The main difference between geography and geology
is that geography is mostly dealing with the physical overall shapes of
the land. Geology is a science that is interested in how the land got
into the shape it did.
Geology is mostly about what the ground is
made up of from a natural perspective. What kind of rocks it contains
and how those rocks or layers of rocks got there.
Geography is
mostly dealing with mapping the extent of landforms, how far rivers are,
how long mountain ranges are, how long the coast line is. This is often
from the perspective of people or culture.

Answer:
Explanation:
Building and business closures for weeks or months reduce water usage, potentially leading to stagnant
water inside building plumbing. This water can become unsafe to drink or otherwise use for domestic or
commercial purposes. For example, optimal growth conditions for undesirable pathogens, such as
Legionella bacteria, can occur when hot water temperatures decrease and disinfectant residuals (e.g.,
chlorine) drop to low levels. Water chemistry changes may also increase corrosion and leaching of
metals, including lead, and may cause the formation of disinfection by-products. Turning on the water
for immediate use after it has been stagnant can pose a risk to public health if not properly managed.
Additionally, turning on water after a prolonged period of non-use could disrupt pipe and plumbing
scales to such an extent that microbial and chemical contaminants could be released into the water.
EPA recommends that building owners and manage
