Explanation:
The reason that Antarctica is unclaimed is due to the Antarctic treaty signed by 12 developed nation in 1956 (and since then 38 nations) which states that no nation can claim the region. This treaty was aimed at protecting the continent’s ecozone (from military operations and mineral exploitation, etc) that is essential or the planet. Due to the harsh environment on the continent, it is also inhabitable and is more or less unoccupied.

The volcanoes of many Hawaiian island are extinct because
a) the subduction processes that formed the volcanoes have ceased.
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
c) the volcanoes are now below sea level.
d) the hot spot that formed them has moved.
Answer:
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
Explanation:
The Hawaiian islands all have volcanic origin. Some are not active, while some still are. All of these islands have been active volcanoes at one point of time, and they have been created by a hot spot that lies beneath the Pacific plate. The hot spot has such a power that it actually manages to break through the central part of the plate where its crust is the strongest and densest. As the magma manages to come out above the water, it manages to create volcanic islands. The Pacific plate though is moving, it is not static, so it drags the volcanic islands away from the hot spot, causing their extinguishing. As those islands are moved away, the hot spot creates new volcanic islands, and the process constantly continuous, resulting in a volcanic island chain.
Under natural conditions, oceans are _____.
self-cleaning systems
ideal waste-dumping grounds
of no use to humans
most damaged by air pollution
I believe the answer is that under natural conditions oceans are self-cleaning systems.
Answer:
Under natural conditions, oceans are self-cleaning systems.
Explanation:
The oceans usually do not house any waste, unwanted material in themselves. The ocean waves either dispose off the waste material back on the shores, or the saline ocean water decays the degradable material. The marine organisms are also majorly responsible for keeping the oceans clean. These animals eat up edible waste and control pollution in the oceans. The lavas erupting at the bottoms of the oceans burn up the nearby non-biodegradable material. Thus, in natural conditions, oceans are self-cleaning systems.Cutting down vast tracks of rain forest may result in which of the following effects on the environment?

How are lowland areas, like the Amazon River Basin, important in Latin America?
The lowland areas of Latin America are very important because of multiple reasons. The majority of the agriculture and farming of animals is taking place in the areas like this, so the food sector is directly connected with them. On top of the agricultural production, these lowlands produce a lot of food on their own. The industries that use as their main material also are directly dependent on these lowlands, as they are mostly covered with numerous types of high quality tropical tree species. There's thousands of species of plants that are used in the medicine, so the pharmacies are also very dependent on them. All in all, these lowlands managed to contribute a lot in the economy, health, and general well being of the Latin American countries.
_______ you would expect volcanoes that are sometimes
Explosive and with andesitic magma/ lava with silica content of about 60% .
a) rift zones
b) oceanic hotspots
c) subduction boundaries
d) continental hot spots
Answer:
c) subduction boundaries
Explanation:
The subduction boundaries, also known as convergent boundaries, are the ones that most commonly give rise to intermediate (andesitic) volcanoes. These volcanoes are know by the term strato volcanoes. The magma from these volcanoes has a relatively high silica content, making it highly viscous. That also means that the magma manages to trap the gasses in it, thus increasing the gas content in it. This results in very explosive and effusive eruptions, because as the magma moves toward the surface, the pressure and temperature significantly change, causing the trapped gasses to explode. This type of magma comes as lava flow, but because it is highly viscous, it only manages to come out on a very small area around its source.
south america has mostly been settled
Answer:
B. Along the coasts.
Explanation:
Final answer:
The settlement patterns and cultural geography of South America are deeply interwoven with its colonial legacy. Various regions display a mix of ethnic majorities that define their cultural identity, with the impact of European colonization being particularly significant.
Explanation:
The settlement and cultural geography of South America have been deeply influenced by its colonial history. Spain and Portugal were the main colonial powers, each establishing territories throughout the continent, except for the Guianas which were colonized by other European nations. This colonial past has resulted in various cultural regions based on the majority ethnic groups and their activities. The legacy of this past includes the African and Asian diasporas that contribute to the continent's diversity, such as the Asian-majority populations in Guyana and Suriname, and the European-majority populations in Argentina and Uruguay.
The physical conditions, including the resource-rich Andean West region, and the urban centers in countries like Venezuela, Colombia, and the Southern Cone, have also played a significant role in shaping the continent's development. The blend of cultures from indigenous groups, Europeans, Africans, and Asians has created a unique cultural mosaic that is essential to understanding South America's human development patterns.

In addition to surface tension, what's responsible for driving ocean waves?
A. The Coriolis effect B. Thermohaline circulation C. Drag from wind D. Centrifugal force
Answer:
The drag from wind holds the responsibility for driving ocean waves in addition to the surface tension.
Explanation:
The ocean currents at the first 100 m of its surface is moved by the wind drag. Whereas, the ocean currents flowing below the thousand meters of its surface are driven by water's density gradient, which is governed by thermohaline circulation, 'thermo' means temperature and 'haline' means salinity. The centrifugal force has no role to do in driving the ocean current in its surface and earth's rotation causes the Coriolis effect which is an example of hurricane winds.
In addition to surface tension, drag from wind is responsible for driving ocean waves. The correct option is c.
The drag caused by wind moving across the ocean's surface is the main cause of waves. The wind's interaction with the water causes energy to be transferred to the surface where it causes ripples that eventually develop into waves. Although it does contribute to wave formation surface tension is not the main force behind it.
Large-scale ocean currents rotate due to the Coriolis effect (A) but ocean waves are not directly affected by this phenomenon. Wave generation is not directly related to thermohaline circulation (B) which is the movement of deep ocean currents caused by variations in temperature and salinity. Ocean waves are not significantly influenced by centrifugal force (D).

A. map projection
B. Mercator process
C. longitude division
D. globalization
Most probably its C or B
Answer:
The mathematical way of transferring information from the earth’s "three-dimensional curved surface" to a "two-dimensional medium", such as paper or a computer screen is called "map projection".
Explanation:
For the convenience of easy projection, three-dimensional objects are transferred to a two-dimensional medium using the process called 'map projection'. In other words, 'map projection' is a method of converting a sphere or a globe to a "two-dimensional representation". This is usually done for the convenience of better visualization and for taking approximate measurements.Choose the correct association for: dense bushes
rain forest or jungle
savanna
Answer:
Dense Bushes would be found in the jungle.
Answer:
The correct association for dense bushes would be Savanna.
Explanation:
The physical setting of Savanna favors the growth of shrubs in abundance. The trees in Savanna are placed on wide distances allowing the sunlight to reach the ground. This allows and favors the growth of herbaceous layers of grasses and smaller plants like woody bushes. In a rainforest, the trees are closely placed and in most instances don't allow the sunlight to penetrate through their dense canopies.Which represents the MOST appropriate tone to use if writing a text message to a friend inviting him to a party?

Which solids can have vertical cross sections that are circles? Check all that apply. cones prisms cylinders pyramids spheres
Cones, cylinders and spheres can have vertical cross-sections that are circles.
Of the geometric shapes listed, cones, cylinders, and spheres can all produce circular vertical cross sections. This is due to their symmetrical nature and specific geometric structure.
Explanation:In the field of Mathematics, when a solid is cut by a plane perpendicular to its axis of symmetry, the cross section can form a circle. This is seen in the following geometrical solids: cones, cylinders, and spheres.
With cones, a vertical cut will yield a circular cross section. Both cylinders and spheres will also produce a circular cross section when vertically cut. The key to identifying these solids is their symmetrical nature and their ability to produce circular cross sections.
Therefore, among the solids you mentioned, prisms and pyramids don't have vertical cross sections that are circles. These shapes, due to their geometric structure, will not yield circular cross sections when cut vertically.

Which of the following is/are responsible for giving a galaxy its particular shape?
A. Dark matter
B. Supermassive black holes
C. Dust and gas
D. Cosmic microwave background radiation
Answer:
The "dark matter" is responsible for giving a "galaxy its particular shape".
Explanation:
In a galaxy, it is mainly the dark matter that holds the galaxy together. A galaxy that is in motion exerts centrifugal force on the planets, stars and other material. This force tends the planets and stars to move away from the "center of the galaxy". On the other hand, the dark matter deploys gravitational force on the material present in the galaxy which holds it in its place.Answer:

Explanation:
A student conducts an experiment to see how music affects plant growth. The student obtains four identical plants. Each one is potted in the same type of soil and receives the same amount of sunlight and water each day. Plant A listens to classical music for three hours each day. Plant B listens to rock music for three hours each day. Plant C listens to country music for three hours each day. Plant D does not listen to any music at all.
8. In the experiment described in the scenario, which group represents the control group?
A. Plant B B. Plant A C. Plant D D. Plant C
Answer: C) Plant D
Explanation:
While the other plants are being tested on, the scientist(s) can always refer back to Plant D because there is no experimenting taking place.
The correct answer is Plant D.
The group that represents the control group is plant "D," the one that does not listen to any music at all. This is the plant that is not being tested and serves as the model that represents the control group. If you want to know what is the variable in this experiment, then it would be the type of music each plant is listening to.

Which statement about the focus of an earthquake is true?
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
b) Along a divergent boundary, an earthquake's focus can be as much as 5000 kilometers beneath
Earth's surface.
c) Energy only travels upward from an earthquake's focus.
d) The focus is the point above the epicenter.
Answer:
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
Explanation:
The earthquakes occur as a result of the adjustments that happen deep below the surface, where the crust cracks under the enormous pressure, and the gaps opened up from it are filled with other rocks. When that happens, the amount of energy that is released is enormous, casing strong vibrations that manage to reach the surface as well as cause a lot of damage. The place where the earthquake appears is called focus of the earthquake, and it is located deep below the surface. The place above it in a vertical straight line on the surface is called the epicenter. The vibrations spread around in concentric circles, being most intense near the place of origin, and weakening as they move further.
what could be the effects of polluting the water in a small mountain stream
Answer: Water pollution can have disastrous effects on the environment.
Explanation:
Pollution in the water can reach a point where there isn't enough oxygen in the water for the fish to breathe. The fish can suffocate and not have enough air.Pollution affects the entire food chain. Small fishes absorb pollutants, such as chemicals, into their bodies. Bigger fishes eat the smaller fishes and get the pollutants as well. Birds or other animals may eat the bigger fishes and be harmed by the pollutants. One example of this was the use of the insecticide (bug killer) DDT, which is when birds of prey ate fishes that were infected with it, they would lay eggs with thin shells. The population of birds of prey began to drop until DDT was banished. Sewage causes major problems in rivers. Bacteria in the water will use oxygen to break down the sewage. If there is too much sewage, the bacteria could use up oxygen until there won't be enough left for the fish. Water pollution from major events like acid rain or oil spills can completely destroy marine habitats.One of the most important commodities for life on planet Earth is clean water. For over 1 billion people on the planet, clean water is nearly impossible to get. Dirty, polluted water can make them sick enough to die.The ecology might suffer greatly as a result of water contamination could be the effects of polluting the water in a small mountain stream.
What is the concept of the excerpt?Water pollution can get so bad that the fish can't breathe since there isn't enough oxygen in the water. Lack of air can cause the fish to suffocate. All food chains are impacted by pollution. Pollutants like chemicals are absorbed by little fish and end up in their systems.
Smaller fish are eaten by larger fish, who also consume the contaminants. The larger fish may be consumed by birds or other animals, who may then be affected by the contaminants.
One instance of this was the usage of the insecticide DDT, which caused birds of prey to produce eggs with fragile shells after consuming fish that were infected with it. Up until DDT was banned, the number of raptor birds started to decline.
Thus, The ecology might suffer greatly as a result of water contamination.
