I stayed home today, likely with whooping cough, I did actually do some homework though I was resting for the majority of the day. Now I have an abundant amount of energy which probably isn't going to help me get situated for school if I go. Today I looked through the Human Geography Quizlet I made and I'm pretty familiar with the content now and I'm ready to ace the assessment. Not too sure if this is also supposed to be 150 words but I don't really have much to discuss other than my struggles with the religion subject; which were very minuscule. The only part I struggled with within the Quizlet was some of the few denominations we are (probably) to need to know for the quiz. Lastly, I am going to hope (though I am quite confident) that this quiz was not too hard and that I can continue to strive in Human Geo. With that said, I am coughing and concluding my November 25 Blog Post, Till next time!
After working in depth with Latitude, we worked with Longitude. Both serve vital roles in determining coordinates on a map. First off lets start with a breakdown of Longitude. Longitude- "A geographic coordinate that specifies the east-west position of a point on earths surface. They run in a North- South direction." though they inform about degrees East and West. (As Seen Below). Notice how on the figure above, they label a specific point named "Greenwich". That being Greenwich Observatory based out of England which is considered the point in which Longitude is neither East or West. This point is often referred to as the Prime Meridian (Prime meaning 1 ), meaning that this Meridian (another term for lines of longitude) is at 0 °. We can also notice that it runs from the South Pole all the way to the North Pole. After working with Longitude, we began to work with UTC. "UTC, or Coordinated Universal Time is the primary time standard in which...
Demographic Transition Videos Khan Academy Video: 1. I learned that the Religion can have a large impact on population within family sizes because these Religions usually promote larger families to produce more adherents. 2. I was able to make more sense of how our growing population can be threatened by the limited resources contained on our Earth, which makes me wonder about how future generations will conserve their limited supply of these resources. 3. Lastly, I was startled to find that there may be a push for smaller families across the world because it is now more of a economical burden then support for your lifestyle; such as farming where having more kids would be of more use. PCC Videos, The Demographic Transition Theory: 1. I was baffled to say the least when I found out that our world population (Throughout the past few thousand years) at grown at a pace of 67,000 people per year and our world now produces that much off spring in about 6-7 hours. 2. I sta...
