Answer: D
Explanation:
By 2100 Global warming would have more than double as the release of chlorofluorocarbons into the atmosphere does not seem to abase. The industrial zone of Pittsburgh, US contributes a lot to the increase in the atmospheric temperatures of the surrounding areas. The continually high demand for wood charcoal by pharmaceutical companies, households, and food vendors in developing countries would mean more deforestation which consequently expose the earth's crust to high insolatoon from the solar system.
However, the replacement of natural landscape by human landscape is on the rise. In the UAE, Dubai alone has u number of construction projects, from skyscrappers to artificial islands. More trees would be removed to make these construction projects possible. The consequent effect of all these cannot be anything other than more warming of the globe.
Answer:
<h2>D. Joan of Arc</h2>
Explanation:
Joan of Arc was a French peasant who claimed she'd had visions of saints and an angel that told her to help restore France from domination by the English.
Joan of Arc came to the scene at a critical time in 1429. The northern half of France was essentially under the control of the English. There was contention over who was truly the French king after Charles VI had died in 1422. His son, the prince Charles, was a claimant to the throne. But the English contended their boy king, Henry VI, should rule over France.
In January 1429, Joan (age 17) came to the court of the prince, Charles, and convinced him of her mission from God. Within a few months, she had rallied the people of France and helped to break the control of the English over large sections of French territory. She ultimately was captured by a group of French nobles who were allied with the English, was handed over to the English, and was burned at the stake (in 1431). But she had done much to unite the French people around a sense of common patriotism and national aspirations.
The Zagros are a mountain range in Iran. Basically on the windward side of the range it'll be really wet and on the lee ward side it'll be dry probably even a desert. The warm moist air is forced up the mountain where the cooler temperatures at the top cause condensation so it rains. Dry on the other side. The main range in Turkey are called the Taurus mountains.
The correct answer is - Toronto and Moscow.
The two major population centers in the taiga biome are the biggest city in Canada, Toronto, and the capital of Russia, Moscow.
Even though the taiga is often considered as inhospitable place for living, it is obviously not the case in Canada and Russia, where most of the population is actually located in this biome.
Moscow is the biggest city in Russia with its around 12 million inhabitants. It is the economic, cultural, and political center of the country.
Toronto, though not a capital, it is still the most populated city in Canada with its little over than 2.7 million inhabitants, and it is the most powerful city in every department in the second biggest country in the world.
Answer:
A) the volcanic activity at subduction zones makes the fault plane stickier and therefore they release more energy when they reach their elastic limit
Explanation:
- As the plate boundaries are very shallow and are able to produce very large earthquakes and thus release more energy when the slabs descent to the mantel and viscosity changes and causes the plates to move bend and deform and thickness of the slabs is also an important factor that determines the high magnitude earthquakes.
