Geography
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Bordered by Jordan to the east and by Israel and Palestine to the west, the Dead Sea is a landlocked lake rather than a true sea, and is recognized as one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth. Its name is well earned — no fish, birds or plants can survive in its high-saline environment

Which of the following scenarios best describes how the Hawaiian Islands formed in the Pacific Ocean? View Available Hint(s) Whi
pogonyaev

The correct answer is - Magma generated from a hot spot burned through the overlying plate to create volcanoes.

The Hawaiian Islands are all formed as a result of volcanic activity of a hot spot. The hot spot is stationary, but the islands are in the shape of a chain, not all in the same place. Also, the rocks on the islands that do not have active volcanoes are older, than the ones that do have volcanic activity. This suggests that the Pacific plate is moving. According the direction in which the islands are arranged, the Pacific plate seems to move toward northwest. As it moves, it moves over the hot spot. Since the hot spot is stationary, as the Pacific plate moves, eventually the volcanic activity will stop on the island that has moved further away from the hot spot. The magma from the hot spot will penetrate through the crust that came to be over it. That will result in new volcanic island emerging from the sea over the hot spot. The process goes on for millions of years, and it can result in hundreds of islands of volcanic origin.

How was the path of Hurricane Ike different than the storm of Galveston 1900
olga_2 [115]

Answer: After the hurricane, Galveston raised the elevation of many new buildings by more than 10 feet (3 meters). The city also built an extensive seawall to act as a buffer against future storms. Despite the reconstruction, the city's status as the premier shipping port was lost to Houston a few years after the disaster. Ike, however, is projected to head west on a path that will take it close to Hispaniola, Cuba, and the Florida Straits.”

In complete sentences, discuss the three major religions in Western Europe. Which is the most dominant religion, and how has it
weeeeeb [17]

The tree largest religions in Western Europe are the Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.

Depending on the county in Western Europe, there are differences in the type of Christianity type practiced, with the Catholicism and Protestantism being the most dominant ones. The Islam is the second largest religion, relatively new in this part of the continent and also a relatively quick growing one. The Judaism is the third largest religion in this part of Europe, but it has much less followers than the top two. The atheism is worth mentioning, despite not being a religion but the opposite of it, as the non-religious population in Western Europe is actually the second largest one, in front of the Islam and Judaism.

The culture of this region has largely been shaped and set on the foundations of the Christianity, mostly the Catholicism, with later diverging fraction of it. The Church has played a big role in the societies, politics, economy of this region for almost two millenniums, so it is carved in the cultural aspects of the nations living there.
