<h3>Two human developments that would increase the risk of people being affected by natural hazards:</h3>
<u>Development of Refineries:</u>
- Refineries burn fossil fuel, which results in a great release of toxic substances into the atmosphere.
- This is referred to as air pollution. These wastes are classified as CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons) they attack the molecules of ozone in the atmosphere, which releases much oxygen to the earth, but leaving less and less ozone molecules which protect the earth from direct effects of the sunlight.
- These effects include increase in temperature which negatively affects the ice that is stored in the North and South region of the earth
<u>Development of rural areas</u>
- This is a subtle means of natural hazard, because during urbanization, many species of plants and even some animals are destroyed.
- It is a natural hazard, because these plants or animals might prevent some certain things from happening.
- For example, grasses stops water erosion, trees serve as wind breaks to prevent wind from becoming sand storms
Answer:
e. Saturn is colder than Jupiter, so belts and zones formed deeper in Saturn's atmosphere where it was hot enough to form.
Explanation:
Dust similar to that in the ring is seen spiraling into Jupiter's atmosphere. Why are the belts and zones on Saturn less distinct than those on Jupiter? They are deeper inside Saturn's atmosphere. ... Saturn is cooler than Jupiter.
hope this helps
Answer:
<u>D. Gradient decreases, discharge increases.</u>
Explanation:
- As steam is a body of water that carries rock particles and dissolved ions, discharge is measured in terms of volume/time (m3/sec). So when a river discharges its flow from a headwater to its mouth the velocity increases in the downstream direction.
- Thus the river load-carrying capacity increases downwards and so does the discharge rate. The discharge rate can also be influenced due to the rainfall patterns, volume of water and velocity of flow.
- Rock types also impact the streamflow if it is a porous rock, the surface will absorb more of moisture content and comparative more will be the water penetration towers the mouth of the flow.
Answer:
<h2><u><em>natural resources are sources that occur in nature</em></u></h2>
there are two types of natural resources :
a) renewable resources
b) non-renewable resources
sunlight , trees, water, buildings and ships are <u>natural resources</u>
adobe is<u> not a natural resource</u>
<h3><u>
further explanation </u></h3>
buildings are made of clay from the earth which is a natural resource
ships are made of metal ores which are found in the earth hence also a natural resource
