Answer:

The stream will flow fastest between 2 and 3.

Explanation:

On this map, we can see two basic elements, one being the contour lines, and the other being the color with which a stream is presented. The contour lines are giving us a good representation of the relief and where it is steeper and where it is less steep. Basically, where the contour lines are closer to each other, we have a steeper relief, and when the contour lines are further away, the relief is less steep.

The water moves under the influence of gravity, so downward. Where the steepness is the greatest, the gravity influences it the most, so it moves faster, while where the steepness is smaller, the gravity influences it less, so it moves slower. On this map, the contour lines are closest to each other between points 2 and 3, meaning it is the steepest part of the relief, and it is the place where the stream flows the fastest.

Analyze the image below and answer the question that follows.
Grace [21]

Answer:

It should be the Prime Meridian.

Explanation:

You do not have a picture but the equator is a line of latitude that travels east to west. The International Date line is an imaginary line through the Pacific Ocean that begins a new day (it has to do with time zones). The Arctic Circle is only in the north and it is a circle, not a line. Lastly, the prime Meridian is a line of longitude that travels from north to south and cuts the world in half between eastern and western hemispheres, like the Equator cuts the globe into the northern and southern hemispheres. The Prime Meridian goes through the Atlantic Ocean and cuts off put of Africa.

I hope this helps!
