<u>Answer:</u>

The "cretaceous-tertiary" mass extinction was apparently caused by a "meteorite" that struck the Yucatan Peninsula.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Yucatan Peninsula lies between the present-day 'Gulf of Mexico' and the 'Carribean Sea'.
  • The meteorite that struck this peninsula about '66' million years ago was '10 to 15 kilometers' wide in size.
  • A huge crater was formed after the meteorite hit the Earth at the Yucatan Peninsula. This crater in today's date is known as the "Chicxulub impact crater".

How might isolation affect the way a country decelops economically?
Vadim26 [7]
If a country is isolated, it will have to produce everything that it needs: especially food clothes and medicine. It won't be able to specialize, but it will have to focus on satisfying the needs of the people.

If it is not isolated, it can specialize in the things that it can produce the best and fastest, and hope to exchange it for the things that it can't produce.

sammy [17]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Henan, a region in Central China's Yellow River Valley, is generally perceived as where Chinese human progress started. There are 4 antiquated capitals inside its fringes. Luoyang, capital amid various traditions, is home to Baima Si (White Horse Temple).  

In November 2013, after the Third Plenum of the eighteenth Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, China reported the choice to loosen up the one-kid arrangement. Under the new strategy, families could have two kids in the event that one parent, as opposed to the two guardians, was a single kid.
