Hutments and other slum settlements in South Asia are an example of Overcrowding, Informal settlements, High-density housing, and Housing often built in marginal urban areas.
Overcrowding or crowding is the condition where more people are located within a given space than is considered tolerable from a safety and health perspective. Safety and health perspectives depend on current environments and on local cultural norms. Overcrowding may arise temporarily or regularly, in the home, in public spaces or on public transport. Overcrowding in the home can cause particular concern, since the home is an individual's place of shelter.
Effects on quality of life due to crowding may include increased physical contact, lack of sleep, lack of privacy and poor hygiene practices.[1] While population density offers an objective measure of the number of people living per unit area, overcrowding refers to people's psychological response to density.

Linguists have organized languages into language families, that is languages that are related to each other: this means that they used to be one language, but the speakers of those languages were separated and their languages shifted apart and eventually became separate

The Battle of the Atlantic took place throughout the northern region of the Atlantic Ocean. Once the United States entered the war the battle spread all the way to the coast the United States and the Caribbean Sea. The battle lasted over 5 years and 8 months from September 3, 1939 to May 8, 1945. The control of the Atlantic had a major impact on the outcome of the war. Keeping Britain supplied helped to keep the Germans from taking over all of Western Europe. The losses in the battle were staggering. Over 30,000 sailors were killed on each side. The Allies lost around 3,500 supply ships and 175 warships. The Germans lost 783 submarines.
Fun Facts:
Winston Churchill first called it the "Battle of the Atlantic" in 1941.
It was estimated that at least 20 supply ships needed to arrive each day in Britain in order for them to continue to fight the war.
The Allies lost 1,664 supply ships in 1942.
The Germans sometimes used a "wolf pack" tactic where a number of submarines would surround and attack a supply convoy at once.
Allied planes used a large spotlight called the Leigh Light to spot submarines that had surfaced at night.

<u>Answer:
</u>
The process of thick sediment layers to "accumulate" along the "boundaries of continental and oceanic plates" is called Subduction.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- During a marine transgression, sea level raises high compared to land level resulting in floods. These are triggered during climate changes, ice-age, isostatic movements.
- Subduction occurs at the tectonic plates where one plate is moves under another forcing to sink into Earth’s mantle due to the gravitational force.
- The plates are continental and oceanic in the zone of lithosphere. The rate of subduction is usually seven to 8 centimetres per year.
- Marine regressions are opposite to transgressions where sea levels fall compared to land levels.
- Glaciation is the interval of time within an ice-age. The current glacier period is of Holocene.
