Answer:
Most of Latin America is located in a Tropical zone that receives the Sun's direct rays yearly.
Explanation:
Latin America, as a region, has almost exclusively tropical types of climates, with Truly Cold climates lacking from the region. The closest that climates get to truly cold types are the highest parts of the Andes and the southernmost part of the region in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, but none of them have polar-type characteristics all year round.
This climate situation in Latin America is due to its position relative to the Equator. The Equator passes through the widest part of the region, and the vast majority of the territory north and south falls into the tropical realm, and this is also helped by the fact that north and south of the Equator the territory shrinks and the influence of the ocean is greater. The majority of the region has a tropical wet climate, savanna-like grasslands, and tropical deserts.
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.

What causes the Subsistence farmers of Latin America to use Slash and Burn Agriculture?
What caused the Inca to create Terraces?
What caused the Aztec to create Chinampas?
Answer:
The slash and burn agriculture is used because of lack of development and bad treatement of the soil.
The Incan terraces were created so that the steep slopes can be used for agriculture.
The Aztec chinampas were created to maximize production by using the surface of the water as a basis because of the huge demand and limited resources.
Explanation:
In multiple parts of Latin America, the people use slash and burn techniques for agriculture. This technique consists of cutting down and burning the vegetation in order to open up space for agriculture. This is done in countries that are not well developed, so nature is not taken into consideration, nor the agricultural land is treated properly so it quickly becomes useless.
The Incas were people with big ingenuity, and this was also seen in their agricultural practices. They predominantly lived in high mountainous areas with very steep slopes, but that didn't stop. In order to make use of the terrain and satisfy the demand for food, the Incas carved the steep slopes horizontally and made terraces, on which they were able to produce a lot of food.
The Aztecs lived in an area that had a very high population density, so the demand for food was very big, but the land and fertile soil were limited. In order to solve the problem, they came up with the chinampas. The chinampas were basically made up of floating gardens, small and easy, filled with fertile soil, and having access to water all the time because they were on the surface of a lake. The production levels were very high with this technique.

The presence of American fast food restaurants in Russia offers evidence that the former Soviet Union is?
The answer is: influenced by the consumer culture of the
West.
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.

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.
