ANALYSIS OF A TOPOGRAPHIC PROFILE




    In the geographical picture at the top you can see the Iberian Peninsula cross by a line and in the bottom of the picture there is a topographic profile.a topographic profile is the graphic representation of the relief on an area ,obteined by cutting transversely the contour lines of a topographic map.as you can see the line that I drew is crossing the Iberian Peninsula,it goes from the northwest (Pyrenees) to the southeast (Guadalquivir river).

    This line that I described in the first pharagraph cross different reliefs of the Iberian Peninsula such as Pyrenees, Ebro river basin, Sistema Iberico, Sistema Central, Submeseta Sur, Guadalquivir river basin.

    The first surronding ranges are the Pyrenees those habe a complex structure they were created in the third period or Cenozoic and the main peaks are Aneto and Monteperdido. The second relief in my line is the Ebro river basin, it is between the Pyrenees and the Sistema Iberico, this basin appear in the Cenozoic.The next range is the Sistema Iberico that has two part or sectors, the interior and the exterior. In the interior the main ranges are Demanda, Moncayo, Albarrazin and Serrania. On the other hand the main peaks of the exterior are Javalambre and Gudar. It (Sistema Iberico) was created in the third period. After the Sistema Iberico, in my line goes the Sistema Central it is the highest inner range of the plateau (600-800 m) and the main mountain ranges are Somosierra, Guadarrama, Gredos, Peña de Francia and Gata.It was formed in the primary period. In the fifth relief is the Submeseta Sur ,It is the lowest range of the plateau, it was formed in the Cenozoic and the main peak is Guadalupe.The last relief is the Guadalquivir river basin that is between the Submeseta sur and the Sistemas Beticos.

ANALYSIS OF A POPULATION PYRAMID

Analysis of a population pyramid you can click here to know more information In first place we are going to define what a population pyramid is: it is a graph that shows the structure of a society by sex and age at a given time and place. We can divide this pyramid into three sections: young dependents (0-14), working population(15-64), old dependents (65+). According to the sex structure of this graph, the sex ratio at birth is equaly, the number of girls born are the same as boys (16%), so the sex ratio matches in 0-4 level. In the other hand women have the higher life expectancy. The reasons of that might be historical, dangerous jobs and smoking of men and healthy life of women. With regard to the age structure of the pyramid we can say that it corresponds with the first stage, It has expansive shape and concave sides because of the high birth rate (39.3% 0 ) and the high death rate (14.5% 0 ), consecuenly the net migration is negative and the real increse is lower ...

DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

The American Declaratation of Independence is a document,  approved by the  Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, that announced the separation of North American British colonies from Great Britain. It talks about what they called unalienable rights: equality, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, despite they (upper class) omitted Indians, black slaves and women. I think that both historian,s interpretations of this statement could be close to reality, it is an evidence that Bernard Bailyn one adopts the most extreme position, he says Americans believed an evil and deliberate conspiracy of Britain against their liberty, they believed that England was trying to enslave them and the only option that they had to protect themselves was to use the power which God has given to them. In the other hand Howard Zinn talks about people´s history of the United States, he thinks that the main point of this declaration was the way in which upper class persuade the lower class to jo...

MIGRATION: SPAIN IN-OUT

SPAIN IN                       Firstly I am going to analyze the inmigration in Spain, inmigrats that come to Spain with the dream of get a new life are usually from LEDCs such as Morocco (30%), Romania (25%), Ecuador (10%), Colombia (12%), Peru (5%) or Bolivia (2%). Inmigrant from those countries came to Spain every years to get better conditions, job, home, rights... Luckily most of them found a job, working as agricultors, builder or cleaners and could life better but not the best. Also Spain in this case, get some "exchange" if we can call like that, because they pay taxes, population increase and lot of things that contribute to the country.  In the opposite side the inmigrants that came from MEDCs such as United Kingdom, France or Germany are usuallyyoung people that have studied a career and want to find job; or retired people that like Spain and want to life here to being comfortable.   SPAIN OUT ...
