Geography

Answer:

Most beaches get their sand from rocks on land. Over time, rain, ice, wind, heat, cold, and even plants and animals break rock into smaller pieces. This weathering may begin with large boulders that break into smaller rocks. Water running through cracks erodes the rock.

There are several different ways. Usually, rocks and other minerals are broken up and worn down into tiny particles. Sometimes, fish poop also contributes to the formation of sand. Sediment can also be carried via glaciers, wind, etc. picking up sediment and dropping it onto beaches before melting and forming bodies of water. Water/waves also could have rubbed particles off of rocky formations and weathered them into tiny little particles.

Answer:

While this is mostly opinion, I would prefer option 2. With its lighter cyan colors and beautiful mountain scenery along with a serene beach tucked into a small cove, it is definitely the one I would use above any of the others.

Qual a densidade demográfica média da europa? Ela e alta ou baixa?
valentina_108 [34]

The population density of Europe, as a whole, is 143 people per square mile. This makes Europe the second most densely populated continent in the world, with the first place being occupied bu Asia, so we can say that Europe is a densely populated continent as a whole.

It has to be taken in notice that Europe is a continent that has an aging population, the fertility rate is very low, and the life expectancy is high. Interestingly enough, even though there's only three countries in the whole continent that have a positive fertility rate, the population of the continent is still growing, slowly, by 0.3% annually, but it is growing. The growth is mainly because of the migrants, mainly from the Middle East and Africa, and apart from increasing the number of the population with their entry, they also tend to have a high fertility rate.
