To graph this inequality, start with an open dot on -2.
We use an open dot because n is
greater than -2 but n is not equal to -2.
Next we draw an arrow to the right
to represent all numbers greater than -2.
I have graphed this inequality below too.
The graph below is my own work.
This should correspond to the first answer choice.
The Amazon Basin is located in brazil. For centuries, this has protected the area, people, and the animals residing in it. Forest recession has occurred in the past 30 years due to increased industry and population growth through road projects, settlement initiatives, and industrial development.
The Amazon Basin includes a diversity of traditional inhabitants as well as biodiversity in both flora and fauna. These peoples have lived in the rain forest for thousands of years, and their lifestyles and cultures are well-adapted to this environment. Contrary to popular belief, their subsistence living methods do not significantly harm the environment. In the past few decades, the real threat to the Amazon Basin has been deforestation, poaching, and cattle ranching by transnational corporations.
Oil and gas development often also takes a heavy toll on the environment and local people; especially in rainforest areas where it can cause displacement of local people, air and water pollution, and construction of roads that open previously inaccessible areas to deforestation.
That said, even a new NASA study shows that over the last 20 years, the atmosphere above the Amazon Basin has been drying out, increasing the demand for water and leaving ecosystems vulnerable to fires and drought. It also shows that this increase in dryness is primarily the result of human activities.
Summary: all impacts caused by human development in the Amazon Basin is causing the atmosphere to go bad, the crops and indigenous plants to die at alarming rates, the water to be polluted, and the animals and humans who are indigenous of the area suffer the consequences.
The correct answer is - Tethys Ocean.
The Tethys Ocean was an ocean that was situated between the European and African continents, through what is now the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, and the northern half of the Indian Ocean. Because of the geologic activities, mainly the movement of the Indian plate towards Asia, and the Alpine orogenesis, the ocean was becoming smaller and smaller, and it started to be divided into smaller pieces, until it totally disappeared. One of the remains of this ocean is the largest lake in the world, the Caspian Lake, often referred to as Caspian Sea, and it can easily be seen that this body of water was once part of a much bigger body of water with saline water, because it itself has saline waters.
