Ports in the Arctic Ocean can be used year-round to ship goods from Siberia to western Russia.
T or F.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The Northern Sea Route, Sevigny Morskoy put, shortened to Севморпуть, Sevmorput) is a shipping route officially defined by Russian legislation as lying east of Novaya Zemlya and specifically running along the Russian Arctic coast from the Kara Sea, along Siberia, to the Bering Strait. The entire route lies in Arctic waters and within Russia's exclusive economic zone (EEZ). Parts are free of ice for only two months per year. The overall route on Russia's side of the Arctic between North Cape and the Bering Strait has been called the Northeast Passage, analogous to the Northwest Passage on the Canada side.
While the Northeast Passage includes all the East Arctic seas and connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Northern Sea Route does not include the Barents Sea, and it therefore does not reach the Atlantic.
Melting Arctic ice caps are likely to increase traffic in and the commercial viability of the Northern Sea Route. One study, for instance, projects "remarkable shifts in trade flows between Asia and Europe, diversion of trade within Europe, heavy shipping traffic in the Arctic and a substantial drop in Suez traffic. Projected shifts in trade also imply substantial pressure on an already threatened Arctic ecosystem.

Find out about the countries where some areas record the maximum incidents of floods during the rainy season and also experience droughts frequently in the samearea.How will you explain this paradox.
Answer:
Many east and south asian nation record maximum incident of floods and drought conditions.
Explanation:
There are many nations in the world that experience floods and droughts such as India, China, and Bangladesh, and many Southeast Asian nations. This is due to the effects of nearness to the equator or tropics that generally have high pressure that develops into humidity and dry conditions prevailing during the summers and they also experience flood every year.Which of the following energy sources is not an example of renewable energy?
A. a wind turbine farm
B. a clean-burning, coal-fired electric plant
C. a hydroelectric dam
D. a solar panel mounted on a home
Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B
C
D
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Coal is a non-renewable resource.
Answer:
B is the answer
Explanation:
Hydropower uses a fuel—water—that is not reduced or used up in the process. Because the water cycle is an endless, constantly recharging system, hydropower is considered a renewable energy.
Solar energy is a renewable free source of energy that is sustainable and totally inexhaustible, unlike fossil fuels that are finite. It is also a non-polluting source of energy and it does not emit any greenhouse gases when producing electricity.
Wind is a renewable energy source. Overall, using wind to produce energy has fewer effects on the environment than many other energy sources. Wind turbines do not release emissions that can pollute the air or water (with rare exceptions), and they do not require water for cooling.

Explanation:
Washington State is divided by a mountain range called the Cascades. On the west side of the mountains, the weather is fairly cool and rainy for most of the year. On the east side of the mountain, the weather is much drier which factor is most likely responsible for the difference in climate between the two sides of the mountain in Washington
A. The gulf Stream, a warm current in the Atlantic Ocean
B. Westerlies global winds that blow west to east
C. A high-pressure belt at around 30ºN latitude
C. A low-pressure belt at around 60ºN latitude
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Through the process of elimination, It's not A because Washington State does not border the Atlantic, and Washington state is not on the 30 or 60 Latitude lines.
Westerlies, global winds that blow west to east, are most likely responsible for the difference in climate between the two regions of the mountain in Washington.
What is Westerlies?The westerlies are predominant winds that flow from west to east around 30 and 60 degrees latitude and are also referred as anti-trades or predominant westerlies.
They form in high-pressure areas near the poles, travel towards the poles, and direct extratropical cyclones in that direction.
Thus, option B is correct.

The Dead Sea, which lies between Jordan and Israel, is one of the saltiest lakes on Earth. Suppose you are a geologist exploring the area. What geological factors would you expect to see that might explain this salinity
Answer:
- Lack of outlets for water to escape and relatively impermeable soil at the bottom of the lake.
Explanation:
Salinity is characterized as the 'quality of being salty or containing salt in a solution.' The geological factors that might assist in elaborating the salinity of The Dead Sea would include 'the absence of outlets allowing water to escape and comparatively resistant soil at the core of the lake.' It will help in explaining the high concentration of salt at the bottom of the sea which makes it one of the saltiest water bodies across the globe.
Due to the lack of water holding capacity of the soil and high temperature the region has a higher salinity. The higher rate of evaporation and dryness of the region makes the sea saline.
Unable to allow water to escape nd having no outlet is one of the major reason for salinity.Learn more about the which lies between.
