Answer: The process of reducing or removing minerals from water is called desalination.

Explanation:

The most commonly involved in this process is seawater, which by its nature contains large amounts of salt. This process makes it possible to remove salt from the water and obtain drinking water. The coastal and island regions often have great difficulty in supplying drinking and process water. As a result, permanent or occasional shortages of water and all the resulting consequences are becoming increasingly frequent.

Furthermore, in the future, due to a possible lack of water, this process could be crucial in supplying humanity with drinking water. Today, some countries (such as Saudi Arabia) that have a water scarcity problem are actively using this technique to supplement the required quantities of water.

Explain how scientists use seismic data to learn about the geologic activity and happenings in the earth's interior
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

In physics, we know that waves usually change direction when are refracted or when they penetrate layers with different densities.

Therefore, when a seismic wave penetrates penetrates the boundary of the earth's interior, part of it will be sent back and part will be transmitted into the medium as refraction occurs. When we record the reflected and refracted ray, it enables the calculation of the position of major boundaries in the Earth's interior. This also helps in providing information about the solid & liquid character as well physical properties of the various layers in the medium.

GEOMETRY<br> Help me please!!!!
azamat

Answer:

x = 10

y = 6

Explanation:

If ∆ABC is congruent to ∆GEF, therefore their corresponding side lengths would be equal to each other. Thus:

x - 8 = 2 (corresponding sides of both triangles are equal)

Add 8 to both sides

x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8

x = 10

Also:

x - y = 4 (corresponding sides of both triangles are equal)

Plug in the value of x

10 - y = 4

10 - y - 10 = 4 - 10

-y = 4 - 10

-y = -6

-y/-1 = -6/-1

y = 6

Describe three ways geographic knowledge or tools are used in professions other than geography
zloy xaker [14]

In the medical field the basic ideas of geospatial technology can be applied. Similar to a GPS, doctors have tools to provide pinpoint measurements of information via remote sensing applications such as X-Rays and other body scans. The GIS then can be applied to take the data along with other forms of information to apply a layering of all the information to produce statistical reports. These reports are then analyzed to form a diagnosis and then determine a predictive measurement for a positive effect.
