Answer:

Hard engineering strategies - advantages and disadvantages

Erosion is a natural process which shapes cliffs. Over time, erosion can cause cliff collapse - therefore the coastline needs to be managed. Hard engineering involves building artificial structures which try to control natural processes. Each engineering strategy has its advantages and disadvantages.

Sea walls

A sea wall

Concrete walls that are placed at the foot of a cliff to prevent erosion. They are curved to reflect the energy back into the sea.

Advantages

Effective at protecting the base of the cliff.

Sea walls usually have promenades so people can walk along them.

Disadvantages

Waves are still powerful and can break down and erode the sea wall.

32. Volcanoes consist of A. leaves, stems B. lava flows, pyroclasts C. joints, branches D. faults, holes E. folds, trees
Bingel [31]

The correct answer is B. Lava flows, pyroclasts.

Explanation

A volcano is a mountain or hill that has an opening through which gaseous, liquid or solid materials can escape from the interior of the Earth. At the top of this cone, there is a concave formation called crater or chimney. When activity occurs in a volcano it is because it is erupting. Also, when it is erupting, the molten rock that comes from the Earth's mantle, known as magma, comes out. Once the magma comes to the surface, it loses the gases it contains because it evaporates, and when it drains the slopes of the cone it is known as lava, which flows from the top of the volcano. Finally, the waste expelled by a volcano through its crater during an eruption is known as pyroclasts. So, the correct answer is B. Lava flows, pyroclasts.

The big difference between Eastern Europe and Western Europe is that Eastern Europe consists of countries that once belonged to the Soviet block, unlike the Western half. Economically, the Western Europe nations are much more advanced than the Eastern Europe nations. Western Europe outputs a lot more cash due to a larger free trade and more open economy as a whole.
