Acountry in africa is experiencing a long period of time with no rainfall. which of the following events is most likely to occur as crops begin to die? a. an earthquake b. a flood c. a famine d. a hurricane select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

C. a famine

Explanation:

As the African countries don't generally have adequate rainfall they don't have proper crop yield and thus have more chances of famines and thus the long period of no rainfall is found to produce the rapid drying of the landmasses and hence as a result of this, the crops are going to die. Hense a draught type of condition is going to be created and this will definitely impact the food supply of the areas as the land production capacity gets declined. Also, the continent of Africa has faced certain crop failures in the past and the overpopulation and overgrazing in the lands caused a greater chance of erosion and thus leading to these food shortages.

It is C because a Famine is an extreme scarcity of food.

Humid continental climate is found in the interior of continents between the 30 and 60 degrees latitude, but usually above the 40 degree line.   40 degrees north of the equator means less direct sunlight and therefore less warmth.   this climate is mainly found in the northern hemisphere since there are no major landmasses in the southern hemisphere.  if you live in northern indiana, you know all about humid continental because that is the climate type you have!
