Answer:
This all has to do with the location of the two areas.
Explanation:
Siberia is farther away from the equator, therefore, the sun does not make direct contact with it. The equator is the middle of the earth, and because it gets more exposure to sunlight, and the sun is always directly above them in the sky, the climate is very different from areas in places like Russia, Canada, and Iceland.
Question
Mid-ocean ridges are steeper and less broad than rises because:
Group of answer choices
A) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of more dense mineral than the rises.
B) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of less dense mineral than the rises.
C) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are faster than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.
D) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are slower than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.
E) Every ridge is composed of continental crust.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
In volcanic regions, as the molten magma flows out onto the seafloor creating new beds, the faster it flows, the less steep the mid-ocean ridge is. If however, it is slow-flowing, then oceanic lithosphere formed cool closer to the ridge axis thus making it very steep.

The best answer is C.
Mercator projection is a type of map projection invented and introduced by Gerardus Mercator in the year 1569. The meridians are equally spaced, parallel vertical lines and the parallels of latitude are parallel horizontal lines spaced farther apart as their distance from the equator increases.
This projection is widely used for navigation charts because any straight line on a Mercator- projection map is a line of constant true bearing that enables a navigator to plot a straight-line course.
It is often described as a cylindrical projection but it must be derived mathematically.
The correct answer is - A) subsistence farming.
Subsistence farming is the type of farming that is mostly practiced in the less developed countries. In here we have production that is just about enough for the needs of the country (and big portion of the production doesn't even come out on the home market, but you eat what you produce, or trade with someone you know). Also this type of farming is still based on primitive tools and is heavily dependant on the climate, and that makes it very unstable and more often than not people are starving because not enough food has been produced.
