Answer:
Explanation:
The earth rotates on its own axis. When the rotational axis of the earth changes, it leads to precession. Earth's precession is a common phenomenon that has been observed by astronomers for a long time. The effect of changing axis of rotation would be the amount of solar radiation that would be received at any point on the earth.
Answer:
Not Pacific Coast or Midwest
Explanation:
The majority of the non- Anglo migrants throughout the 19th and 20th century were avoiding the West and Pacific Coasts because they were looking for the jobs, not for land.

A volcano erupting can destroy the forest around it. That is an example of the geosphere acting on the biosphere.
The correct answer is - C. the San Andreas fault.
San Francisco, as most of the western of California, is lying in close proximity to the San Andreas fault. This fault is a continental transform fault that is formed as a result of the transform boundary between the Pacific plate and the North American plate, with a small plate lying in between them. Because of the horizontal movement of the plates and the pressure they cause to one another, there's constant adjustments inside the crust, and that contributes to lot of earthquakes in the region. One of those earthquakes was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, a very strong and devastating earthquake, often considered as the worst earthquake in the history of the United States.
