make a study of a mountain of your choice ,all the relevant information about such a mountain should be added to your write up
Answer:
The mountain I chose is Aconcagua, in Argentina.
Explanation:
Aconcagua is a mountain located in the province of Mendoza, Argentina, belonging to the Cordillera de los Andes system. With an altitude of 6,961 meters, it is the highest mountain in America and the highest on Earth if the mountains that make up the Himalayan system are not considered.
Its altitude, added to its location at the gateway to Patagonia, makes this mountain have a cold climate, with eternal snow and a large number of glaciers.
In addition, this mountain is used by a large number of athletes to be climbed, given its relative ease thanks to its not too steep or sloping relief.

Today, coral reefs cover approximately 284,300 square kilometers, Corals depend on calcium carbonate to build their
skeletons. Some scientists predict that by 2050, only 15% of coral reefs will have sufficient levels of calcium carbonate
required for growth. By these estimates, how many square kilometers of coral reefs will be damaged by low calcium
carbonate levels? Show your calculations,
Answer: 241,655 km²
Explanation:
If only 15% will have sufficient levels of calcium carbonate, that means that 85% will be damaged by low levels of calcium carbonate by 2050.
Currently there are 284,300 km² of coral reefs.
If 85% are damaged, that would translate to:
= 284,300 * 85%
= 241,655 km²
Answer: 241,655 sq. km
Explanation:
100 – 15 = 85 Multiply the area of the coral reefs by 85%: 284,300 sq. km × 0.85 = 241,655 sq. km
