Continents

The most urbanized continent is North America, with over 80% of its population living in urban areas. The least urbanized continent is Antarctica, where there are no permanent residents and essentially no urban areas.

North America ends at the southern border of Mexico with Guatemala and Belize; South America starts at the border of Panama with Colombia.

Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama are considered Central America, although they can be considered as part of North America. When they are, the border between the continents is the Panama-Colombia border.

Although the Panama Canal is technically the water link that divides the continents, it is entirely within Panama, which would be Central or North America.

China has the largest population of any country in the world, followed closely by India. {This information is good as of February, 2009.}

The destruction of large areas of tropical rainforest can lead to a loss of biodiversity, increase carbon emissions, disrupt weather patterns, and impact global climate change. It can also affect indigenous communities that depend on the forest for their livelihoods, as well as reduce the availability of important medicinal plants and resources.

Africa is the continent crossed by both the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The Tropic of Cancer passes through northern Africa, while the Tropic of Capricorn passes through the southern part of the continent.

The two continents with the largest earthworms are Europe and North America.

cratons. These cratons are stable, ancient regions of the Earth's crust that hold some of the oldest rocks on the planet. They are often found in the interiors of continents like in Africa, Australia, and North America.

Yes. The Tropic of Cancer (approximately 23.5° N latitude) crosses Asia in the countries of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar (Burma), China, and Taiwan.

Because Canada is in North America. The same 24 time zones extend from the North to South Poles. If you are directly north or south of another place, you will be in the same time zone although it may not be the same time on the clock because someplaces observe daylight savings time at different times of the year.

The question is asked backwards. Japan is a country of the Asian continent (Asia). No continents "belong" to Japan.

The Arctic Archipelago of Nunavut, Canada is the closest cape to the North Pole. Cape Columbia on Ellesmere Island is the northernmost point of land in Canada and is just 769 km (478 miles) from the North Pole.

The Mayan Temple of Inscriptions is located in the country of Mexico, which is part of North America. Specifically, the temple is situated in the ancient Mayan city of Palenque in the southern state of Chiapas.

Many lands were underwater when others were rising from the sea. Islands and lands begin underwater and some lands are more recent. For example, the coast of Australia's rocks are younger than the rocks in the centre of Australia.

all continets used to be conected called Pangaea so on the edge of one continet there may be something of the same on the opposite or parallel continet look at a picture of south America and i think Asia or russia and there will be a tiny space where it seems they used to be conected

Turkey is a country that spans both Europe and Asia, however, the majority of Turkey lies in Asia.

Gondwana land no longer exists. It has to do with the theory of tectonic plates. At one time the continents of Africa, South America, Australia, Antarctica, the sub continent of India, and the Island of New Zealand one body of land. That piece of land split apart and became the pieces of land they are today.

The animals and plants on that piece of land explain the close connection between many of the creatures that exist on those separated pieces and why those pieces of land can fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. For example, the flightless Ostrich of Africa is closely related to the Rhea of South America. Both are closely related to the Kiwi of New Zealand.

Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, is located on the continent of North America.

Pangaea broke into Gondwanaland and Laurasia.

First of all to correct your spelling. of 'What is the continet of Austraillia?'

It should read 'What is the continent of Australia?'

The word 'Australia' comes from Latin and means 'South/Southern'.

Casually Australia is both an continent and a nation.

As continent it is a tectonic plate which has detached from Antarctica and is moving North/North Eastwards, into the Eastern part of Indonesia. The mountains in Papua New Guinea (PNG) are the northern plate boundary. They are being 'pushed up' as a result of the Australian plate moving north into the Indonesian plates.

As a nation it's formal title is 'The Commonwealth of Australia'. The capital city is 'Canberra' ; NEITHER Sydney nor Melbourne. It is a western style constitutional monarchy. King Charles(III) of the UK is the Head of State. There are some 20 million people in the country. The nation is divided into states and territories. viz. Australian Capital Territory(ACT), New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia , and Tasmania. The principle territory is the Northern Territory (North Australia), also Norfolk Island , and Nauru. .

Alaska is the only state of the USA that borders the Arctic ocean. Several other countries border it. Technically, they all border the southern edge of the Arctic Ocean, since the North of it would be the North Pole.

# Antarctica # Asia # Australia # North America # South America

1. Pangaea

1. Asia (43,820,000 km2)

2. Africa (30,370,000 km2)

3. North America (24,490,000 km2)

However, there are other rankings based on if you include North and South America as one continent (America) and Africa, Europe, and Asia as one (Afro-Eurasia). In which case, the rankings would be:

1. Afro-Eurasia (84,370,000 km2)

2. America (42,330,000 km2)

3. Antarctica (13,720,000 km2)

Ferns and their fossil remains have been found on every continent

Anti-continents refer to large areas of land that existed in the geological past but are now submerged under the ocean. These landmasses were part of the supercontinents that have been breaking apart and drifting over millions of years due to plate tectonics. Examples include Zealandia and the Kerguelen Plateau.

No, Zambia does not experience snow. It has a tropical climate with distinct wet and dry seasons. Snowfall is extremely rare in tropical climates due to the warm temperatures.
