Answer:

Correct Answer is D. All of the Above

Explanation:

Losing the glaciation in the Alps would result in a lot of consequences for Europe, Apart from cultural loss, Europe would lose one of the main Fresh drinking water sources they have, affecting mainly the communities near the mountains.

Another factor is that the Alps are also a very important tourist attraction for Europe, many visitors go to the Alps attending many events being held in the mountains or simply going for a hike, the economic loss would be devastating.

Switzerland currently has one of the many important hydroelectric dams that uses the water that flows down the Alps, without the glaciation the water running down will decrease in quantity gradually, leading to a loss of electric energy in the country, and because they sell this energy to other countries the consequence would be devastating.

The naturalist and father of zoogeography Alfred Russel Wallace noted a distinct difference in the fauna between several islands
Nadusha1986 [10]

The correct answer is Option C) The environments of Australia and Asia are completely different, despite their relative close proximity.

The naturalist and father of zoo - geography Alfred Russel Wallace noted a distinct difference in the fauna between several islands in the Malay Archipelago (present-day Indonesia). He used these differences to delineate the boundary between the Australian and Oriental biogeographic realms. The reason behind this difference is that the environments of Australia and Asia are completely different, despite they are in a very close proximity relatively.

<h3>Why is the environment of Australia and Asia different?</h3>

The Wallace line is a boundary line drawn by British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace on the basis of difference in fauna in the year 1859 between Asia and Australia. The reason and the root cause behind this faunal distinction is that the ancient supercontinent named Gondwana was separated entirely from other parts of the world when Pangaea broke up. The current Australia and the smaller islands were a part of Gondwana and this is why their fauna is so different from that of South - East Asia, even if they are very close together relatively.
