the state in which the nation needs to pay back the debt)- this is the correct answer!
D. They always penalize highly developed nations rather than
underdeveloped ones.
- This is not true, as both countries are penalized, and the underdeveloped ones even more so.
Maybe because they live in nuclear times. And they already have 2 cars.
If it creates mountains then it is convergent but if it’s a trench then it’s divergent
The correct answer is - The movement of the plates sometimes leads to earthquakes and tsunamis.
The movement of the plates leads to lot of changes across the globe, and they might be positive or negative, though it depends from which point of view the things are seen.
On the boundaries of the plates, there's constant adjustment deep inside the crust because of their movement. Those adjustments cause parts inside the crust to break, crumble, producing a lot of force, transmitted as quick, strong vibrations, which we know as earthquakes.
The earthquakes can appear on land and in the sea/ocean. Both of them can be devastating and cause a lot of damage, be it human lives, destruction of plants, killing off animals, material damage. The ones in the seas'oceans, also lead to the formation of tsunami, which essentially is a huge, powerful, quick moving waves that wipe out everything on their way.
