When groundwater is depleted, the ground surface above can sink down over time. This is called Land Subsistence. Thus, option "D" is correct.

Answer:

Volcanoes, burning fossil fuels, and respiration of organisms.

Explanation:

Volcanoes, burning fossil fuels, and respiration of organisms releases carbondioxide that forms atmospheric carbondioxide. The carbon enters in the biosphere through the process of photosynthesis. In plants, carbondioxide enters in the plant body which is used as a reactant from which food is prepared. The carbon present in the plant body in the form of glucose which can be transferred into another organism due to feeding of organisms. The organism released this carbon in the form of carbondioxide when the eaten food is broken down for the release of energy. In that way, carbon moves from biosphere to the atmosphere whereas Volcanoes and burning fossil fuels releases carbon in the atmosphere, in this way carbon moves from lithosphere to atmosphere.

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The small population size means that the new colony may have reduced genetic variation from the original population and that variation, in this case, included the dominant allele for Huntington's disease. Genetic drift, along with natural selection, mutation, and migration, is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution. In this case, it was a chance that the settlers all carried the allele for Huntington's disease.
