Answer:
Ghana is a West African country in Africa, along the Gulf of Guinea, just a few degrees north of the equator.
Ghana encompasses plains, low hills, rivers, Lake Volta, the world's largest artificial lake, Dodi Island and Bobowasi Island on the south Atlantic Ocean coast of Ghana.[1] Ghana can be divided into four different geographical ecoregions. The coastline is mostly a low, sandy shore backed by plains and scrub and intersected by several rivers and streams. The northern part of Ghana features high plains.[2] South-west and south-central Ghana is made up of a forested plateau region consisting of the Ashanti uplands and the Kwahu Plateau. The hilly Akwapim-Togo ranges are found along Ghana's eastern international border.[3]
The Volta Basin takes up most of south-central Ghana and Ghana's highest point is Mount Afadja which is 885 m (2,904 ft) and is found in the Akwapim-Togo ranges.[4][5] The climate is tropical and the eastern coastal belt is warm and comparatively dry, the south-west corner of Ghana is hot and humid, and the north of Ghana is warm and wet.[2] Lake Volta, the world's largest artificial lake, extends through small portions of south-eastern Ghana and many tributary rivers such as the Oti and Afram rivers flow into it.[6]
Explanation:
The northernmost part of Ghana is Pulmakong and the southernmost part of Ghana is Cape three points near Axim. Ghana lies between latitudes 4° and 12°N.[7] South Ghana contains evergreen and semi-deciduous forests consisting of trees such as mahogany, odum, ebony and it also contains much of Ghana's oil palms and mangroves with shea trees, baobabs and acacias found in the northern part of Ghana.[7]

Please mark me as the brainliest
Explanation:
All of the following describe likely air mass source regions in the summer EXCEPT: Group of answer choices the subtropical Western Atlantic Ocean Northern Mexico the Central United States the subtropical Eastern Pacific Ocean
Answer: the Central United States
Explanation:
Air mass regions in the summer are usually around the middle latitudes of the Earth which means that they are closer to the Equator. This includes subtropical regions of the world including the subtropical Eastern Pacific and Western Atlantic Oceans.
Northern Mexico is also quite close to the middle latitudes so the most logical answer from the options is Central U.S. because it is the furthest from the equator and the middle latitudes of Earth.

A015) Strike-Slip Faults - Carrizo Plain, CA. The Problem 15 placemarks highlight a stream near the Carrizo Plain in California that has been offset along the San Andreas fault zone (the San Andreas Fault is a strike-slip fault that forms a transform plate boundary between the North American and Pacific plates). Given the offset stream in the view, what is the sense of offset along this fault
Answer:
Right lateral.
Explanation:
San Andrea's fault makes a tri-junctions between the North American and the pacific plate. Being 1300 km long this fault and extends to 25 km in depth. It has a northwestern-southeastern trend and is classified as a right-lateral or dextral fault.Each day past the winter solstice the noon sun is a little higher above the southern horizon.
a. Determining how much change takes place each day at your latitude. solution.
b. Does the amount of change take place at each latitude in the Northern Hemisphere? Explain.
Answer:
In the winter days are shorter and night are longer in the northern hemisphere.
Explanation:
In the northern hemisphere the summers are much warmed than the winters. As the earth is closet to the sun in July. Each past the winter solstices noon sun is a little higher over the south. Heating and cooling give us a practice indication of the changes at different latitudes. The latitude changes can be seen by the direction and duration of the suns rays, for the northern latitudes rays are much slating and for southern hemisphere they are more direct in winter.In the three-cell model of global circulation, surface winds converge in the vicinity of: Group of answer choices subtropical highs the polar front the horse latitudes the north and south poles
Answer:
the equatorial horse latitudes
Explanation:
Global circulation can be seen as the system of winds that are necessary to transport the heat places of lower to higher latitudes. The three cells of Hadley, Ferrel, and polar These surface winds converge at the equator as the air rises from and is caused for the band of clouds that appear at or near the equator.What is the current state of Communist China in the 21st century?
Answer:
China’s Communist Party turns a century old this July, a milestone that Beijing is celebrating with a crescendo of fireworks, theatrics and a fervent campaign to honor its revolutionary past.
The party has often lurched between tragedy and triumph between its birth as an underground movement and its current dominance over the world’s most populous nation. It seized power in 1949, and its early decades in government were tumultuous, with Mao Zedong launching radical purges and a disastrous industrial program that led to one of the deadliest famines in history.
Mao’s death in 1976 precipitated political and economic changes under Deng Xiaoping that would transform an impoverished nation into a global economic powerhouse.
silicon and _______ stay in the the outer cells pls tell me fast
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
The earth has been divided into three major categories crust, mantle, and core which are further segregated into sub-parts. Since the crust is the outermost layer of the shell, the outer crust of the earth consists of a combination of silicon and oxygen in the majority followed by some percentage of other metals as well. The percentage of Oxygen includes nearly 50% i.e. 46.6% followed by 27.7% of Silicon and the other 25.3 % includes aluminum, iron, sodium, magnesium, etc. Thus, 'oxygen' is the correct answer.
The Mt. St Helens eruption in Washington state m 1980 measured 5 on the volcanic exclusivity index (VEI). Only 57 people died from the Mt. St Helens since most people were warned to evacuate the area prior to the event, Four years later, in 1985, del Ruiz in Colombia erupted. While only measuring 3 on the VEI, the eruption resulted in 25,000 deaths when unsuspecting residents of local towns were overrun by fast-moving lahars. Which of the following statements about volcano-related deaths best fit the information given in the paragraph?
a. Volcanic eruptions often kill thousands of people.
b. The death toll from volcanic eruptions do not always correlate to exclusivity, and can be affected by human actions before and after the eruption.
c. Most volcano-related deaths occur from lahars.
d. The death toll from a volcanic eruption is directly related to its volcanic exclusivity index (VEl).
Answer:
b. The death toll from volcanic eruptions do not always correlate to exclusivity, and can be affected by human actions before and after the eruption.
Explanation:
Many volcanic eruptions don't kill anyone. This is because most active volcanoes are well-known to local residents, who give them appropriate respect.
Lahars are deadly, but so are pyroclastic flows, and releases of ash and/or poison gases. The two deadliest eruptions in recorded history caused death by starvation and tsunami.
The point of the paragraph was that the VEI was not directly related to the number of deaths.
A017) Strike-Slip Faults - Kazakhstan. The Problem 17 placemark points to an elliptical-shaped plutonic intrusion in Kazakhstan near Lake Balkhash that has been offset by a fault. Given the offset boundaries of the pale-colored igneous rock in the view, what is the sense of offset along this fault
Answer:
RIGHT LATERAL
Explanation:
From the excerpt: A017) Strike-Slip Faults - Kazakhstan.
Sense of offset along the fault is RIGHT LATERAL and this is because the fault present there is known as Dzhungarian Fault which is either right lateral or dextral strike-slip fault. with an extension of 300 km from the Dzhungarian basin.

Semi-permanent features present in the real world the average surface pressure and wind pattern during January are: Group of answer choices low pressure over the US desert southwest low pressure over Asia the inter-tropical convergence zone positioned north of the equator high pressure over Canada and Asia
Answer: high pressure over Canada and Asia
Explanation:
Temperature affects air pressure, it should be noted that if the air is warm, they then exert less pressure when they are being compared to cold, dense air.
Semi-permanent features present in the real world the average surface pressure and wind pattern during January are high pressure over Canada and Asia.
Geomagnetic reversals __________. Group of answer choices Provide strong evidence for sea floor spreading Reveal that polar wandering may have occurred. Were discovered by the Deep Sea Drilling Project Confirmed the existence of subduction zones Cause the movement of plates
Answer:
The answer is "Provide strong evidence for seafloor spreading".
Explanation:
The magnetic changes from east to west and vice versa are geomagnetic. geomagnetic reversals. And they can provide significant evidence of the expansion of sea bed in the rocks formed along the middle sea ridges by documenting the geomagnetic pattern of echo.
A new crust is developing from the magma explosion into the seafloor in the ocean along the mid-oceanic ridges along the mid-ocean ridges. When the magma cools, the minerals of ferromagnetism found in the magma will align as per the magnetosphere of this time.
In the event of geomagnetical revolutions, newly formed minerals will be reverse-aligned to early elements, thus registering the lithosphere on both sides of the mid-oceanic ridge. Lithosphere, one could argue, is a continual move away from oceanic crusts midway through.
