The negative effects of geological structures in our environment can be landslides occurring on unfavorably oriented geological structures causing damage and sometimes loss of life on highways and railways, for example.A positive effect of geological structures is that where there are subduction zones, mineral deposits can form above them on the adjoining continents like in British Columbia on the west coast of North America. Also, faults and fractures can allow hydrothermal fluids charged with metals to form ore deposits.

Answer: subduction zone (pro) land sliding (con)


Explanation: The negative effects of geological structures in our environment can include land sliding. As a matter of fact, it is a major problem because it usually occurs in mountainous areas, and when land sliding does occur, it causes major damage and loss of lives as well.

The positive effects of geological structures in our environment can include land subduction zones, where mineral deposits can form above them.

Answer:

Lower the emission of carbondioxide gas and planting more trees.

Explanation:

Lower the emission of carbondioxide gas and planting more trees are the two measures that have been implemented at the national level of countries to ensure the sustainability of coral reefs. Carbondioxide emission is the main reason for the destruction of coral reefs because more carbondioxide emission causes decrease the pH level of ocean. This acidic water of ocean damaged the skeleton of coral reefs and as a result thousands of organisms lost their habitat.

Question 19 (1 point)
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

b) A series of stars that form a figure

Explanation:

In astronomy, <em>a constellation is any of certain groupings of stars that form an imaginary outline or pattern on the celestial sphere. </em>They are useful to track artificial satellites and in assisting astronomers and navigators to locate certain stars, therefore constellation is a series of stars that form a figure. A constellation can't be a region of the celestial sphere and all of the stars in it because not all stars in the celestial sphere form figures.

They are no figures in the night sky because constellations are starts, therefore they are present during day or night, it's not a term applicable to astrology because this is a pseudoscience not based on facts, like astronomy.

I hope you find this interesting and useful! Good luck!
