Frozen water (ice) has less density than liquid water. How does this property of water affect life on earth? Ice floats on the s

urface, sustaining life at the bottom of lakes and oceans. Ice floats on the surface, helping animals migrate over lakes and bays. Ice floats on the surface, maintaining sub–zero temperatures at the bottom of lakes and oceans.

If the water is salty like in the oceans, as the water freezes the salt is pushed out making the water denser making it sink to the bottom in a current to keep climate cool and the surface currents warm the artic. The way it effects life is, it makes a passageway over the freezing water across so that you won't freeze to death swimming. And it helps migration too. The Sub-zero waters keep algae from growing, which is good because most are hibernation.

I hope this helped!

Subduction zones are found under which kind of plate
kvv77 [185]
High rates of volcanism, earthquakes, and mountain building are the sites of subduction zones. They occur in convergent boundaries found in tectonic plates of both oceanic and continental crusts. Subduction zones occur when one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate, sinking into the mantle as the plates converge again.
<span>
Regions that are within subduction zones experience an average rate of convergence of 2-8 centimeters per year. They are subject to many earthquakes because of the collisions that occur within the tectonic plates. </span>

fgiga [73]

Answer:

3. Household wastes

2. Landfills

1. Agriculture

Explanation:

The groundwater is more and more contaminated, and there are numerous ways in which the contamination occurs. The causes of pollution mainly come from the human activities. The humans use all sorts of chemicals, fossil fuels, paints, and often there is waste from them, waste that is dumped into the drainage, and occasionally reaches the groundwater. The leaking of linings also manages to cause lot of damage, as very often it can reach the groundwater, causing heavily contamination of it. The agriculture, as much as it is needed, is a big polluter too, and the pollution mainly comes from the usage of pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, which wash through the soil and end up in the groundwater.
