Explanation:
The Inca empire was one of the most developed civilizations in the Americas and it was the one that had the largest territory. Unlike many other civilizations that formed and prospered in large fertile plateaus, fertile river valleys, or lowlands in general, the Incas were unique in this department. Their civilization was formed on the high Andean Mountains which even after the expansion toward the coastline it remained the core of the empire.
One of the main reasons why the empire prospered was an excellent road infrastructure. Despite a big portion of the empire being located on very rugged terrain, the Incas still managed to build a state of the art roads for that period of time. They also built excellent roads along the coastline as well. While the main roads were roughly parallel to each other, with the coastline ones being very low and the mountain ones being very high, the Incas also built connection roads between them on every crucial point.

Examine the layers of rock. Identify and explain which layer contains the youngest fossils.
Answer:
The layer that contains the youngest fossils is layer A.
Explanation:
In the picture, we have presented four layers and each of them contains one fossil. The rock layers are horizontally arranged and there isn't any disturbance to the layers. Without having disturbances, we have a situation of superposition, basically meaning that the rock layers are arranged in order by age.
The principle of superposition means that the bottom layer of rock strata is the oldest, while the top layer of rock strata is the younges, and all layers between them are arranged from top to bottom as younger to older. In this case, layer A is the one on top, thus it is the youngest layer of rock, and with it, the fossils it contains are the most recent as well. The fossil that we can see is most probably of a carnivorous dinosaur or a very large carnivorous reptilian.
Answer:
A is the youngest.

Why did Canaan split into two kingdoms?
1.The land was too large and it was hard to rule
2.Internal conflict
3.They didn't know who should lead them after their king died
4.They kept getting conquered by neighboring civilization
Answer:
Correct answer is 2.Internal conflict
Explanation:
First option is not correct as Canaan was not such a large kingdom, especially when compared to others that surrounded them.
Option 2 is correct as the kingdom was divided into two parts, because Solomon's successor wasn't able to preserve the unity of the country.
Option 3 is not correct as after Solomon's death his son Rehoboam took the throne, but wasn't able to rule for a long period.
Option 4 is not correct as they were conquered in the 8th Century BC, and this division happened in 10th Century BC.

PLSS HELP
Answer:
Hurricane. The pattern looks like a whirlpool.
Explanation:
According to the question, the picture is a Hurricane, and it's a type of cyclone that comes to the USA.
What is Hurricane?Hurricanes are tropical storms with winds of at least 119 kilometers per hour (74 miles per hour), which occur in the Atlantic Ocean.
The eyewall, where the winds and rains are greatest, the rain bands that spin out from the center and give the storm its size, and the calm core of a hurricane are the three main components. The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is used by meteorologists to categorize storms into one to five different categories.
The names of the three types of storms—hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones—depend on where they originate. These storms are known as "hurricanes" in the North Atlantic and the central and eastern North Pacific. Typhoons are what they are known as in the western North Pacific, and cyclones are what they are known as in the South Pacific and the Indian Ocean. (Tropical cyclones in the South Atlantic are uncommon.)

If the continents will continue to move, try to predict the Philippines'
location 25 million years from now.
Answer:
Philippines will join Southeasern China by then.
Explanation:
According to NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration the continents are constantly moving in a gradual process often referred to as plate tectonics. This process is believed will cause the continents to move and come closer in the distant future years.
By 25 million years to this period, it has been predicted that the Philippines, just like the way India has added to Asia about 50 million years ago, will move a bit upward and collide with southeastern China with little or no water between them.
At this period, the Australian continent will also be closer to them.
In 25 million years, the Philippines will most likely still be in the South China Sea but quite close to Mainland Asia
It is estimated that the Philippines are moving towards mainland Asia at a rate of 7 cm every year.
In 25 million years, it would have moved:
= 7 x 25 million
= 175 million cm
This is 1,750 km.
The Philippines current distance from the mainland is around 2,135 km.
We can therefore conclude that if the Philippines keeps moving at this rate, it will be quite close to the mainland in 25 million years but will not have joined it yet.

if EF=2x-20,FG=3x-19, and EG=26, find the values of x, EF, and FG.
Answer:
x = 10
EF = 10
FG = 26
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Point EF = 2x - 20
Point FG = 3x-19
Straight line, EG = 26
It can be deducted that the points are on a straight line, EG.
Therefore, EG = EF + FG
Substituting the values into the equation, we have;
26 = 2x - 20 + 3x - 19
Rearranging the equation, we have;
26 + 20 + 19 = 2x + 3x
75 = 5x
x = 75/5
x = 15
To find point EF;
EF = 2x - 20
Substituting the value of "x" into the equation;
EF = 2(15) - 20
EF = 30 - 20
EF = 10
To find point FG;
FG = 3x - 19
Substituting the value of "x" into the equation;
FG = 3(15) - 19
FG = 45 - 19
FG = 26

The oceanic Pacific plate and the oceanic Juan de Fuca plate are diverging. Which landform would you expect to form?
a mid-ocean ridge
a volcanic island arc
a rift valley
a non-volcanic mountain chain
a volcanic mountain arc
Answer:
The landform that will form is a mid-ocean ridge.
Explanation:
When tectonic plates move away from each other they form a divergent plate boundary. At this type of boundary, as the plates move away, a gap starts to open up gradually. This gap becomes wider and wider over time and the crust is made much less thick, which in turn presents a good opportunity for the magma to come out on the surface.
Because the crust is weaker and thinner, the magma manages to rise through it and rich the surface relatively easily. As it does, the magma reaching the surface, or rather the bottom of the ocean, it solidifies in the water and as more and more magma comes out it piles up. By piling up and constantly creating new rock an underwater mountain chain starts to form and this type of mountain chain is known as a mid-ocean ridge.
Answer:
Mid-Ocean ridge

Answer:
Igneous rocks
Explanation:
Plateau are associated with igneous activities.
A plateau is a table land made up of a flat top and escarpments on both sides. They extend for several kilometers and are some of the defining landscapes on earth. They form in areas of tectonic plate movement in which volcanic activities have defined the landscape. Crustal shortening and thickening are also responsible for the formation of plateau.The chart shows the ethnicities of the US population.

Explanation:
The region shown on the map is Central America, but also the Caribbean Sea. This region, geographically speaking, is part of North America because it lies on the North American plate, but very often it is put as a separate region known as Central America, or rather the part of the Americas that connect North and South America. East of this region is located the Caribbean Sea, while west of is the Pacific Ocean
Central America is a region that was formerly a Spanish colony, with the exception of Belize, and this can be seen easily in the culture and languages that are spoken, with the Spanish dominating in six of the seven countries, while in Belize it is the English that is dominant. Five of the countries of Central America have access to both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, giving them an excellent strategic location. The region is almost entirely dominated by a tropical wet climate and it is covered with tropical rainforests. While many things seem to be excellent for these countries to be well developed and to have going well, they still struggle a lot, mainly because of internal conflicts.
The given map represents the region of Central America involving the Caribbean sea.
The correct matching of the letter that represents the map are:
Caribbean sea - BPanama - CBelize - ANicaragua - FGuatemala - GEl Salvador - ECosta Rica - DHonduras - HThe sea present above North America is the Caribbean sea. The map represents Central America, east of which is the Caribbean and west is the Pacific ocean.
The countries present along the coast of the Caribbean sea are Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, and Belize.
Costa Rica lies between the Pacific and Caribbean sea.
The country Honduras is situated between Guatemala and El Salvador. The south of the country is pacific, whereas the Caribbean sea washes at the north.
