The graph shows the change in forest cover across various regions of the world between 1990 and 2010. Identify the location where deforestation seems to be most rampant and unregulated.

Answer:

La región de América Latina y El Caribe cubre alrededor de 2050 m de ha y está conformada por 42 países con una población estimada de 505 m para el 2000. El tamaño de la región y la gran variedad de condiciones ecológicas favorables que presenta, sumadas a una densidad poblacional relativamente baja de 0,25 personas/ha y a tasas de urbanización que alcanzan el 75% han permitido el desarrollo y conservación de niveles extremadamente altos de biodiversidad. Según el Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente, (PNUMA)1, cinco de los diez países más ricos en términos de biodiversidad se encuentran en la LAC; además, la región presenta un 36% de los principales alimentos cultivados y especies industriales. La región más extensa de bosque tropical no fragmentado se encuentra en la Cuenca Amazónica, a esto se añade que la región posee un 28% del área forestal mundial - aproximadamente 1000 millones de ha para 1994.

Parte de esta abundancia surge de las condiciones climáticas relativamente favorables de la región. Esta cuenta con un 40 por ciento del total de áreas húmedas y con aproximadamente la mitad del total de los recursos hídricos renovables de los países en desarrollo, no obstante, presenta únicamente el cuatro por ciento de tierras áridas y semiáridas. Alrededor del 90% del territorio de la LAC corresponde a tierras húmedas y subhúmedas.

En 1999 la LAC poseía alrededor de 160 m de ha de tierra cultivada2, incluyendo 18 m de ha bajo riego. Esto representa únicamente el 18% del potencial estimado de la región3; además se estima que no más del 1% del agua disponible en la LAC se utiliza en la actualidad4. Aproximadamente 600 m de ha son tierras de pastoreo. La región es importante al nivel mundial en un sinnúmero de cultivos y por lo general obtiene rendimientos por encima del promedio de los países en desarrollo.

Con un promedio de US$ 3 940 del PIB per capita en 1998, la LAC es la región en desarrollo más rica del mundo y es también una de las que menos depende de la agricultura - tan sólo un 8% del PIB provenía de este sector en 1998. Puesto que el crecimiento del valor agregado agrícola es menor que para la industria o servicios, es muy probable que esta proporción continúe descendiendo. Más aún, la información nutricional de la FAO indica que la dieta promedio de la LAC contiene 120% de la necesidad energética mínima requerida al día5, mientras que el índice alimentario regional per cápita según la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL) experimentó un incremento del 15% durante el período 1980-19976.

A pesar de lo mencionado anteriormente, en la región existen serios problemas de equidad. No solamente los poderosos controlan una de las mayores proporciones de recursos del mundo7, sino que además existe un fuerte sesgo urbano. Según estimados de la CEPAL8 en 1997, el 54% de hogares rurales de la región se catalogó como pobre, en contraste con un 30% en las áreas urbanas. La extrema pobreza9 afectó al 31% de hogares rurales, y únicamente al 10% en las áreas urbanas. En total, se determinó que 47 m de habitantes rurales viven en la extrema pobreza y que 78 m están en la pobreza. Las cifras de pobreza internacionales varían considerablemente en los países estudiados en la región -entre el 2% de la población que percibe un ingreso menor a 1US$ diario en Uruguay (cifras de 1989) y el 40% que recibe esta misma cantidad tanto en Guatemala como en Honduras10. Los problemas de equidad son particularmente evidentes con respecto a la distribución de la tierra11.

Explanation:

the collision of the African Plate with Eurasia

Answer:

El movimiento altersistema, y en ocasiones llamado como altermundismo o movimiento antiglobalización , es un amplio conjunto de movimientos sociales formado por activistas provenientes de distintas corrientes políticas, que a finales del siglo XX convergieron en la crítica social al proceso de globalización.

Existe cierta controversia sobre el término que define a este movimiento. Muchos de sus partidarios prefieren el término «altermundismo» o «alterglobalización», para evitar definirse por oposición, y porque el término «antiglobalización» daría una imagen imprecisa y negativa. El nombre altermundismo proviene precisamente del lema Otro mundo es posible, es un movimiento social heterogéneo compuesto por simpatizantes de muy variados perfiles, que proponen que la globalización y el desarrollo humano se basen en prioridad en los valores sociales y ambientales, en oposición a quienes los centran en el neoliberalismo económico, nacido en el Foro Social Mundial,[1] que cada año reúne a movimientos sociales de cientos de países del mundo.

El antiglobalismo acusa al actual proceso de globalización de beneficiar a las grandes multinacionales y a los países más ricos[2] acentuando la precarización del trabajo, y consolidando un modelo de desarrollo económico injusto e insostenible. También lo acusa de socavar la capacidad democrática de los Estados, entre otros aspectos negativos.[3][4][5]

The correct answer B. Coral.

Explanation

An atoll is a geological formation that is an island of coral origin that forms in the ocean. Atolls are generally ring-shaped. These islands are formed when reefs formed around a volcanic island once it sinks into the ocean. Many of the atolls on earth are in the Pacific Ocean area. According to the above, the correct answer is B. Coral.

Answer: D. The economy was struggling in much of 2009.

Explanation:

In 2009, the ownership of mp3 players seemed to dip from April to September and only recovered afterwards.

Laptop computer ownership may not have decreased but stopped growing and remained the same in the same period. Desktop computer decreased in ownership and even Cellphone ownership decreased as well.

This means that all four gadgets were affected in 2009 in a negative manner which means that the economy struggled in that time period in 2009.

Answer: All of these strategies help but also have a back side but i probably would go with the Curved Sea walls

Explanation:  sea walls are classified under term hard engineering which simply means ways to control natural processes The curved sea walls are built to on Larger scale concreted curve walls which are designed to reflect wave energy and they are easily  made in good areas of higher density and have a life span of up to 30-40 years which is more relatable and a bit long but it also have its weakness being it Expensive and its foundation might be undermined but it still is the best strategy

Answer:

In simple words, there existed no living on Earth for the first few million years since the environment was unsuitable for life. The original atmosphere of the Earth had a lot of water vapor but practically little oxygen. Volcanic activity blasted substances into the atmosphere such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and water vapor, but no pure oxygenation.

Explanation:

Answer:

left to right

Explanation:

Answer:

Sedimentary rocks: They are made of weather pieces of rocks

They are formed above earth's surface

Both: They have a diverse composition, they may contain many types of minerals.

They are solid at room temperatures.

Intrusive Igneous Rocks: They are made of molten rocks called magma.

They are formed in Earth's crust or mantle.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks:

first one is obvious, sedimentary rocks are made from weathering

second one is tricky, although both Sedimentary rocks and Igneous Rocks could potentially form above earth's surface, the category provided here is "Intrusive Igneous Rocks", which is formed under Earth's surface, only extrusive Igneous rocks are formed above Earth's surface.

Both:

They are both rocks not minerals so they definitely have diverse compositions.

And one of the factors of rocks is that they are solid in room temperature.

Intrusive Igneous Rocks:

Igneous rocks are made when magma cools down.

Earth's crust is the solid part and the most outer part of Earth's layer, Extrusive Igneous rocks happened to form here when magma cools down and solidifies, mantle is the second outer part of Earth, where some intrusive rocks are solidified while still in the magma.

Answer:

1. [tex]p = \frac{m}{v}[/tex]

2. The equation to calculate Density is Mass / Volume. You are given that the density is 5.45 and the mass is 65; 5.45 = 65 / v. So v = 65 / 5.45; v = 11.93 mL (or if you want your answer to consider significant figures, v = 12 mL).

3.

m = 43.5 g

V = 50 mL

d = 43.5 g / 50 mL = 0.87 g/mL

Density of this cooking oil is 0.87 g/mL.

Answer:

Due to lack of water and atmosphere.

Explanation:

The largest craters on the Moon and Mercury are larger than those found on Earth because craters dominate the surfaces of Mercury and the Earth's Moon due to absence of water. Both moon and mercury lack liquid water on their surfaces that would remove the impact of craters with the passage of time. They also absence of an atmosphere on planets like the Earth and Venus, that could disintegrate meteoroids before they comes in contact to the surface.
