5. As Islam spread to Sub-Saharan Africa by the 9th
century, wealthy elites became the first local
adherents, but ordinary people only converted slowly
if at all from native religions. This phenomenon
illustrates the process of
(A) contagious diffusion
(B) stimulus diffusion
(C) hierarchical diffusion
(D) relocation diffusion
(E) migrant diffusion

Answers

Answer:

The manner in which Islam has initially been spreading in sub-Saharan Africa can be described as hierarchical diffusion.

Explanation:

A is not correct because this type of diffusion is characterized by a distance controlled spreading of ideas, where a local population is used to spread it from person to person.

B is not correct because this type of diffusion is characterized by modifying the original ideas in accordance with one's views and perceptions.

C is correct because this type of diffusion is the one where it is the people of high authority that first take the step and adopt the ideas and the people accept them because their rulers did, or may not accept them at all.

D is not correct because this type of diffusion is characterized by relocating a population in order to influence another population to accept certain ideas.

E is not correct because this type of diffusion is characterized by a large group of people migrating and spreading the idea as they settle in a particular area.

What are the problems with getting electricity in the arctic?

Answers

Answer:

The main problems with bringing electricity to the Arctic are the climate and the condition of the soil.

Explanation:

The Arctic is one of the hardest areas in the world when it comes to bringing electricity to it. While the economic factor plays a role, it is still not the crucial one, as there can be enough investments without any particular problem to set up the infrastructure. The problems are in maintaining, preserving, and stabilizing the electrical infrastructure.

The problems come mainly because of the climate and the condition of the soil. The climate is very cold which affects the amount of electricity that is delivered, but the bigger problem is the constant powerful winds that are breaking up the installations. For most of the year, the soil is frozen, which is not a great starting point, but an even bigger problem is that it defrosts in the summer, the soil is oversaturated with water and not stable at all, so the electricity polls fall or lean.

During a tectonic plate demonstration, a teacher pushes two pieces of clay together. What kind of plate boundary was the teacher demonstrating?
A
convergent
B
earthquake
С
equator
D
divergent

Answers

Answer:

A. convergent

Explanation:

"Tectonic plates" are very important when it comes to studying the Earth. It moves in different directions every year. There are particularly three types of movements or plate boundaries (convergent, divergent and transform).

When the tectonic plates move away from each other, it is called "divergent." When they move towards each other, it is called "convergent," just like what the teacher demonstrated above. Pushing the two pieces of clay together means she's showing the movement of the tectonic plates towards each other. When the plates slide past each other, it is called "transform."

Answer:

Earth’s crust is distinguished from the lithosphere because the crust refers to a compositional later and the lithosphere is a mechanical layer, the solid layer near the surface of the Earth. The crust is mostly composed of alumino-silicate minerals while the lithosphere includes some of the solid regions of the upper mantle which is mostly ferro-magnesium silicates.

What evidence, first published by Abraham Ortelius, supports Alfred
Wegener's theory of continental drift?
A. Similar animals live in different parts of the world.
B. Sensitive instruments measure plate movement.
C. Faraway places share similar fossils.
D. The coasts of South America and Africa fit together.

Answers

Answer:

Abraham Ortelius put forward as evidence for the theory of continental drift the fact that the coasts of South America and Africa fit together.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the animals that live in the present would hardly prove anything when it comes to continental drift.

B is not correct because such instruments didn't exist during the time of Ortelius.

C is not correct because this was not a piece of evidence put out by Ortelius, but it was Wegener that did that.

D is correct because Ortelius based his theory around the shapes of the continents and that their edges seemed to fit, with the eastern coastline of South America and western coastline of Africa being the most noticeable example.

Oceanic plate being destroyed

Explanation:

The convergence at this margin between the oceanic pacific plate and the Continental South American plate causes subduction here.

At this margin, there is crustal destruction.

As the denser Pacific plate subducts under the less dense continental crust, it is increasingly destroyed. Most convergent margin of this type leads to the destruction of the crust. Usually, on an adjacent side, there is a mountain building. Basically, at this margin, the most important thing is that the crust is being destroyed.

strontium-147 cut into pieces what would be the half -life of each piece?

Answers

Answer:

2.62 years

Explanation:

The half life of a material is the time taken for half of the number of radioactive atoms in a radioactive material to remain.

If a radioactive material is cut into pieces, each piece has the same half life as the whole material.

Hence, if Strontium-147 is cut into pieces, each piece will have a half life of 2.62 years, just as the whole material.

Such proposed developments would forever destroy the wilderness character of Americas only Arctic Refuge and disturb countless numbers of animals that depend on this northernmost terrestrial ecosystem. 5 The extraordinary wilderness and wildlife values of the Arctic Refuge have long been recognized by both Republican and Democratic presidents. In 1960, President Dwight D. Eisenhower established the original 8.9 million-acre Arctic National Wildlife Range to preserve its unique wildlife, wilderness, and recreational values. Twenty years later, I signed the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, monumental legislation that safeguarded more than 100 million acres of national parks, refuges, and forests in Alaska. This law specifically created the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, doubled the size of the former range, and restricted development in areas that are clearly incompatible with oil exploration. 6 Since I left office, there have been repeated proposals to open the Arctic Refuge coastal plain to oil drilling. Those attempts have failed because of tremendous opposition by the American people, including the Gwichin Athabascan Indians of Alaska and Canada, indigenous people whose culture has depended on the Porcupine caribou herd for thousands of years. Having visited many aboriginal peoples around the world, I can empathize with the Gwichins struggle to safeguard one of their precious human rights.7 We must look beyond the alleged benefits of a short-term economic gain and focus on what is really at stake. At best, the Arctic Refuge might provide 1 to 2 percent of the oil our country consumes each day. We can easily conserve more than that amount by driving more fuel-efficient vehicles. Instead of tearing open the heart of our greatest refuge, we should use our resources more wisely.
