What is the size of west Africa?
East Africa is a relative geographic term and as such is interpreted differently by different sources.
Wikipedia defines it as: "East Africa is often used to specifically refer to the area now comprising the countries of Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda and, in a wider sense, also Burundi, Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Sudan, and Somalia (including the self-declared republic of Somaliland"
As such the question can be answered as follows:
Kenya - 582,650 km2
Tanzania - 945,087 km2
Uganda - 236,040 km2
Burundi - 27,830 km2
Djibouti - 23,000 km2
Eritrea - 121,320 km2
Ethiopia - 1,127,127 km2
Rwanda - 26,338 km2
Sudan - 2,505,810 km2
Somalia - 637,657 km2
A total of : 6,232,859 km2 or 2,406,520 miles2
What is characteristic of Harry Potter?
I assume you are talking about unusual characteristics he has in the book. Well, one of them (and the main one) is that he defeated Lord Voldemort, aka You-Know-Who or He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, when he was just a baby, and he also was the 1st and so far only wizard (only living being in fact!) to survive the Avada Kedevra curse. Harry Potter has quite a few different unusual chacracteristics and I just listed two of them.
Is 60 years old to old to fight in the ufc?
In a lower MMA promotion, you could. If you are starting out in MMA, it could take you more than 5 years to build up a record decent enough to get too the UFC, so it may be best to not, or to try at less popular mma promotions
Intercourse between male and female. Depends on the age, month, date, and time.
What are the four levels of the rain forest?
All forests have the same levels:
1. The Canopy
2.The Understory
3.The Herb Layer or Underbrush
4. The Floor
You don't usually have to use this too but the fifth layer is called the sub-floor.
What are similarities between baboons and chimpanzees?
both monkeys and apes have fur on their bodies and are the first stages of human kind. Apes do not have tails but monkeys do.
Because they have a backbone which determines that it is a vertebrate
What is the similarity between frog and human teeth?
The elephant's tusks are overdeveloped incisor teeth.
Apes come in many different heights depending on the species.
The tallest of apes (other than humans) is the male adult gorilla - average height 1.7 to 1.8 m (5.6 to 5.9 ft). Male adult oranguatan are about the same heights, but slightly less heavy.
Where did Jane Goodall's research in Africa?
Jane started a Research Centre in Tanzania. She also lived with her friend the one that invited her to Tanzania. The Research Centre was all about Chimpanzees. She worked there until she had her baby but still went there.
Why does the NFL have so many so many black guys?
So many Black guys are good at football. For so many people living in the inner city, sports may be seen as a final hope. So they develop fierce determination that people in better circumstances don't often develop. They may determine that they will become successful and help their relatives and community.
Choice is non-existent in the former, but alive and well in the latter.
How did humans evolve from chimpanzees?
Today, evolutionists insist that the underlying similarity of all animals, including man, and our ability to arrange and classify them into groups, is compelling evidence for their progressive evolution from a common ancestor. They insist that there is simply no other thinkable explanation for their similarities. Evolutionists argue further that the degree of similarity between any two animals attests to their degree of evolutionary "relatedness," and thus how recently they separated from a common ancestor. They are quite certain, for example, that the similarities between apes and humans prove they evolved from a common ape-like ancestor "only" 2 or 3 million years ago. Perhaps you heard the story of the evolutionist who dug up a fossilized fragment of an ape's jaw and promptly declared it to be an ancestor of man -- he was so excited about the find he said, "I wouldn't have seen it if I hadn't believed it." http://www.gennet.org/facts/metro05.html Since evolutionists generally do not believe that man evolved from any ape that is now living, they look to extinct apes in the fossil record to provide them with their desired evidence. Specifically, they look for any anatomical feature that looks "intermediate" between that of apes and man. Fossil apes having such features are declared to be ancestral to man (or at least collateral relatives) and are called hominids. Living apes, on the other hand, are not considered to be "hominids" they only sort of look like humans. Still, evolutionists are willing to accept certain trivial similarities between extinct apes and men as "proof" of ancestry. The most eagerly sought after evidence in fossil "hominids" is any anatomical feature that suggests bipedality (the ability to walk on two legs). http://www.gennet.org/facts/metro19.html The "missing links" are missing. And unfortunately, the field of paleoanthropology has been riddled with fraudulent claims of finding the missing link between humans and primates, to the extent that fragments of human skeletons have been combined with other species such as pigs and apes and passed off as legitimate. The modern theory concerning the evolution of man proposes that humans and apes derive from an apelike ancestor that lived on earth a few million years ago. The theory states that man, through a combination of environmental and genetic factors, emerged as a species to produce the variety of ethnicities seen today, while modern apes evolved on a separate evolutionary pathway. Overall, the evolution of man pervades as the accepted paradigm on the origin of man within the scientific community. This is not because it has been proven scientifically, but because alternative viewpoints bring with them metaphysical implications which go against the modern naturalistic paradigm. Nevertheless, a closer examination of the evidence reveals evolution to be increasingly less scientific and more reliant upon beliefs, not proof. http://www.allaboutscience.org/evolution-of-man.htm
Another Answer:
Man did not evolve from apes but from a common ancestor that evolved not only into apes but also into man. Ken Miller, who in a court of law, helped defeat Intelligent Design teaching proposals in schools, best explains in his website at http://www.millerandlevine.com/km/evol/. Genetics proves humans and apes share a common ancestor.
Yes, our official scientific name is Homo Sapiens. We are sapiens of the Homo genus.
Yes, according to Binomial nomenclature, humans are Homo sapiens. In the past there were humans who weren't Homo sapiens. They belonged to other species in genus Homo. Their gradual evolution led to Homo sapiens, that is us.
What were the major kinds of Indian Cultures in North America before 1500?
Before 1500 there were several different kinds of Native American cultures in North America. There were farmers, fisher cultures, and hunter gatherers.
What are the characteristics of a scientist?
2. Explorative - They employ the scientific approach in exploring a problem and design experiments to test their theories.
3. Persistent
4. Creative - To solve a problem, they often have to be creative in uncharted territory especially in astronomy and physics.
5. Analytical - They observe what is happening and analyze the problem to come up with solutions.
Scientists differ from engineers in that scientists can work in the theoretical realm, while engineers are applied scientists in that they have to apply the principles of physics and math to solve daily problems. So they might work together as a team lead by the scientist to carry out an experiment for example.
Who was the first lady in space?
Russia
Russian (Soviet). The Russian sent a woman into space in the 1960's. The USA was planning to send a woman into space in the 1960's, but, did not do so, because President LBJ ordered NASA not to. The USA would not send a woman into space until the 1980's.

What did Thomas Paine predict would happen if Americans gave up their struggle for independence?
Paine predicts that Britain will tax the Americans heavily and what Thomas Paine also states; "to BIND us [American colonists] in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER."
Britain has a large lack in respect towards America and Paine believes that some Americans do not see the evil in Britain and have hopes that the enemy (Britain) will be merciful.
They offered Chimpanzees. True fact they are very popular with monkeys. Pootis is a monkey they named. POOTIS
