Another interesting animal is the Giant Anteater also known as an antbear. This type of anteater can fight off a puma or a jaguar, but has no teeth. But it’s tongue is more than 2 feet long and can lick up about 35,000 ants at once! This anteater is usually 7 feet long, taller than most humans. Brazil is known for another interesting thing, it’s beautiful places. One of which is Iguazu Falls that rivals with the well known Niagara Falls.
Iguazu is known to look like a floating island.
The unsimplified ratio of Iguazu’s measurements to Niagara's measurements are:
Width- 8,700:4,900, height- 269:183,194, river volume- 61,660:202,000, elevation: 640:614, flow rate (cubic feet per second) 62,010:84,760.
Iguazu has a higher width and …show more content…
Including deforestation in the Amazon Basin, illegal wildlife trade, illegal poaching, land degradation and air and water pollution. Water pollution in Brazil is caused by mining activities, wetland degradation, and severe oil spills. Acid rain is also a problem. It’s caused by the rise of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. Acid rain is dangerous to plants, animals and humans. When the environment isn’t dying, it does a lot for the people. For example, trees provide wood and leaves to make shelter. Wood also can be used to fuel fire. Trees also provide fresh air and sometimes fruit. People can also get fresh water from lakes, ponds, rivers and seas if you boil the water to get rid of the salt. Agriculture is a very popular job in Brazil. 3 major crops that are grown are grain, sugar cane, and wheat. 119.294 million tons of grain were harvested in 2004, grown in 47.329 million ha. In 2014, there were 6,261,895 tons produced. Since 1553, sugarcane has been the most important crop in Brazil. Also in 2014, there were 6,261,895 tons produced. The average wheat production is 3,017,591 tons. As you already know, agriculture is one of the main jobs in Brazil. The other top 2 jobs in Brazil are mining and manufacturing. The average monthly income for a miner is 295$ US or 747$ ppp. The average monthly income for a manufacturer is a maximum of 21,000 BRL (Brazilian real regional currencies), a median …show more content…
In the city, people live in buildings like skyscrapers. In the country, they live in houses like we do. In the mountains, they have handmade brick houses for the poor. Brazil is mostly very hot or rainy, this could impact people’s jobs drastically. For a farmer, their plants could dry up or get flooded from too much rain. When miners breathe in the air from underground, it could be very unhealthy. All workers could get tired or dehydrated faster. It rains a lot in the south region of Brazil in summer, this could be dangerous for miners when they’re underground. Manufacturer’s machines might overheat when it’s really hot. Clothing in Brazil is affected a lot by landforms. Because there are many mountains, forests, and wetlands, people will mostly wear baggy pants or long loose skirts and such so that they won’t overheat. Jobs are also affected by landforms. Since there are so many mountains, mining is very popular. The mountains could be filled with very valuable resources that could benefit Brazil. The many rivers in Brazil inspire the job of agriculture where they can grow crops with that important water and feed the people of Brazil. Manufacturers can use the plentiful forests to get wood so they can make products and fuel their factories. Lastly, landforms affect homes. Once again, the forests help people by providing wood and leaves so they can build houses. They can also utilize stone and such that they mine from places
