What makes a spot like Death Valley or Moab or Organ Pipe Monument so all-fired dry? Or for that matter a huge region like the S

ahara? Or the Taklimakan Desert of western China? Is it purely fortuitous that one geographical area-say the Amazon Basin-should receive buckets of moisture while another area not far away-the Atacama-Peruvian Desert-gets so precious little? The answer to that is no. Not at all fortuitous. Three different geophysical factors combine, generally at least two in each case, to produce the world?s various zones of drastic and permanent drought: (1) high pressure systems of air in the horse latitudes, (2) shadowing mountains, and (3) cool ocean currents.
Which of the following best states the question posed by the paragraph?

A) What makes Death Valley so especially dry?

B) Which geophysical factor is most important in the creation of a desert?

C) How long does it take to produce a desert?

D) What factors lead to the creation of a desert?

andrey2020 [161]

Having a good attitude is truly helpful when going through difficult moments. I want to provide an example about someone who has been important in my life:


My grandpa suffered a stroke at his 70 and his face ended up partially paralyzed. He was positive and confident that he would recover from this and that he would be able to have full control over his face muscles. He started some kind of physical therapy and with his determination and proper attitude, he was finally able to make gestures with his face in two months (without a single trace of facial paralysis).
