The false statement is -
a. Agricultural production has increased slightly since 1960.
The agricultural production in Africa, since 1960 until the present, has been increasing at a moderate rate, not at a small rate. If it was only a slight increase, considering the ever-growing population on the continent (it is the continent with fastest and biggest growth of population) than very big portion of the ''plus'' population would have died from starvation. The continent definitely needs bigger production, especially for its own needs, but it has to be said that little by little the situation is getting better at some regions.
The population of the sub Sahara desert will grow in the years to come and has been growing for a while now. I know this because in the graph the line is climbing at the same crate constantly.
Answer:
D. Heavy rainfall saturated the soil and destabilized the over-steepened slope.
Explanation:
The mud slide must have occurred in La Conchita California due to heavy rainfall which saturated the soil and destabilized the over-steepened slope.
Mud slide or mud flow is a form of mass wasting in which slope moves downward due to instability of the materials. They usually influenced by the effect of gravity on steep slopes.
- Prior to the mass moving event on the in the county, there was an unprecedented 14-15days streak of rainfall.
- The rain saturated and lubricated the soil bringing a reduction in their cohesion and ultimate movement.
- This led to the sliding down of the masses on the slope.
