Answer: d. all the above are true.

Mining is a process of extraction of valuable minerals and geological materials like fossil fuels, ores from the sub and deeper surface of the earth crust. Country's economy is chiefly dependent upon mining as materials are economically valuable but it affects the local populations in both positive and negative sense.

Mining is a vital part of the economy of surrounding towns : The resources obtained after mining can be sold at high price and can be economically useful for towns.

It introduces pollution into local water supplies : The dust liberate after mining can pollute the nearby water body, hence local water supply will be polluted.

Disrupts local populations of flora and fauna : The mining process involves the removal of the local land form which can cause elimination, migration and  extinction of population of flora and fauna species.  Hence, the biodiversity of that area is lost.

Therefore, all these situations are true.

Which organisms evolved from the common ancestor Pakicetus?
pav-90 [236]
Hippos likely evolved from a group of anthracotheres about 15 million years ago, the first whales evolved over 50 million years ago, and the ancestor of both these groups was terrestrial. These first whales, such as Pakicetus, were typical land animals. They had long skulls and large carnivorous teeth. Hope I’ve helped ;)

When a person is exercising the body needs to deliver increased amounts of oxygen to the muscles. Which componentes f the blood
ad-work [718]

In human blood, there is a compound inside the RBCs called haemoglobin which ensures that the muscle will receive enough oxygen during exercise.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

In human blood, the red blood corpuscles contain the haemoglobin. Haemoglobin is a iron chelated compound containing porphyrin ring and a globin tail which can establish co-ordinate covalent bond with both oxygen and carbon dioxide. The bonding element depends on the concentration of these two gases. In lungs, where the oxygen concentration is more than carbon dioxide, the haemoglobin bonds with oxygen and brings it to the tissues where carbon dioxide concentration is more. This makes the haemoglobin to release oxygen and bond with carbon dioxide which is brought back to lungs. This is the process by which each and every tissue including the muscles recieve oxygen.

In muscles there is Myoglobin which is another iron-porphyrin compound which has several times more affinity for oxygen than haemoglobin. This helps to extract more oxygen from haemoglobin in muscles.
