Really a Short Answer Question? Nah! Here it is, actually a bit long. A two-party system is a system where two major political parties dominate politics within a government. One of the two parties typically holds a majority in the legislature and is usually referred to as the majority party while the other is the minority party.  In these cases, the chances for third party candidates winning election to any office are remote.  There is like a strong agreement that the United States has a two-party system. Two-Parties in America -  A. Republicans B. Democrats * America need a third party! The Pros and Cons of a Two-Party System The Pros of Two-Party System Help Voters Decide on a Party - Two party system clarify and giving solutions into the issues that are often encountered by most voters. Through the help of this system, it is possible that voters will never find the candidate that will grab their interest. More Efficient Governme...

Local winds are small scale convective winds of local origin caused by temperature differences. Local terrain has a very strong influence on local winds, and the more varied the terrain, the greater the influence. These occur on a small spatial scale, their horizontal dimensions typically several tens to a few hundreds of kilometers. They also tend to be short-lived lasting typically several hours to a day. There are many such winds around the world. Most common local winds are  sea breezes and land breezes, Anabatic and katabatic winds, and Foehn winds. Land Breezes and Sea Breezes:   As the names suggest, the two breezes occur along coastal areas or areas with adjacent large water bodies. Water and land have different heating abilities. Water takes a bit more time to warm up and is able to retain the heat longer than land does. Now let us see the following Diagram - Land Breeze:  It's  a coastal breeze blowing at night from land to s...

Soil geography deals with the distribution of soils as function of the five recognized soil-forming factors (climate, flora and fauna including Man, relief, parent material, time), either acting singly or in combination. It forms the basis of such concepts as zonality (i.e. the regional distribution of soils in zones), first formulated by Dokuchaev on the basis of climate for European Russia, elaborated upon further by Glinka and Sibirchev, who introduced the zonal, intrazonal and azonal soils approach, taking into account other soil-forming factors than climate. The loose material or the upper layer of the Mantle Rock, t he soil system, is the product of environmental and biological processes in interrelation with climate, vegetation (flora), animals (fauna), underlying rocks, topography and time which affect the biosphere. This is the  Zonal ( Older ) System of Classification .  This system links the distribution of various soil types to the distribution of...

An ecosystem is defined as any community of living and non-living things that work together.  Each ecosystem is unique. To understand this, we need to look at the biotic and abiotic factors within them - Abiotic  Factors  Vs Biotic  Factors Both biotic and abiotic factors are related to each other in an ecosystem, and if one factor is changed or removed it can affect the entire ecosystem. Abiotic factors are especially important because they directly affect how organisms survive. Abiotic Factors : Abiotic factors are those non-living physical and chemical factors which affect the ability of organisms to survive and reproduce. Abiotic factors vary in the environment and determining the types and numbers of organisms that exist in that environment.   Factors which determine the types and numbers of organisms of a species in an ecosystem are called limiting factors.   Many limiting factors restrict the growth of populations in nature. ...

Price elasticity of demand (PED or Ed) is a measure used in economics to show the responsiveness, or elasticity, of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a change in its price. More precisely, it gives the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a one percent change in price (ceteris paribus, i.e. holding constant all the other determinants of demand, such as income). Coefficient  ( E d ) Alternative E d = 0 Perfectly inelastic demand 0 < E d   < 1 Inelastic or relatively inelastic demand E d = 1 Unit elastic, unit elasticity, unitary elasticity, or unitarily elastic demand 1 < E d   < ∞ Elastic or relatively elastic demand E d   < ∞ Perfectly elastic demand Elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in demand of good X / % change in price of good X  If the PED is greater than one, the good is price elastic.
