The correct answer is - C. The river carried enormous amounts of silt.
The Yellow River, got this nickname because it is yellowish from the enormous amounts of silt it carries. When there were heavy rains, or the snow was melting, the river got more water, but also more silt, so the silt was partially blocking the free movement of all of the water, so it was flooding the surrounding are. In one way, the floods were terrible because they were destroying pretty much everything on their way, but on the other side, were living huge amounts of deposits that were fertilizing the soil for the agriculture.
Just name 3 things that aren’t living, like rocks, etc in your local area!! I hope that makes you understand! ^-^
Answer:
Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish from a body of water at a rate that the species cannot replenish, resulting in those species becoming underpopulated in that area.
Answer:
The parts of North America on the same latitude as the northern and southernmost parts of Scandinavia are Canada and Alaska
Explanation:
The artic circle is one of the famous latitudes that is located at the topmost part of the globe. It runs through 66°33′48.2″ above the equatorial line. The artic circle passes through the following countries as it circles the globe latitudinally.
1. Alaska
2. Canada
3.Russia
4. Norway
5. Finland
6. Sweden
Canada and Norway lie on the same latitude as Finland and Sweden which are the northern and southern parts of Scandinavia
Answer:
divergent boundary on land
Explanation:
Divergent boundary involves the crustal spreading of two tectonic plates. Divergent boundary is the separation or rifting apart of two plates. Divergent boundary can occur between oceanic plates or continental plates.
Divergent boundary between oceanic plates , the convection currents lift the lithosphere producing a mid oceanic ridge. Extensional forces spreads the lithospheric plate apart causing an in flow of magma from the interior of the earth. The magmatic materials travels through fissure and oceanic ridges to the surface of the ocean floor. The volcanic material/magma later solidifies to form new oceanic crust with the youngest rock closest to the mid oceanic ridge.
Divergent boundary between continental plates , the convection current usually pull the continental plates upward due to the thickness of the continental plates. The continental plates are pulled thin by the extensional forces resulting to fracture. The fracture result into a rift shaped structure. Rift valleys are formed which is a lowland region. The two parts of the continents(lands) that are separated are likely to develop fault on both sides of the rifts. The fractured area along the rift valley is a region prone to earthquakes.
Rift valley are structures found in divergent boundary between continents(land) and are region of earthquakes activities because of movements and fracturing occurrence. The East African rift is an example of this kind of plates boundary.
