Answer:
global distribution of megacities refers to the dispersion of a population of 10 million people or more in all parts of the world.
Explanation:
Global distribution of megacities is usually determined by the number of people within a population which should not go below 10 million. these people making up the populations can be located in different locations, either in the cities or in the countryside. In January 2015, for example, China’s Pearl River Delta conurbation overtook Tokyo as the world’s largest city (Van Mead, 2016). However, this depends on how the ‘city’ is measured – the Pearl River Delta includes the cities of Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan and Dongguan (but not Hong Kong, which is considered a separate territory under its ‘Special Administrative Zone’ status within China). If these cities were measured separately, Tokyo would likely remain the world’s largest city.
C is the answer. Hope this helps.
Answer:
All dinosaur fossils found by archeologists have been found a few centimeters below the iridium layer. So, the possibility of finding dinosaur fossils above the iridium layer is very slim.
Explanation:
Over 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the earth but were canceled out as a result of an extraterrestrial impact on the earth's crust. Research proved that an asteroid brought the end of dinosaurs as the element iridium was found in the earth (since iridium is abundant in asteroids and not the earth's crust).
Records of fossils found have been between 13 to 60 centimeters below the iridium or the K-T boundary as it is called.
