Grade2024-2025
Sphere - <<ANSWER>>Shape of the Earth
Physical Geography - <<ANSWER>>shape, spin, tilt, proximity to the sun's energy, and
surface relief
What is the tilt of the earth? - <<ANSWER>>23.5 degrees, helps determine seasons
Human Geography - <<ANSWER>>the properties of the planet that make human
activity possible
Gateway City - <<ANSWER>>seaport that serves as the entry point to a country by
being the primary arrival and departure point.
Ex: New Orleans
Manichean - <<ANSWER>>entering into a a modern industrialized era experienced a
series of religious revivals that embodied a dualistic perspective
Specie - <<ANSWER>>metal coin
Manifest Destiny - <<ANSWER>>perception of the rights to occupy spatially westward
Multinational Corporations (MNC's) - <<ANSWER>>overseeing an invisible empire of
sorts, American people often stand to benefit both publicly and privately by their profits
(NE- Fishing)
Attenuated - <<ANSWER>>thin, weakened in force landform
Tierra Caliente - <<ANSWER>>rainforests to warm-moist areas along the coast (sea
level to 2500 feet elevation) also known for bananas
Tierra Templada - <<ANSWER>>moderate climates (2500 to 6000 feet elevation)
Tierra Fria - <<ANSWER>>dryer cold climates (6000 to 11500 feet elevation)
, Hierarchical Diffusion - <<ANSWER>>the difference in foods that the poor to the rich
eat
Leaching - <<ANSWER>>loss of precious soils through erosion and by the percolation
of valuable nutrients resulting from the tropical rains taking nutrients down into the soil
away from the shallow roots of the tropical trees
Human-Environmental - <<ANSWER>>associated with the arrival of Europeans into the
Caribbean, resulted from a combination of mountains and tropical conditions
Erosion - <<ANSWER>>process of wind or water that breaks things down
Vexillology - <<ANSWER>>study of flags of the Caribbean

realm of America, governed by kings
Encomienda System - <<ANSWER>>means of employing the labor of native
americans, even powers of life and death existed in Middle American, especially
between Spanish and Native Americans
Coriolis Effect - <<ANSWER>>an effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system
experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion
and to the axis of rotation. Northern Hemisphere: clockwise. Southern Hemisphere:
counter-clockwise
Great Circle - <<ANSWER>>the circle formed by passing a plane through the exact
center of a perfect sphere. Ex: Longitude lines and equator
Currents - <<ANSWER>>A current is the steady, predictable movement of a fluid within
a larger body of that fluid.
Spin - <<ANSWER>>Roughly 24 hour period, a small circle (latitude) is actually moving
faster than a great circle as the Earth moves on its axis because the axis of rotation is
decreasing in size as one heads towards the poles.
Rotation - <<ANSWER>>a complete rotation is 24 hours around the axis
