what direction would you be traveling if you flew over Mt.Everest and then over the Nile river
Answer:
If I flew over Mt. Everest and then over the Nile River, I would be traveling west.
Explanation:
Mount Everest is located in the Himalayas, on the border between Nepal and the People's Republic of China. Its exact location is at 27° 59′ 17″ N 86° 55′ 31″ E.
In turn, the mouth of the Nile River is at the southeast end of the Mediterranean Sea, in Egypt. Its exact location is variable: that of Rosetta, the closest city to its mouth is 31° 24′ 05″ N 30° 25′ 10″ E, while that of Jinja, near its birth in Lake Victoria, is located at 0° 25′ 28″ N 33° 12′ 15″ E.
Therefore, starting from Everest, to reach the Nile you can travel both to the northwest and southwest, so the only correct statement is that the trip is being made to the west.

Why does karst topography only exist in some geographic locations?
Answer:
Some regions don't have limestone under or in their soil.
Explanation:
Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum.
Karst topography only exist in some geographic locations, are most regions have rock layers other than limestone. Thus, option (a) is correct.
What is Karst topography?
When the bedrock is composed of carbonate-rich rock, such as limestone, gypsum, or dolomite, which dissolves readily, karst topography typically develops in areas with heavy rainfall.
A certain kind of sedimentary rock, like gypsum, dolomite, or limestone, dissolves over time, creating a landscape known as karst. Numerous caverns, fissures, sinkholes, and underground streams define it.
As a result, option (a) is the accurate.

Drag each label to the correct location on the image.
Drag the names of the prevailing winds to the areas where they form in the Northern Hemisphere.
Trade wind
Polar wind
Weserlies
the correct answer is,
polar wind on top,
westerlies in the middle,
and trade winds on the bottom.
The correct answer is the following.
Drag the names of the prevailing winds to the areas where they form in the Northern Hemisphere.
On the top, polar wind. In the middle, westerlies, on the bottom, trade winds.
The polar wind is the wind that comes from the North Pole, specifically, from the polar regions of the magnetosphere of the planet. Polar wind results from the interaction of the atmosphere of the earth and the Solar wind. The prevailing winds in the middle latitudes that come from the west to the east are called westerlies. The opposite, from east to west, are called trade winds. Some scientists call them easterlies, in opposition to the westerlies.
On a map what is the height above sea level of a point on earth's surface called
"The height above sea level of a point on Earth's surface is called the elevation.
Elevation is the vertical distance of a point on the Earth's surface above or below a fixed level, often taken as the mean sea level. This measurement is crucial in various fields such as geography, geology, and aviation. It helps in understanding the topography of the land and is used to describe the altitude of mountains, the depth of valleys, and the height of various geographical features. Elevation is typically measured in meters or feet and is an important factor in weather patterns, ecological habitats, and human activities like construction and transportation."

The potato famine in Ireland in the mid 1800s can be a "pull" factor that causes people to migrate to the U.S ..true or false?
False,the Irish Potato Famine in the mid-1800s was a 'push factor,' not a 'pull factor,' as it forced over two million people to emigrate from Ireland due to starvation and disease, with many moving to the U.S.
The statement that the Irish Potato Famine in the mid-1800s can be a "pull" factor that causes people to migrate to the U.S. is false. The Potato Famine is actually considered a push factor, as it was an event that forced people to leave Ireland due to dire circumstances such as starvation and disease. A 'pull' factor, on the other hand, is a positive condition which attracts people to a new location, such as economic opportunities or political freedom. During the Irish Potato Famine, which started in the 1840s, a disease called potato blight (caused by the pathogen Phytophthora infestans) devastated the potato crops that the Irish population heavily relied on. The resultant mass starvation and death, along with poor living conditions, propelled more than two million Irish people to emigrate, with many choosing the United States as their destination in search of a better life.

The Caucasus mountain range is the highest in Russia, located between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, in the Caucasus region, between the basins of the Kuban River and the Térek River. This mountain range also has been considered the southeastern limit of Europe.
It should be noted that the highest point of this mountain range is Mount Elbrus (also the highest peak in Europe) with 5642 m of altitude. It is located in the western part of the Caucasian mountain range and, along with the Ural mountains, is the traditionally accepted border between Europe and Asia.
The city of Paris, France is in which hemispheres?
A.northern and eastern
B.southern and eastern
C.northern and western
D.southern and western
The correct answer is - A. northern and eastern.
The capital of France, Paris, lies in the northern and eastern hemisphere. It is in the northern hemisphere because it is north of the Equator, and it is in the eastern hemisphere because it is east of the prime meridian (Greenwich). It is interesting that there is a prime meridian that goes through Paris (on some maps), so that would make the city to be on zero point, not in the east not west hemisphere, but that is not the globally accepted prime meridian, so Paris remains in the east hemisphere officially.
