Explanation / Answer

2)- A - chloropleth

These are the thematic maps in which the areas are shaded in proportion to the measurement variables present in the map, so for this many of the variables are need to study and by this it gives the maximun or most form of datas in form of a map.

3)- a- pressure gradient

In simple terminilogy the gradient ,means the diffrence of any parameter, here the pressure gradient means the difference in between the higher to lower pressure levels of the air due to which air moves from on place to another, higher the gradient higher will be wind speed.

4)- d - when the streams losses nearly all its energy-

Streams have their kinetic energy which is associated with the flowing velocity, higher velocity means higher energy kinetic energy and vice- versa, less velocity results in the more sedimentation by the river stream on the beds and thus forms many landmasses, deltas are formed by the tremendous depostion which can be only done by the loosing all of its kinetic energy.

5)- d - land barriers

Pacific and the Atlantica ocean by the USA, South American land bridges

arctic ocean by the Canada, USA and russian land bridges

Indian ocean by the African, Australian, Asian continents
