Answer:
The former Soviet Union is influenced by the consumer culture of the West.
Explanation:
The former Soviet Union was a communist country that had a command economy. This type of economy meant that the economy is closed to the world and people had no choice when it came to consumption, but only what the government decided they will consume. With the fall of the Soviet Union, this changed, at least in most parts.
Most of the countries that emerged from the Soviet Union have transformed or are still transitioning toward open market economies. This opened up the economies which resulted in a lot of foreign investments, fascilities, and brands coming to these markets. Being totally restricted until then, when people suddenly had an opportunity to choose what they want to buy and consume, they jumped on it. Very soon a consumer culture, typical for the West has developed. This can not be said about the likes of Belarus, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan though, as they are still closed to the world.
Outline one advantage of sourcing food locally in the UK.
Explanation:
Purchasing meat from your local butcher or farmers' market will provide you with produce of far superior quality. ... Using local producers also cuts down on the number of food miles; that is, how far your food has travelled to reach you, which reduces carbon emissions and has a positive effect on the environment.
Which statement best describes the theory of plate tectonics?
A. Plates sometimes move closer to one another.
B. Sections of Earth that shift are part of Earth's asthenosphere.
C. Sections of Earth's continents are in slow, constant movement.
C. Parts of the ocean floor move as they are carried by rift valleys,
Answer:
Sections of Earth's continents are in slow, constant movement.
Explanation:
Earth's crust is broken up and divided into numerous pieces. These pieces are called tectonic plates and they come in various shapes and sizes. The tectonic plates can consist predominantly of continental crust or predominantly of oceanic crust, and there isn't a single plate that is exclusively made out just from one type of crust.
The reason why Earth's crust is broken apart is the force that comes from the convection currents from the mantle below it. Not just that the convection currents break up the crust, but they also push it in a certain direction. By doing so, the convection currents manage to move the tectonic plates on Earth's surface, and even though this is a slow movement, it has huge effects.
Answer: C Sections of Earth’s continents are in slow, constant movement.

Which are reasons why so many people live on the ring of fire?
Check all that apply.
A. Many tourists are drawn to the beauty created by the volcanic islands and mountains near the ocean.
B. The tsunami prediction industry created jobs, causing many people to move to areas where they are needed.
C. There has been considerable development of the earthquake and volcano prediction industry.
D. Subduction zones are often located in good places for seaports
Answer:
Subduction zones are often located in good places for seaports.
Explanation:
The Ring of Fire is located on the edges of the Pacific Ocean. It lies near subduction zones, thus near convergent plate boundaries where plates go below other plates, triggering the formation of volcanic island arcs. This is also tectonically the most active area in the world, with volcanic eruptions and earthquakes being regular occurrences, and every now and then there are devastating tsunamis as well.
Despite these circumstances, there a lot of people living on the Ring of Fire. In fact, there is a high density of populations living in it, with Japan, Indonesia, the Philippines, all being good examples for it. The reasons why people live there though are because the subduction zones, almost always, tend to create places that are excellent for seaports, thus trade. Also, the soil tends to be of very high quality because of the volcanic ash, so people are able to produce goods on a large-scale without any expenses for fertilizers, and in many cases chemicals as well.

In the past the inhabitants of dry lands learned to respond flexibly to climate variations. Explain how they did this in two sentences.
Answer:
In dry lands, there is a very small amount of precipitation compared to other climates, so inhabitants of dry lands in the past needed to conserve water. They did so by watering their crops with irrigation ditches, as well as constructing their homes out of adobe (clay) instead of wood.
Hope this helps! Feel free to give me Brainliest if you feel this helped. Have a good day, and good luck on your assignment. :)

The ____ in Eastern Europe have become a region of interest because of their market economic.
A. United kingdom
B. Scandinavian countries
C. Baltic state
Answer:
The Baltic states in Eastern Europe have become a region of interest because of their market economy.
Explanation:
The Baltic states, all three of them, were part of the Soviet Union. When they gained independence, they were the first to quickly move and make big steps to transform their societies to democracies and to have market economies. This was done because they despised the system in which they forcefully were included, but also to become as close as possible to the Western World.
All three, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, managed to develop quickly and as planned, and they were soon on the radar of the Western countries as places for investment and trade. Also, seening the progress that they make and willingness to move away and secure themselves from Russia, the European Union and NATO all made these three states their members, aiding big strategic advancement for these organization, and safety and prosperty for the Baltic states.

Stark political divisions in a country where one political party is most popular in the rural areas while another is more popular in urban and suburban areas would have what effect on the country? A. centrifugal B. centripetal C. colonial D. devolution
Answer:
This will have a centrifugal effect on a country.
Explanation:
If we have a situation where a country's population is divided because of political views, with people from rural areas supporting one, and people from urban and suburban areas supporting another one, the country will most probably experience a centrifugal effect. The centrifugal effect is a negative effect for a country because it causes division and potential break up.
In this case, it is not just that people vote for two different political parties, but the problem is that the voting is related to particular groups of people with different types of lifestyles and views in life. This always tends to cause problems, often starting with fierce debates and protests, but occasionally ending up with violence and separatism.

Answer:When oceanic or continental plates slide past each other in opposite directions, or move in the same direction but at different speeds, a transform fault boundary is formed. No new crust is created or subducted, and no volcanoes form, but earthquakes occur along the fault. The transform fault boundaries connect spreading centers and subduction zones, which are the other elements of the jigsaw puzzle of the Earth’s plates.

How did the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War alter the map of
Eastern Europe and Central Asia? What potential problems could emerge as a result of these alterations?
Answer:
The collapse of the Soviet Union resulted in the creation of multiple new countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. A potential problem of this was the rise of nationalism and expansionism.
Explanation:
The Soviet Union, even though heavily centralized, was actually a federation of numerous states, with Russia being the absolute owner of power in it. As the Soviet Union started to fall apart, multiple of these federal states managed to gain independence, thus changing the map of Eastern Europe and Central Asia by creating numerous new political entities.
wOne problem that was a potential problem, developed, but still haven't made a big problem was the rise of nationalism and expansionist politics. Many countries wanted to have territory that belonged to other countries because they thought that it belongs to them traditionally. Luckily, most of these tensions have been sorted out diplomatically, with the only incidents occurring in Central Asia, mostly because of Uzbek aggression toward Tajik and Kyrgyz populations.
