Consider the following statements: 1. Second-order relief features are the result of plate collision or divergence. 2. Mount Kilimanjaro was formed as a result of the rifting that created the Great Rift Valley of Africa. Which of the statements given above is / are correct?   Correct Answer Both 1 and 2

The correct answer is Both 1 and 2

/hint - ​

The second-order of relief in the ocean basins comprises continental rises, slopes, abyssal plains, mid-ocean ridges, submarine canyons, and trenches of subduction.

/imp

  • The product of plate collision or divergence is the second-order relief features. Where plates diverge from one another, rifts form. If parallel rifting occurs, rift valleys can form, such as the African Great Rift Valley.
  • Rifting as magma pours out of the rift may be followed by volcanic activity. As a result of the rift that created the Great Rift Valley of Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro was formed. 
  • Continental characteristics include continental masses, mountain masses, plateaus, plains, and lowlands, which are graded in the second order of relief.

/key

  • On the surface of a planet or moon, a volcano is an opening that allows material warmer than its surroundings to escape from its interior.
  • Mauna Loa typifies a shield volcano, which is a huge, gently sloping landform built up of many eruptions of fluid lava.
  • Volcanoes are commonly located where there are diverging or converging tectonic plates, and most are found underwater.
  • Volcanoes are closely associated with plate tectonic activity.

How does a host on an Ethernet LAN know when to transmit after a collision has occurred?
1. In a CSMA/CD collision domain, multiple stations can successfully transmit data simultaneously.
2. In a CSMA/CD collision domain, stations must wait until the media is not in use before transmitting.
3. You can improve the CSMA/CD network by adding more hubs.
4. After a collision, the station that detected the collision has first priority to resend the lost data.
5. After a collision, all stations run a random backoff algorithm. When the backoff delay period has expired, all stations have equal priority to transmit data.

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives. Genetic variation is the cornerstone of evolution, without which there can be no natural selection, and so a low genetic diversity decreases the ability of a species to survive and reproduce, explains lead author Yoshan Moodley, Professor at the Department of Zoology, University of Venda in South Africa. Two centuries ago, the black rhinoceros – which roamed much of sub Saharan Africa – had 64 different genetic lineages; but today only 20 of these lineages remain, says the paper. The species is now restricted to five countries, South Africa, Namibia, Kenya, Zimbabwe and Tanzania. Genetically unique populations that once existed in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Mozambique, Malawi and Angola have disappeared. The origins of the 'genetic erosion' coincided with colonial rule in Africa and the popularity of big game hunting. From the second half of the 20th century, however, poaching for horns has dramatically depleted their population and genetic diversity, especially in Kenya and Tanzania.
Sub Sharan Africa has lost how many black rhino genetic lineages in 200 years?
