The Milky Way's name stems from the Greeks, who refers to the galaxy as galaxias kyklos or milky circle. The Romans, who called it via lacteal, or "The road of milk" altered the term from its original Greek origins.

The correct answer is A. Andes Mountains.

Explanation

The image shows part of South America and its political division, also, there are letters A, C, D, E, and F. that represent characteristics of that area. Another characteristic of this map is that it has a dark heterogeneous shape that is located transversely in the Pacific zone represented by the Andes. According to the previous description of the image, it is possible to affirm that the letter F represents the mountain range of the Andes because it has two arrows that indicate the dark shape that represents said geological formation. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Andes Mountains.

Which lines meet at the polls latitude or longitude

Shtirlitz [24]

I'm going to assume you meant poles for this. The lines that meet at the North and South Poles are called Longitude. How I like to remember that is Lat is relaxing and Long is tall. :)
