What are fault boundaries?
Fault boundaries are the places where two tectonic plates (sections of the earth's crust) meet. Because of the movement of the plates against one another, fault boundaries are the locations where most earthquakes occur.
Why are there places on earth that experience polar days and polar nights?
i think because of the Earth's elliptical orbit, less sunlight reaches these places at the aphelion. =)
What type of plate boundary produces strong earthquakes?
Any type of plate boundary can cause an earthquake. That said, areas along convergent, divergent, and transform tectonic plate boundaries are the most likely places for earthquakes to occur.
What shop can you buy top trumps?
You can buy them from places like RSMcolls and WhSmiths
What is the purpose of a political map?
The purpose of a political boundary map is to show the boundaries that separate countries throughout the world, as well as the states or provinces within them; giving you insight on the location of different places and their relativity to other locations.
Not all places on the earth receive the same amount of direct sunlight because of?
the tilt of the earths axis
Why don't all places on the earth receive the same amount of direct sunlight?
because, the world is round
Why do the north and south poles stay cool all year round?
These places receive the least direct sunlight out of all the places of the Earth.
Are the places on earth that receive the most direct sun the warmest?
Yes, that's exactly how it works. The more direct the angle of the sunlight (which is to say, the closer that angle is to being perpendicular to the surface) the more warmth will result.
Are all places along the equater warm Why or why not?
cause it gets direct sunlight
Where are the best places to use solar panels?
on hills exposed to direct sunlight.
What are warm places?
Places the are always warm are the ones near or on the equator due to the fact that this region gets the most direct sunlight.
What places are always warm?
Places the are always warm are the ones near or on the equator due to the fact that this region gets the most direct sunlight.
Are all places among the equator very warm and why?
Because of the Earth's positioning and tilt on its axis, the places on equator receive much sunlight, hence hotter, although not longest amount of time with sunlight.
Does all flowering plants grow in shady places?
Nope. Plenty of plants need direct sunlight for most of the day to flower.
Why does intensity of sunlight affect weather?
Sunlight is a kind of fuel for thunderstorms. The warm air causes an updraft when it collides with cold air. Also, sunlight intensity affects the temperature. That is why the temperatures at the equator are usually high because the places near the equator get direct sunlight.
What is the amount of sunlight in freshwater biomes?
The amount of sunlight that can be found in a freshwater biome varies. Some of these biomes receive more sunlight than others.
