Explanation:

Negative population growth is not a major environmental issues in Central America, South America and the Caribbean.

The population in this region of the world has been on the increase.

  • Deforestation is a raging environmental concern in the this region of the world. New farm lands are cleared to grow food crops. Construction of roads and industries are seriously impacting the Amazon basin in Brazil.
  • Water shortages is on the rise also due to pollution of fresh water sources and underground water bodies.
  • This is all as a result of growing human population.

The many volcanoes located along the edge of the Pacific Ocean make up the Ring of Fire. How does subduction play a role in the
sertanlavr [38]
<span>The most volcanically active belt on Earth is known as the Ring of Fire, a region of subduction zone volcanism surrounding the Pacific Ocean. Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction. As the descending plate bends downward at the surface, it creates a large linear depression called an oceanic trench. These trenches are the deepest topographic features on the earth's surface.

</span>
<span>The crustal portion of the subducting slab contains a significant amount of surface water, as well as water contained in hydrated minerals within the seafloor basalt. As the subducting slab descends to greater and greater depths, it progressively encounters greater temperatures and greater pressures which cause the slab to release water into the mantle wedge overlying the descending plate. Water has the effect of lowering the melting temperature of the mantle, thus causing it to melt. The magma produced by this mechanism varies from basalt to andesite in composition. It rises upward to produce a linear belt of volcanoes parallel to the oceanic trench, as exemplified in the above image of the Aleutian Island chain. The chain of volcanoes is called an island arc. If the oceanic lithosphere subducts beneath an adjacent plate of continental lithosphere, then a similar belt of volcanoes will be generated on continental crust. </span>

Which of the following scale is the largest?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

1 : 25,000 is the largest scale.

Explanation:

1 cm represents 2 km; is not correct because this is actually the smallest of the scales presented, meaning that 1 cm on the map is equal to 200,000 cm on the ground.

1 : 50,000; is not correct because this is the second-largest scale from the options.

1 : 25,000; is correct because it is the largest scale, with 1 cm on the map representing 25,000 cm on the ground. The smaller the scale, the larger it is.

1 : 100,000; is not correct because it is the third-largest, with 1 cm on the map representing 100,000 cm on the ground.
