The correct answer is - b. less arable land.

The cleaning of the land by its natural cover, be it forests or grasslands, has very negative effect on the environment. The soil loses its natural protection so it can erode easily, the biodiversity in both the flora and fauna will be decimated, and there will be bigger CO2 emission into the atmosphere as there will be no plants to consume it for the process of photosynthesis.

The purpose of the clearing of the land is usually two things, building or increasing the area of arable land for the agriculture. So the clearing of the land doesn't mean less arable land, but the opposite, more arable land.

Which of the following hest explains why Latin America has no Truly Cold climate types?
Anika [276]

Answer:

Most of Latin America is located in a Tropical zone that receives the Sun's direct rays yearly.

Explanation:

Latin America, as a region, has almost exclusively tropical types of climates, with Truly Cold climates lacking from the region. The closest that climates get to truly cold types are the highest parts of the Andes and the southernmost part of the region in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, but none of them have polar-type characteristics all year round.

This climate situation in Latin America is due to its position relative to the Equator. The Equator passes through the widest part of the region, and the vast majority of the territory north and south falls into the tropical realm, and this is also helped by the fact that north and south of the Equator the territory shrinks and the influence of the ocean is greater. The majority of the region has a tropical wet climate, savanna-like grasslands, and tropical deserts.
