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.

what are the impacts of land relief on agriculture?​

Answers

Topography relates to how difficult it is to till land, soil erosion and poor transportation networks and facilities. Agriculture can be mechanized depending on the topography of land to be used. It's impossible to use farm machinery on sloppy land or rough, hilly slopes. Climate, land relief, soil and vegetation are the main factors which influence agricultural activity. The growth of plants depends on the temperature and humidity of the land and the amount of light it receives. The relief of the land determines the type of activity that takes place on the land. In highlands such as hills mountains and plateaus where the slope of the land is generally steep the land is used for grazing sheep and goats. ... Terrace farming is also undertaken on hilly slopes to grow crop such as rice barley and tea.

Regional Geography lays emphasis on the distinctiveness of a particular place and the characteristics or activities that make up that location. With specific examples from Ghana and knowledge acquired in the Regional Geography of Ghana course so far, discuss the above statement.


Answers

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]

What is the current state of Communist China in the 21st century?

Answers

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.

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).

Answers

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.
