Answer:

The correct answer is 60 percent.

Explanation:

The Clean Water Act refers to a federal law of United States, which observes the release of contaminants into the surface waters of the country, comprising rivers, lakes, wetlands, streams, and coastal areas. Approximately 30 years after passing of the Clean Water Act in the United States, the percentage of surface water, that is, regarded safe for swimming and fishing had enhanced from 36 percent to 60 percent, which is approximate twice the original value. Some kind of policies and programs were implemented as part of the act.

How does earth atmosphere support life?
Luda [366]

Answer:Water. Earth. Fire. Air.

My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar mastered all four elements. Only he could stop the ruthless firebenders, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years have passed and the Fire Nation is nearing victory in the War.

Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help fight against the Fire Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe. Some people believe that the Avatar was never reborn into the Air Nomads, and that the cycle is broken. But I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow, the Avatar will return to save the world.

[Series Opening]

Water. Earth. Fire. Air.

Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, an airbender named Aang, and although his airbending skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Aang can save the world.

When would a researcher be most likely to observe resource partitioning? between two allopatric populations that eat the same th
rewona [7]
<span>The answer is ‘two sympatric species that eat similar-sized seeds’. Sympatric <span>speciations occur when a species population diverges without a physical barrier. Resources partitioning could occur when individuals in a population compete for same resources. Some individuals in that population may begin to utilize different resources to minimize the competition (and avoid being competitively excluded from the population).  Over time, this results in a divergence of the populations that utilize different resources hence carving out different niches. </span></span>
