The correct option is (D) The ecological footprint of the United States is large because per capita resource use is high.

<h3>What is ecological footprint?</h3>
  • The Global Footprint Network advocates using the ecological footprint to determine how much nature is required to support a certain population or economy.
  • The ecological footprint accounting system tracks how much nature is being used and produced.The Ecological Footprint calculates the total productive areas for which a population, a person, or a product competes on the demand side.
  • It evaluates the ecological resources required by a specific population or product in order to produce the natural resources it consumes, as well as to absorb its waste, particularly carbon emissions.
  • The biocapacity of a city, state, or country, on the supply side, measures how productive its ecological resources are (including cropland, grazing land, forest land, fishing grounds, and built-up land).  
  • These regions can also be used to absorb the garbage we produce, particularly our carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels, especially if they are left unharvested.

Some examples where you have seen a chemical change and the mass has stayed the same
finlep [7]
The law of conservation of mass states that the mass will stay constant given a chemical reaction because no atoms were created or destroyed. This being said, an example can include water evaporating in a clear bottle outside on a hot day ( the mass of the bottle will stay the same, but the liquid water evaporated into gaseous water).
