Answer:
This passage is mainly about asteroids striking Earth.
Explanation:
The presented passage is mostly focusing on asteroids striking Earth. It is something that has been happening since Earth has formed, and it will happen in the future as well. The vast majority of the asteroids don't really have any impact on Earth, but some have an impact that is devastating and long-lasting.
In the earlier stages of Earth, many more asteroids were falling on the surface, and the main reason for that has been the lack of atmosphere or a very thin atmosphere. As the atmosphere started to take shape and became similar to what is nowadays, the asteroid impacts decreased significantly because the atmosphere was managing to burn them and break them apart. This is not possible with all asteroids though, as some are so big and fall under an angle where the atmosphere doesn't really have any impact on them so when they fall on the surface they are able to cause sudden climatic changes, mass devastation, and mass extinction of species. Such an asteroid will be in a direction to hit Earth in the future for sure, the question remains will humans with their technology be able to prevent an impact or not.
Answer: D. transportation time and shipping costs being reduced
Explanation:
As a result of advancements in transportation of goods across different areas, getting agricultural produce from rural to urban areas became cheaper and more efficient. This reduced the need for people to have to engage in Agriculture in the urban areas since they could just buy the produce they wanted relatively easily.
This freed up land for other ventures such as more housing, business and sports centres as well as other structures and not forgetting areas reserved for the facilities needed to transport the goods from other areas to urban areas.
