There is a huge variety of fruits and vegetables - apples, oranges, melons, citrus, tropical, pears, potatoes, onions, salad vegetables, carrots, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes - anything you can imagine.

Corn is an increasingly popular food crop, as is rice, believe it or not.

Why do the temperatures vary so much in Australia?

Because it's so big.

It's not just wide but also long too so it covers many latitudes. Because of the angle of the sun different latitudes get more or less sun than others and are hotter or colder than others. Because Australia is long and covers many latitudes it has many temperature differences.

Then there is terrain. Australia is one big island (well the mainland anyway) so we have coastal weather, rain, wind and the like. But we also have a huge mountain range running down the edge of the east coast of Australia which catches a lot of the rain clouds so that they can't get inland. Therefore a lot of inland Australia is desert and with no rain to help grass and plants grow and no cloud cover to hold in the daytime heat the desert is scorching during the day and freezing at night (like most deserts). We also have high mountains which mean they get snow or at least very cold when low lying areas are not so cold just because of their altitude.

And I'm sure a meteorologist could explain it even better then me.

Can a 18yr old male leave home without permission in Alabama?

This is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as such. Consult the specific laws for the state and county in which you reside for the rules that apply. In most states, any 18 year old is considered an adult and is capable of deciding when and where they reside. They have the ability to contract for housing. SOME states allow minors to become emancipated under specific circumstances, but this is not just a matter of filling out some paperwork. A minor is the responsibility of their parents until such time as they reach the age of majority or are legally emancipated. The parents are required to provide for the support of their minor children. If the parents give permission, the minor can live in another location. Such permission does not relieve the parents of the responsibility to provide support. If the parents do not give permission, the minor can be considered a runaway. Charges may apply to individuals that aid and abet such runaways, particularly if they are under the age of consent. In some states it is my understanding that this is not enforced for 17 year olds that leave home. If you are subject to abuse, you should contact social services for your area. They will assist you in getting out of the bad environment and into a safe place.

Why was the fall of Singapore so important for Australia?

Australia, having been part of the British Empire had soldiers, if only a small amount, garrisoned in Singapore. When Singapore fell 85000 prisoners were taken, British and Australian.

Australia were now underthreat as one of the reasons for Singapore to be taken was to get an advantage over Australia. Australia's main force was in Europe and Australia's main line of defense was destroyed. This lead to Australia looking to America as its "chief defender" of sorts, instead of its traditional defender, Great Britain.

The loss of "The Gem of the British Navy" played a major part for the change in heart of Australia, the 'failure' of Britain. Where as America appeared to be regathering itself and had not lost the more important features of its Navy, unlike Britain.
