19) What winds are prevailing in the British Isles?

The prevailing winds over the British Isles are from the south-west, and winds are strongest on coasts that face the Atlantic. Generally, the coast tends to be windier than inland areas; and the west tends to be windier than the east.

Gales — which are defined as winds with speeds of 51 to 101 km/h (32 to 63 mph)— are strongly associated with the passage of deep depressions across the area. The Hebrides experience on average 35 days of gale a year (a day where there are gale force winds). Areas of high elevation tend to have higher wind speeds than low elevations.

Prevailing winds bring air from the Atlantic over the British Isles either cooling or warming it but most certainly bringing rain!

20) What role does the relief play?

.Relief (or local relief ) refers specifically to the quantitative measurement of vertical elevation change in a landscape. It is the difference between maximum and minimum elevations within a given area, usually of limited extent.  The relief of a landscape can change with the size of the area over which it is measured, making the definition of the scale over which it is measured very important. Because it is related to the slope of surfaces within the area of interest and to the gradient of any streams present, the relief of a landscape is a useful metric in the study of the Earth's surface.

21. How and why is wildlife protected?

Why wildlife needs to be protected?

There are many reasons for conserving wildlife. It is necessary for the maintenance of genetic diversity; plants and animals act as environmental indicators, they provide the natural materials for food and medicine; wildlife is pleasing to all and it provides amenity. All living organisms are interrelated; all crops and domestic animals descend from wildlife and all depend on wild species directly or indirectly. All green plants and all animals (including humans) rely on microorganisms cycling the chemical elements necessary for life, while many plants also depend on insects and other animals for fertilisation and dispersal. Together all organisms resemble a living body with each part dependent upon others. We do not know what the effect of losing any of these species would be. Children are main users of natural spaces, even very small spaces near their homes. There is a real risk that children lose what they need for mental, physical and social development when places are tidied up by adults. Since children and wildlife often value the same features and details, what damages the interests of one will affect those of the other.

thankfully, more and more preservation programs have been established to ensure that these animals are protected, bred, and well-taken care of. These preservation programs motivate and increase the awareness of the public regarding the proper management of natural resources.

22. What species of flora and fauna can be found in gb?

The island of Great Britain, along with the rest of the archipelago known as the British Isles, has a largelytemperateclimate. It contains a relatively small fraction of the world's wildlife. The biota was severely diminished in the lastIce Age, and shortly (in geological terms) thereafter was separated from thecontinentby theEnglish Channel's formation. Since then, man has hunted the most dangerous forms (the wolf,[Notes 1]thebrown bearand thewild boar) to extinction, though domesticated forms such as the dog and the pig remain. The wild boar has subsequently been reintroduced as a meat animal.[2]
