Question

******** HELP PLEASE ****************

Which of the following items is a cause that can correctly complete this chart?
A)Active volcanoes spew ash and lava over the landscape.
B)Air pollution spreads through the water cycle.
C)Large areas of land are set aside as conservation areas.
D)Forests are cleared for farming and timber.

Answer 1

B)

Water pollution causes flooding due to the accumulation of solid waste and soil erosion in streams and rivers. Oil spills in the water causes animal to die when they ingest it or encounter it. Oil does not dissolve in water so it causes suffocation in fish and birds. Or when chemicals and harmful substances from the air get into water, when it floods, the flooding water that is now dangerous can get everywhere. It can get into our drinking sources, contaminate our soil, and even getting wet in it can harm you When all this polluted water floods the land, more damange is caused to the envirnoment and ecosystem.

I hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

D) Forests are cleared for farming and timber.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deforestation is a problem in that as there are no longer trees and obstacles to impede the flow of the water when it floods, the force and amount of water will cause even more damage than it would otherwise.
