What are the main natural resources found in Northern Canada (Nunavut, The Arctic and Northern parts)?

crude oil and from biomass materials

Which places in Canada share electricity generating sources? How does the landscape impact how we generate electricity? What group of similar non-renewable natural resources do these two regions share as a source of electricity generation? Which region (Interior plains or GLSLL) relies more heavily on this resource? Why might this be?

Natural Gas and Coal (sedimentary rock Has fossils) - Interior Plains (older)

Hydroelectric Power and Wind Energy - Canadian Shield (rocky terrain)

Solar Power and Biomass - Arctic Region (permafrost)

Tidal Energy and Geothermal - Appalachian Region (mountainous)

Part B: Patterns- Which places in Canada share electricity generating sources? Climate: How does the Climate impact how we generate electricity? 5. Northern Canada has a variety of landscapes but what they all share in common are harsh climate conditions. What type of energy does northern Canada rely on most (which symbol do you see up north)? Why do you think they use a resource that is not widely available on site?

Diesel - generators as not connected to big grids (hydro could be but distribution is limited - whatever the material, it usually needs to be brought in by road or boat

Solar power - due to long daylight hours in winter

Wind turbines - because of constant strong winds

Hydroelectricity - due to abundant rivers and lakes

What are two places (regions) in Canada are you not likely to find a Biomass Power plant? Explain your reasoning.

Interior Plains and the north (Innuitians) because of lack of major vegetation

Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Lowlands and Appalachian region because of high population density

Cordillera and Hudson Bay-Arctic Lowlands because of abundant forests

Atlantic region and Pacific region because of high rainfall

Which of the following best describes the interrelationship between Population and Power Plant Size?

A larger population requires a larger power plant to meet energy demands, and larger power plants can support a growing population.

Population size does not affect power plant size.

Power plant size only depends on the type of energy source, not population.

Population and power plant size are unrelated.
