Calcrete or Caliche is a type of sedimentary rock often found in arid and semiarid regions. It is composed of calcium carbonate with bits of gravel, clay and silt. It is found in Australia, Kalahari Desert, Sonoran and Mojave desert. Note that caliche does not form through dissolution and reprecipitation of rainwater. Rather, it forms when water from the ground rise above through capillary action, bringing up minerals from the ground into the surface.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

La Paz is a bit more densely populated than Lima, since the former has a population density slightly higher than this of latter.

Explanation:

In this case, we need to know the populations and occupied area of the city. By definition, population density is the ratio of the population of the city to the occupied area in the same location.

The required information is gathered below:

La Paz (Bolivia)

Occupied area: 475 square kilometers.

Population density: 3792 inhabitants per square kilometer.

Lima (Perú)

Population: 9.674 million

Occupied area: 2672 square kilometers.

Population density: 3621 inhabitants per square kilometer.

In this case, La Paz is a bit more densely populated than Lima, since the former has a population density slightly higher than this of latter.
