How has geography affected settlement in Latin America?

The geography of Latin America, including diverse landscapes like mountains, jungles, and deserts, has influenced settlement patterns.

Harsh or remote environments, such as the Andes Mountains or the Amazon rainforest, are less populated due to challenges in transportation, agriculture, and infrastructure development.


What is Difference between glaciar valley and river valley?

A glacial valley is formed by the movement of glaciers, which carve out deep U-shaped valleys with steep sides and flat bottoms. A river valley, on the other hand, is formed by the erosion of flowing water over time, resulting in V-shaped valleys with narrower bottoms and less steep sides. Glacial valleys generally have a more pronounced U-shape and are wider compared to river valleys.

Why is the channel of the Nile smaller than of the rivers Mississippi-Missouri and the Amazon?

Without the topographic channel that permits the Nile to flow across the Sahara, Egypt would be entirely desert. The Nile traverses about 1,600 kilometres through Egypt and flows northward from the Egyptian-Sudanese border to the Mediterranean Sea. During this it loses a large amount of water due to evaporation, thereby reducing the water volume.
