The question is incomplete, the complete question is; Palm oil, an edible vegetable oil used in processing packaged food products, is obtained from the fruit of the oil palm tree, grown only in the tropics. Which of the following explains how global
demand for palm oil has proved beneficial and detrimental for countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia?
Palm oil exports provided substantial corporate profits, but increased government subsidies to palm oil farmers led to increased overty in the two countries.
Palm oil exports provided substantial corporate profits, but the process led to high rates of unemployment for farmworkers at harvest time.
C) Palm oil exports provided substantial corporate profits, but the growth in the industry resulted in heavy deforestation in both countries.
Palm oil exports provided increased income to the governments of Indonesia and Malaysia, but the number of farmers employed on palm oil plantations decreased in the two
countries
E) Palm oil exports aided in increasing the wealth of the two countries but also increased the diversity of plants in the two countries.
Answer:
C) Palm oil exports provided substantial corporate profits, but the growth in the industry resulted in heavy deforestation in both countries.
Explanation:
Oil palm, includes the palm species native to Africa, Elaeis guineensis, and the species native to South and Central America, Elaeis oleifera. Both species are perennial tropical trees in the family Arecaceae which are grown for their oil which is used in cooking and in industry(Plant village).
The production of palm oil has led to deforestation both in Indonesia and Malaysia. Large expanse of forest lands had to be cleared in order to carve out enough land mass for oil palm plantations.
Obviously, the growth of the oil palm industry led to some corporate benefits at the cost of the loss of habitat of several forest species.

Answer:
The League of Nations was established in 1919.
The aim was to keep world peace and to ensure security.
At its largest there were 58 countries involved with the LoN.
The League of Nations failed as there had to be unanimity for decisions. Unanimity made it really hard for the League to do anything. The League suffered big time from the absence of major powers — Germany, Japan, Italy ultimately left — and the lack of U.S. participation. They also had no army so that meant that when countries were trying to annex one another the League couldn't protect the land.
Lower salinity increases the conductivity of sea water.
Answer:
Results indicate that both seawater salinity and pressure increase while seawater temperature decreases with depth in the vicinity of the minimum seawater conductivity. Increasing salinity and pressure can increase the seawater conductivity, while decreasing the temperature has the opposite effect.

A quadrilateral has a perimeter of 207 units and one side measures 36 units. The lengths of the other three sides are in the ratio of 5:6:8. Find the lengths of the three missing sides.
Answer:
45, 54, 72
Explanation:
In this case, a quadrilateral is like a square, with 4 sides but it's sides are longer than a square.
The perimeter of any geometrical figure is the sum of all the side's lenght, so, if we have the perimeter and the value of one side, we can deduce the lenght of the other sides because we have a data of the ratio. Let's first see how much is left on the missing sides.
P = a + b + c + d
207 = 36 + b + c + d
171 = a + b + c
This means that the sum of the other 3 sides is 171. We know that the ratio of those sides is 5:6:8, so the sum of these sides can be written like this, in function of those ratios:
171 = 5x + 6x + 8x
171 = 19x
x = 9
With this number we can now calculate the sides of the quadrilateral:
a = 5x = 5 * 9 = 45
b = 6x = 6 * 9 = 54
c = 8x = 8 * 9 = 72
Therefore the missing sides's lenght are:

Corals are schedule 1 species under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, meaning corals have the same protection as that of a tiger or a leopard. ... “The collection of these species, dead or alive, is completely banned under Indian laws. They can neither be exported nor imported.
Explanation:
I hope this helps and pls mark me brainliest :)
Answer:
Coral reefs are invaluable resources to local communities around the world, serving as sources of food, jobs and livelihoods, and as coastal protection. ... Many countries have banned coral mining, such as Sri Lanka and Indonesia, but due to lack of enforcement, the practice continues.
Suppose that you were asked to compare rates of sediment erosion on two land surfaces: a steep, forested mountain slope; and a flat, grassy plain. Which of the following statements about erosion rates at the two locations is correct?
a. Erosion is greater on a flat plain because the gentler slopes
b. Erosion is less because the mountain is covered by a thick layer of clay
c. erosion is less on the mountain because of the abundant rainfall
d. Erosion is greater on the mountain slope because the higher water velocities
Answer: d. Erosion is greater on the mountain slope because the higher water velocities
Explanation:
The erosion can be defined as the loss of fertile top layer of the soil due to the action of physical agents like water, wind, and others. The mountain slope will offer less resistance against the movement of the materials like soil, sediments, pebbles, stones, and others down the slope. The water will also flow at higher velocity without any resistance on the mountain slope and it will erode the top layer of soil along with other materials like sediments, pebbles, stones, and others.
What are two characteristics of the Earth’s thermosphere?
Answer:
The thermosphere is very high above the Earth and is distinguished by an increase in temperature with altitude. The density of the air is extremely low, but the activity of the molecules are very high due to the amount of energy they are receiving from the sun. Individual molecules can be as warm as 2000 degrees C.

Answer:
Evacuation in the Soviet Union was the mass migration of western Soviet citizens and its industries eastward as a result of Operation Barbarossa, the German military invasion of June 1941. Nearly sixteen million Soviet civilians and over 1,500 large factories were moved to areas in the middle or eastern part of the country by the end of 1941.[1] Along with the eastern exodus of civilians and industries, other unintended consequences of the German advances saw the execution of previously held western state civilians by Soviet NKVD units,[citation needed] the removal of Lenin's body from Moscow to Tyumen, and the relocation of the Hermitage Museum collection to Sverdlovsk, Kuybyshev, the alternative capital of the Soviet Union 1941-1943. Soviet towns and cities inland or in the east received the bulk of the new refugees and high priority war factories, as locations such as the Siberian city of Novosibirsk, received more than 140,000 refugees and many factories due to its location away from the front lines. Despite early German successes in seizing control of large swaths of the western USSR throughout 1943, and semi-prepared contingency plans by the Soviets in their mobilization plans to the east, Soviet industries would eventually outpace the Germans in arms production, culminating in 73,000 tanks, 82,000 aircraft and nearly 324,000 artillery pieces being dispersed throughout the Red Army in their fight against the Axis Powers by 1945.[2]

Determine which type of segments are in the picture below. Based on the properties above, explain how to solve for x. Give as much detail as possible
Answer/Explanation:
The type of segments given in the picture are called secants.
The two secants meet at a point (A) outside the circle.
✅Thus, based on the secant -secant theorem:
AB*BC = AD*DE
AB = 4
BC = 8
AD = 3
DE = x
Plug in the values
4*8 = 3*x
32 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
32/3 = x
10.67 = x
x = 10.67
what is ghe difference between insulation and terrestrial radiation
Answer:
Insolation is the amount of solar radiation that reaches the earth's surface through shortwaves. The earth also radiates heat energy like all other hot object. This is known as terrestrial radiation. The annual mean temperature on the surface of the earth is always constant.
Explanation:
The energy emitted by the sun is known as solar radiation. The incoming solar radiation to the earth is known as insolation. Radiation from the earth is called terrestrial radiation.
Answer:
Solar radiation is all the radiant energy emitted by the sun. Solar irradiance is the power per unit area received from the Sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation measured in space or at the Earth's surface. Isolation is the total solar radiation that reaches the earth's surface.
