8. The module provides various examples of how ecosystems can be destroyed by humans and natural disasters. Describe one way an ecosystem can be destroyed by humans AND one way it can be destroyed naturally.

An ecosystem can be destroyed by humans because of pollution and too much hunting can lead to extinct animals. Natural disasters can also destroy ecosystems. A couple was are Hail, Hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes. All of those can destroy crops.

Answer 2

1) Due to the low dam levels, water limits were enforced on customers in many Southern African countries. The drought has also resulted in the death of livestock and low crop yields as a result of insufficient or non – existent rainfall, irrigation water source.

4) I would visit the Nile River because it is the only river that flows north instead of south and it is the longest river in the world. I would also visit the Sahara Desert because it is the largest hot desert in the world and is home to beautiful animals such as antelopes and gazelles. Both feature are beautiful, unique and has an important role in shaping the society of countries in Africa.

5) In todays modern-day the invention that would have a similar influence would be the alphabet because the people in the Song dynasty used this as their way for writing down Chinese language and since in todays modern world we have the alphabet so it all works.

6) The mining of Gold and Planting of cotton does have a positive yet negative impact. The mining of gold and the planting of cotton makes the country wealthier due to the high demand in the international market while on the other hand, mining of Gold and the plantation of cotton needs a clean piece of land so that the vegetation must be removed around the mining site as well as the cotton crop which destroys the habitat of organisms and effects the ecosystem.
