Final answer:
The current state of the area affected by the Dust Bowl is unchanged.
Step-by-step explanation:
The current state of the area affected by the Dust Bowl is unchanged (b).
The Dust Bowl was an ecological catastrophe during the mid-1930s in the Southern Great Plains. It featured windstorms that removed the topsoil of 100 million acres of farmland, leaving the land barren. The topsoil had largely turned to dust as a result of drought and erosion.
Caroline Henderson's account in 1935 describes the damage caused by the Dust Bowl, including permanently damaged native grass pastures, ruined fences, impassable roads, and dead or dying orchards and hedgerows.
