People have to pay a higher interest on loan than the interest they receive on a fixeddeposit for the same time-period. Why do you think this is so? |
|
Answer» HeyaaExplanation:PEOPLE PAY higher interest rates on loans as some RISK is involved there. When a bank pays an interest on deposit, it means that the bank is effectively BORROWING at that rate. When the bank lends the same money it needs to have a spread which should be a little higher than the interest paid on the deposit. This difference will cover the cost of operating the bank and also the risk premium of engaging the bank in a loan transaction.Thus both rates are RELATED to each other. |

Can you describe what happens in each – how hot it gets, how much it rains, what happens to the plants and trees and animals, what food you get to eat etc. |
|
Answer» Plants are the only organisms that can prepare food for themselves by using water, carbon dioxide and minerals. The raw materials are present in their surroundings.The nutrients enable living organisms to build their bodies, to grow, to repair damaged parts of their bodies and provide the energy to carry out life processes. Nutrition is the mode of taking food by an ORGANISM and its utilisation by the body. The mode of nutrition in which organisms make food themselves from simple substances is CALLED autotrophic (auto = self; trophos = nourishment) nutrition. Therefore, plants are called autotrophs. Animals and most other organisms take in ready made food prepared by the plants. They are called heterotrophs ( heteros = other). Now we may ask where the food factories of plants are LOCATED: whether food is made in all parts of a plant or only in certain parts? How do plants obtain the raw materials from the surroundings? How do they TRANSPORT them to the food factories of the plants? |

Alaska on the otherhand gets much PROFIT from its natural resources like oil and gas. |
