Answer:

Oil spills damage soil, this causes the soil to become unusable and the crops growing to subside. Oil also causes water pollution because the oil rises to the top and coats the top of the water causing it to be very hard to get out of. Oil spills also damage nesting grounds, potentially causing serious long-term effects on entire species. ... By coating feathers, oil not only makes flying impossible but also destroys birds' natural waterproofing and insulation, leaving them vulnerable to hypothermia or overheating.

What form of geological activity does the great rift valley represent
Savatey [412]

Answer: Volcano

Explanation:

The Great Rift Valley is the site of major geological activity that stretches from Mozambique to the Middle East. Scientists believe that Africa and the Arabian Peninsula were joined together before they were separated by a process called rifting.

As the Earths tectonic plates begin to tear apart in this region, molten magma emerge from the earth crust to fill the void resulting in a separation.

Geologist estimates that the phenomenon which resulted in the great rift valley started 25 million years ago and gave rise to the Red sea. It is believed that the Indian Ocean flooded into the rift to form the Red Sea.

The.magma that seeps upward to fill crustal voids in the rift valley emerge mainly via volcanoes. Hence, many active and semi-active volcanoes are scattered throughout the region referred to as the Great Rift Valley, including Mount Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro.
