Answer:

If you were to jump off a cliff, you would break both your legs and your spine.

Explanation:

Since you would be landing on your feet when crashing onto the ground/rocks/etc., you would potentially (actually, 99.99% chance) become paralyzed and not be able to move your legs and spine. The five sciatic nerves join at the base of the spine and extend down the back of each leg to the toes. The sciatic nerves connect the spinal cord to many of the leg and foot muscles.

Therefore, since you would be landing on your feet, you damage not only the feet and legs, but also your entire spine, which is also connected to your brain (the spinal nerves that is).

What affect does the Sahel's climate and physical characteristics have on population distribution?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The Sahel has been labeled as one of those regions with the danger of overpopulation. It has been described with adjectives such as semi-arid, hot, dry, windy or sunny.

Sources have it that the G5 Sahel countries which include Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Chad will increase from about 84 million inhabitants in 2019 to 197 million in 2050. This projection includes people under 15 years of age which comprise about 50% of the entire population.

The climate itself doesn't seem to deter population growth. What seems to be occurring is sedentarization. This is due to rapid desertification and drought which have persisted for some time.

Explanation:

Sedentarization refers to the choice of a group of people who usually are very nomadic or migratory to settle permanently in a place.

This is usually due to a more favorable weather and topography which supports agriculture.

Cheers!

How can meristematic tissue help in the growth in plants?
Pepsi [2]

The tissues that are capable to aid the growth of plants is referred to as meristematic tissues. They are located at the tips of stems, roots, and branches. These undergo constant division to make new cells which causes plants to grow in height and width.

<h3>What are meristematic tissues?</h3>

Plants have a variety of tissue named the meristem. It is made up of immature cells that can divide.

Cells in the meristem can differentiate into all of the various tissues and organs found in plants.

These cells divide indefinitely until they differentiate and lose the ability to divide.

Thus, in this way meristematic tissues helps in plant growth.
