What did Europe do to solve under population?
Elenna [48]

(1) A one-time bonus: the government provides parents with a fixed sum of money, as in Russia, where each family receives a bonus of $9,600 following the birth of a second child and any subsequent children.

(2) A parental leave program, allowing parents to stop work after a child is born, as in Sweden where either the mother (or the father) can take 480 days of parental leave with guaranteed reemployment.

(3) A government subsidy for a set period of time, often pegged to the parental leave program, as in Sweden, where the mother can receive 80% of her salary during the period of leave.

(4) Government-run daycare centers that take babies to preschool-aged children, as in France and Sweden.

(5) Small monthly subsidies for dependent children, called, in German-speaking countries, “Kindergeld.”

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

C. Magma from venus mantle erupted as lava.

Explanation:

A volcano is a landform which results from the eruption of molten rocks (lava) on the surface. Volcanic rocks are a special type of igneous rock that forms when molten rock cools and solidifies on the surface.

From the little description given, option C gives the best scientific explanation to the occurrence of the volcano on the surface of Venus. For a planet like venus which is presently not active and little to no movement occurs within the plates, the volcanisim must have occurred when the planet was relatively young and it must have been millions of years ago.

It is widely believed that Venus was geologically active in times past. Mantle generated lava must have solidified on the surface in times past to have formed the volcano.

Evaluating other options:

... Impact of space objects on Venus would lead to the formation of a crater which is a depression on the surface. The rock would be mostly metamorphic.

.... If water was ever present in Venus, they would have produced sedimentary rocks instead. The erosive power of water is not high enough to cut through the crust. Also, water would not aid the formation of volcanoes.

.... Heat is not enough to from volcanoes. Other factors are also in play.

In Ptolemy's model, how do the epicycles of Mercury and Venus differ from those of Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn?
erik [133]

Explanation:

The planets Mercury and Venus , present inside the Earth's orbit appears to move with smaller  epicycle sizes than the planets outside the orbit of the Earth i.e. , Mars , Saturn and Jupiter .

Therefore , the planets Mercury and Venus sometimes appears between the Planet Earth and the Sun .

For planets , Mars , Saturn and Jupiter , the epicycle orbits are much larger and is centered around the sun .

Therefore , these planets appear on the other side of the Earth from the sun and never between the earth and the Sun .
