Tornado Alley typically includes parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. However, tornadoes can occur outside of Tornado Alley, as seen in Alabama and Georgia in 2017. Tornadoes can form anywhere under the right atmospheric conditions, not just in designated tornado-prone regions.
distinctive physical characteristics such as landforms, vegetation types, climate, and geological features. These elements combine to create unique landscapes that can be differentiated from one another.

The Darling River flows in a southwesterly direction from southern Queensland through western New South Wales into the Murray River.
I'm unable to show maps as I'm a text-based assistant. However, you can explore various map platforms like Google Maps or platforms specific to the environments you're interested in, such as national park maps for natural environments or urban planning maps for city environments.
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles, meaning all angles are 90 degrees. Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length and parallel.
The Earth always rotates from west to east, which means the direction of rotation is eastward. This rotation gives us day and night as different parts of the Earth face the Sun.
The northern hemisphere has more land area compared to the southern hemisphere. About 68.3% of the Earth's land area is located in the northern hemisphere.
Georgia has a length of approximately 320 miles and a width of around 230 miles.
The Western Hemisphere includes North America and South America.
An isthmus is a body of land surrounded by water on three sides.
Fish can swim due to an inherited behavior. They are born with the instinct and physical adaptations that allow them to swim efficiently from birth. While they may fine-tune their swimming skills as they grow, the ability to swim is primarily genetic.
Slumps most commonly occur in areas with steep slopes, such as hillsides or mountainsides, especially where the underlying soil or rock is prone to erosion or instability. They can also occur in coastal areas where wave action undermines the base of cliffs or bluffs.
Extinction is the process of gradually reducing a behavior by no longer reinforcing it, leading to the behavior eventually ceasing. Intermittent reinforcement involves reinforcing a behavior only sometimes, which can be more resistant to extinction compared to behaviors that are consistently reinforced.
Each mineral is unique based on its chemical composition and crystal structure. These characteristics determine the mineral's physical properties such as color, hardness, cleavage, and luster. Additionally, each mineral forms under specific conditions, giving it distinct features that differentiate it from other minerals.
Breast development typically occurs in five stages: 1) the "budding" stage, where the nipples and areolas start to protrude; 2) the appearance of breast "buds," which indicate the beginning of breast development; 3) further development with the growth of breast tissue; 4) continued growth and development, with the nipple and areola becoming raised and forming a second curve above the breast tissue; and 5) the mature stage where breasts have reached their final size and shape.
An example of innate behavior is a newborn baby instinctively rooting for its mother's breast for feeding. This behavior is not learned, but rather it is a natural, instinctual response that helps ensure the baby's survival.
Michel Foucault is a key figure who uses deconstruction to analyze how power dynamics within cultures shape truths and meanings. He explores how societal institutions like government, education, and media influence what is considered "true" or "meaningful" in a given society.
Hair growth occurs in three main stages: anagen (active growth phase lasting 2-7 years), catagen (transitional phase lasting 2-3 weeks), and telogen (resting phase lasting 2-4 months). During anagen, the hair follicles are actively producing hair; in catagen, hair growth stops and the follicles shrink; and in telogen, old hairs are shed to make way for new growth.
The concept of a spherical Earth dates back to ancient Greek scholars, around the 6th century BC. Philosophers like Pythagoras and later Aristotle provided evidence for a round Earth through observations of celestial bodies and the shape of Earth's shadow during lunar eclipses.
The idea of individualism emphasizes the importance of personal freedom, self-reliance, and independence. It promotes the rights and worth of the individual over the collective group or society. Individualism values individual rights, creativity, and self-expression.
Reasoning alone can lead to understanding certain truths about the world, like logical principles and mathematical theorems. However, empirical observations and scientific methods are crucial for uncovering many truths about the natural world, especially in fields like physics and biology. There are limits to what we can discover through reason alone, as some truths may only be accessible through empirical evidence and experimentation.
There are seven stages of plant growth. The first stage is pollination - where bees carry the pollen from one plant to another plant. The second stage is seed formation - when the seeds begin to grow, sometimes inside of a fruit like an apple, and sometimes in a flower, like a sunflower. The third stage is seed dispersal - where the seeds are spread out by animals, wind, and water. Germination is the fourth stage, the stage where the plant sprouts from the seed. The fifth stage is growth - when the plant grows from a small sprout into a bigger plant, like a tree. And then the cycle begins again.
Two important characteristics of gemstones are their hardness, which determines how well they can resist scratching or abrasion, and their brilliance, which is the way they interact with light to create brightness and sparkle.
