<h2>Answer: Spring tides and Neap tides.
</h2>
The tides are periodic movements of the great masses of water on our planet as part of the gravitational attraction exerted by the moon and the sun on Earth.
In this sense, there are two very special cases:
The Spring and Neap tides.
<h2>Spring tides </h2>
Occur when there is a full moon or new moon, which makes the tides higher. During these lunar phases, <u>the Moon, the Earth and the Sun are aligned and the </u><u>gravitational attraction power is greater.
</u>
<h2>Neap tides </h2>
Occur when <u>the moon, the earth and the sun form a right angle</u> (
), being the gravity attraction on the masses of water the <u>minimum</u>. This happens in the crescent and wanning phases.
Answer:
<u>A tropical cyclone</u> is a vortex-shaped storm that forms in a tropical depression in the oceans.
It is formed <em>due to a system of strong rotating circular winds.</em>
The answer is rainforests. The destruction of rainforests can lead to global warming due to the accumulation of carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. This is because rainforests are major carbon sinks because they sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. One of the major rainforests that are facing the threat of human activities is the Amazon and Congo forests.
The answer is south america’s location atop the Nazca and South American plates of the circum-pacific belt. The circum-pacific belt is also known as the ‘ring of fire’ because there is a subduction zone in the region. The Cocos plate is subducting under the Caribbean Plate. This creates friction between the two plates with occasional release of high amounts of energies when a stuck region gets unstuck abruptly. This region accounts for approximately 90% of the world’s earthquakes.
