Describe the problems caused by water scarcity in the Middle East. What are some of the strategies the region has taken to deal
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The problems that the Middle East faces because of water scarcity are that the population is concentrated in very small areas, agriculture is on a low level, and the population growth is limited. Some of the strategies used for this problem are strictly controlled water supply, desalinization, and artificial rainfall.

Explanation:

e The Middle East is one of the poorest regions in the world when it comes to water supplies. This has caused numerous problems and even nowadays with the advancements of technology they are hard to solve. Because there are huge areas that don't have any water at all, the populations are usually very concetrated near the very few water supplies. The population growth is limited because there simply isn't enough water for large population growth, and agriculture is only possible in small areas, while it lacks in the majority of the region.

In order to solve some of these problems, the leaders have been coming up with some solutions. Israel has been using technology to produce rainfall, which has had excellent results. The water supply is heavily controlled and no one is allowed to overuse it. The biggest problem, water for drinking, has been solved by using the process of desalinization of the saline water.

Pieces and full petrified logs in a barren area with mountains in the background.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The area was once a forest.

The area was uplifted.

The area was buried in sediment.

The area was probably covered by water.

Petrification of a dead plant or animal organisms occurs when rock mineral displaces the organic elements in the structure of the biotic matter or these minerals seep in between the spaces and pores within the dead plant or organism and become part of the material.

Explanation:

Petrification occurs under high pressure. This is why this process occurs in the crust after layers of sediments create enough pressure on the dead organic matter buried in with the sediments. This phenomenon commonly begins on the ocean floor where dead marine life sinks to the bottom and is buried by sediments over many years.  

Occasionally, tectonic plate forces uplift these petrified fossils from deep in the crust exposing them on the surface like in this case.
