Answer:
They are meeting at the North Pole. the North Pole & South Pole are the only places where lines of longitude meet and the distance is 0 miles.
Explanation:
Unlike parallels, which are always parallel to each other, meridians converge as they approach the poles. This causes a degree of longitude to vary from approximately 69 statute miles at the Equator (a great circle) to 0 miles at the poles.

How have humans changed the environment and what are the consequences of these changes ?
Explanation:
Humans have changed the environment by evolving and using natural resources, with the natural resources slowly dwindling down is will affect the earth greatly. The earth won't be able to regenerate the resources fast enough for us to use them. The consequences are that we will burn up the earths valuables and end up stripping the earth of primary resources, making the earth weaken and have nothing to provide animals or other living creatures. Humans have heated up the environment, cut down many forests, made many species extinct and already stripped many key resources.
how are earthquakes related to tectonic activities
Answer:
just tryin' to help you
The tectonic plates are always slowly moving, but they get stuck at their edges due to friction. When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth's crust and cause the shaking that we feel.
Name the river that the Hebrews settled nearby in Canaan
Answer: Canaan, area variously defined in historical and biblical literature, but always centered on Palestine. Its original pre-Israelite inhabitants were called Canaanites. The names Canaan and Canaanite occur in cuneiform, Egyptian, and Phoenician writings from about the 15th century BCE as well as in the Old Testament. In these sources, “Canaan” refers sometimes to an area encompassing all of Palestine and Syria, sometimes only to the land west of the Jordan River, and sometimes just to a strip of coastal land from Acre (Akko) northward. The Israelites occupied and conquered Palestine, or Canaan, beginning in the late 2nd millennium BCE, or perhaps earlier; and the Bible justifies such occupation by identifying Canaan with the Promised Land, the land promised to the Israelites by God.

4. Which description of the hydrologic cycle (Water Cycle) is best?
A. Ice Melts and increases the ocean volume causing flooding
B. Ice seeps into the ground doubling the size of aquifers
C. Water dries out in certain regions but floods in others
D. Water evaporates into the atmosphere and returns as precipitation
Answer:
The manner in which the hydrologic cycle can be described in simple words is that the water evaporates into the atmosphere and returns as precipitation.
Explanation:
A is not correct because this describes the changes in the water bodies and their condition depending on the climate.
B is not correct because this describes how the ice influences the water bodies located underground.
C is not correct because this describes the distribution of water based on climate conditions.
D is correct because it describes the hydrologic cycle in a simple manner, with the water evaporating into the atmosphere, then it condensates when conditions form precipitation (rain, snow, hale) occurs and falls on the surface.

What is the HELIOCENTRIC model of the solar system?
Answer:
The heliocentric model of the solar system is the one that suggests that the sun is in the center of the universe and everything revolves around it.
Explanation:
There have been few models throughout history when it comes to the arrangement and hierarchy of the objects in space. Most of them have been wrong, though they have persisted for a very long time. Some, like the heliocentric model, got some basics right, but it still had some mistakes which from today's perspective are big ones.
The heliocentric model suggests that the Sun is the center of the universe, with all other objects in space orbiting around it. Now, it did guess right that the planets in the solar system revolve around it and that it is in the center of it, but it made a big mistake by putting the Sun in the center of the universe, not just the solar system. Not just that the Sun is not in the center of the universe, it is not even close to the center of the galaxy in which it is, nor it is the largest object or the one with the biggest gravity so that it attracts everything around to revolve around it.
compare and contrast the lines of latitude and longitude. How are they same and how are they different??
Answer:
Explanation:
To compare and contrast these imaginary lines of latitude and longitude, we must first understand their meaning.
What are lines of longitude and latitude?
A line of longitude is an imaginary line on the earth surface that specifies the east to west direction of a place on the earth surface.
A line of latitude is an imaginary line on the earth surface that specifies the north to south location of a place on the earth surface.
Both lines of latitude and longitude gives the specific location of a place on the earth surface.
Lines of latitude runs from north to south whereas line of longitude runs from east to west. All line of longitude are great circles, they cut the earth into two whereas all lines of latitude are small circles except the equator. Lines of longitude are numbered from 0° to 180° whereas lines of latitude are numbered 0° to 90°58:35

Which of the following regions can be defined by its physical boundaries?
A. O New England
B.
The Midwest
C
Colorado
D. Hawaii
The region that can be defined by its physical boundaries is Hawaii. Thus the correct option is D.
What are the physical boundaries?Natural barriers that distinguish different or more locations are known as physical boundaries. Physical borders can be valleys, cliffs, or oceans. Your right to privacy, and to avoid having your territory invaded, is all protected by physical limits.
The region that can be defined by its physical boundaries is Hawaii as it is an island that is surrounded by water from sides which distinguishes its boundaries as oceans.
Hawaii has a diverse topography that includes volcanic deserts, fern and bamboo rainforests, jagged ocean cliffs, foggy plateaus, and tropical coastal regions. Hawaii is the only state in the union that is made up completely of islands and was created by eruptions.
Therefore, option D is appropriate.

Find the midpoint between (0,0) and (-4,-12)
(29) and (5,1)
Answer:
-2, -6
[tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] , 5
Explanation:
Given coordinates;
(0,0) and (-4,-12)
(2, 9) and (5,1)
Unknown:
Midpoints of the coordinates = ?
Solution:
The coordinates of the midpoint are given as;
x[tex]_{m}[/tex] , y[tex]_{m}[/tex] =( [tex]\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1} + y_{2} }{2}[/tex])
Now;
x₁= 0 x₂ = -4 y₁ = 0 y₂ = -12
Input the parameters and solve;
x[tex]_{m}[/tex], y[tex]_{m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{0+(-4)}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{0+ (-12)}{2}[/tex] = -2, -6
For (2, 9) and (5,1)
x₁= 2 x₂ = 5 y₁ = 9 y₂ = 1
x[tex]_{m}[/tex], y[tex]_{m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2 + 5}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{9 + 1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] , 5

to find the surface area of a cube also to use the formula SA=6s2
Answer:Its 15
Explanation:
Studies have shown that there is a relationship between the type and location of boundaries and the distribution and depth of earthquakes along or near these boundaries. Many earthquakes, shown in the map as wide bands, occur along convergent areas. These areas experience varying depths of earthquakes. Where would oceanic-oceanic convergence most likely occur? Nazca plate converging with the South America plate, forming the Andes mountains Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean Juan de Fuca converging with the North American plate, forming the Cascade mountains North America Plate converging with the Eurasian Plate, forming a mid-ocean ridge
Answer:
Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean
Explanation:
Oceanic convergence is the process resulting from the impact generated by the collision of two oceanic plates. This impact causes the heavier plate to sink to the point of being below the less heavy plate. The stronger the impact, the lower the heavier ocean plate will descend and the further it descends, the more it will be heated by the earth's mantle. As this plate is heated, the materials that melt and are incorporated into the mantle that increases in volume to the point of creating cracks in the terrestrial surface. This is how volcanic islands are formed, as well as cracks, similar to trenches on the seabed, are also created. Most of these volcanic islands are located in the Pacific, in the most easterly region. A strong example of this type of phenomenon is the Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean.

B) Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean

Each layer of a tropical rainforest provides an ideal habitat for different forms of wildlife. Which three descriptions show that this is true? Mammals such as monkeys and sloths live in the middle canopy.Animals like deer and rodents live on the forest floor.Biodiversity levels are low.Birds live in the top canopy.
Answer:
Explanation:
Mammals such as monkeys and sloths live in the middle canopy.
Animals like deer and rodents live on the forest floor.
Birds live in the top canopy.
We have the emergent layer, the canopy layer, understory layer in rainforest.
The emergent layer are made of tall trees find at the top and because they are tall animal such as birds and climbing animals are found here.
Canopy layer consist of tall tress of about 100m they form canopies and have leaves that shades the underground. Animals that feeds on fruit such as monkeys are found here
Understory layer is found below the canopy layer usually the shades area with little light penetration. Animals like insect, rodent, deer are found in the underground canopy.
