The water cycle transports a plethera of microorganisms, and many of them are harmful for human beings. These include bacteria, protozoa, viruses, and lavae of high-ordered parasytes. Some of the aforementioned are Giardia, Cyptospordium, Shigella, E. coli, hepatitis A virus, and enterovirus.

Waters can also carry chemical wastes such as pesticides, and heavy metals dissolved in them. It is common to hear about acid rain as a result of pollution, and it originates as a result of mixing sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide with water molecules in the atmosphere.

There are several technological improvements over the past 100 years that have made the availability of clean water to communities a lot easier, and not only depend on boiling water. Filtration is the most common practice, it traps most unwanted particles and microorganisms, but it should be accompanied with chemical disinfection, which uses halogens to oxidize essential celluar structures and enzymes. In the present, chemical disinfection can even be achieved with adding a pill to a specific volume of water.

How is Earth’s structure related to the creation of continents, oceans, and mountain ranges?
tigry1 [53]
The topmost layer of the earth (aside from the atmospher) would be the crust. It is made up of tectonic plates that move in different directions. The collisons and abrasions made by these plates sliding and crashing into each other means that mountain ranges pop up like wrinkles, and continents can move around over time. This happens over millions of years.
good luck !

Svetach [21]

Answer: GIS technology and collection of health data.

Explanation:

If a doctor is studying the effects of the diseases in the country he can make use of the geographic data to study the occurrence of the diseases in the past and with the help of the geographic data could analyze it through the use of the Geographic Information System technology that helps to study the areas on the world map that shows similar patterns of infections.

So the use of the technology can help in understanding problems of the disease which are generally related to the most and humid tropics as compared to the cold polar climate that has a different type of diseases and flues etc.

Also the collection of real-time data on the patients the doctor can match the symptoms and help in studying the further root cause of the problems.

Estimate, to the nearest tenth of a minute, the times that P-waves and S-waves firstarrived at each recording station (seismogra
VashaNatasha [74]

P waves can travel through liquid and solids and gases, while S waves only travel through solids. Scientists use this information to help them determine the structure of Earth.

S waves have a larger amplitude than P waves and cause the ground's surface to move both vertically and horizontally, making them more dangerous. Surface waves, which move slowly, are the last to arrive. P waves leave the earthquake first and go the furthest. Rock oscillates perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation in S or shear waves. In rock, S waves typically move at a pace of roughly 60% that of P waves, and they always come after the latter. Points of solid media move back and forth perpendicular to the wave's direction of propagation due to S waves, also known as shear or transverse waves. As the wave passes, the medium is sheared first in one direction and then in the opposite direction.
