4.05 Quiz: Human Impact on the Environment of South America password

1 answer:

5 0

The human impact in South America can be primarily seen in the destruction of the rainforest and the usage of the grasslands for ranching.

Because big portion of the South American continent is covered with rainforests, the countries are trying to boost their economies by using them, especially because there is lot of high quality, expensive timber for which there's big demand. Also, because of the growing population, more food is needed, so the rainforests are cleared in order to make space for the agriculture.

The grasslands are heavily used for ranching, and instead of them being dominated by wildlife, they are dominated by cattle, and that is disrupting the whole ecosystem.

Zinaida [17]

Mathematics and architecture are related, since, as with other arts, architects use mathematics for several reasons. Apart from the mathematics needed when engineering buildings, architects use geometry: to define the spatial form of a building; from the Pythagoreans of the sixth century BC onwards, to create forms considered harmonious, and thus to lay out buildings and their surroundings according to mathematical, aesthetic and sometimes religious principles; to decorate buildings with mathematical objects such as tessellations; and to meet environmental goals, such as to minimise wind speeds around the bases of tall buildings.

How does Uniformitarianism relate to the disaster at Chernobyl.

Talja [164]

Answer: Exactly the same way since the very begining of our existence?

Explanation: Uniformitarianism suggests that the processes that rule the Earth have always been the same.

The only thing that comes to my mind and that has something to do with the disaster of Chernobyl is that all the radioactive and hazardous activity somehow could have affected the structure of the soil. It´s not pretty clear, but in practical terms, I wouldn´t build another facility on at least 30 miles around Chernobyl or Pripyat.
