Answer:
Oil reserves
Explanation:
Answer:
It’s flat. Very flat. And big, too, with a dry, hot center, perfect for forming stationary blocking highs and upper level troughs. Basically, nothing gets through from west to east without a rare and special authorization, and the once-moist air stagnates and dries out in a baking hot oven. Rain has to sneak its way past, usually by scraping along the southern edge, or by coming in from the north or north-east.
b. granite.
c. basalt.
d. limestone.
Answer: b. granite.
The continental crust is made largely of granite.
Explanation:
Granite is an igneous rock which consists of grains. It can be white, pink or gray in colour depending on its mineralogy. It is made up of feldspar and quartz with little mica, amphiboles and other minerals. It is buried beneath kilometers of rock and sediment in order to produce enough heat to melt rock during its formation. It is used to make paving stone, curbing, stair treads, building veneer, floor tiles and so on and also the continental crust is made largely of it.
b. fewer schools and classrooms for its population
c. an aging population that the government must support
d. fewer natural resources available to support its population
The correct answer is - c. an aging population that the government must support.
China has been trying to discourage the population growth in the country for around half a century now, and while it may be good for lots of reasons considering the size of the country's population, it might affect the economy in the future in a pretty bad way. If this trend continues, it means that relatively soon, China's age demographic picture will change drastically, where the percentage of the old population will constantly grow, thus having an aging population. This population will be taking pensions, and those money go through the government, which means the country will have to provide enormous amount of money each year, and as the time passes, more and more as well, in order to support them. Considering the sheer size of the population of the country, pretty soon we can be talking about a number of 150-200 million people that will be living on state money.
