They differ in some social and ritual customs, and in some aspects of their cuisine.
These 'surface' differences stem from their respective historical geographic origins. The history of the 'Sephardim' springs from western Europe and North Africa, including Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, and Arabia. The history of the 'Ashkenazim' is rooted in Eastern Europe, including Germany, Poland, the Baltics, Russia, and the 'Stans' ... Tajik, Kazakh, Uzbek, etc.
One fascinating feature of this split, isolated evolution of Judaism ... and there are many ... is the fact that even though the two streams evolved, with almost zero contact, for as much as 1,000 years, a Sephardic Torah scroll and an Ashkenazic Torah scroll are totally identical, down to the last character in every one of their 10,290 lines of text written in 245 columns.
Answer:
Intertropical Convergence Zone
Explanation:
It's a high-pressure zone with sinking air is not true of the Intertropical Convergence Zone. This is because the Intertropical Convergence Zone is low pressure zone with sinking air therefore it is wrong statement. hope this helps you :)
Answer:
B) Regions such as Labrador are actually colder than England because colder Arctic water flows down to eastern North America and warm water from the equator flows to England
Explanation:
Even though Labrador and England are roughly on the same latitude, the climates in these two places are very different. The reason for this is the influence of the ocean currents on the climate. Labrador is influenced by dry and cold ocean currents, bringing in very cold weather conditions and harsh cold winds, thus not providing conditions for the growth of palm trees. On the other side of the Atlantic, England is influenced by warm and wet ocean current, the Gulf Stream. This brings in relatively small fluctuations in the temperature, with both the summer and the winter being mild and without extreme temperatures. Also, it brings in a lot of precipitation, so the palm trees manage to survive with only slight adaptations.
Answer:
Oceans = > 97 percent of Earth's water.
Glaciers = > 70% of Earth's freshwater
River = > Powered by gravity
Groundwater = > 100 times more water than all rivers and lakes
97% of the water on Earth is not drinkable as it is salt-water in oceans.
Of the 3% that is freshwater, Glaciers make up about 70% which means that we don't have access to a significant amount of freshwater either.
Of the available freshwater to us, groundwater comprises 98% which enables it to be 100 times more than all rivers and lakes.
Rivers are powered by gravity in that they flow from areas of higher elevation to areas of lower elevation as gravity pulls it downwards.
