Answer:

America is located in the Noerthern and Western Hemispheres

Ok so there are two lines that cut the earth in half, one that goes horizontally called the equator, and one that goes vertically called the prime meridian. the equator divides the world into the northern hemisphere on the top half, and the southern hemisphere on the bottom half. the prime meridian divides the world into the western hemisphere on one side, and the eastern hemisphere on the other. so those two lines kind of make a grid, if you know what i mean. if you look, north america is located on the noethern and western hemisphere, because it is north of the equator, and west of the prime meridian. thank me

Choose three possible pollutants to ground water.
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

  • fertilizer/chemicals
  • oil/gas spills
  • animal feces

Explanation:

  • Fertilizers and chemicals are important contaminants of water and enter ground both directly and indirectly. In the case of Karst landscapes, the contaminated water infiltrates into the groundwater through underground streams or percolation.
  • Oil and gas spills also pose a serious problem for groundwater contamination as they can pollute aquifers near fracking zones and other oil extraction areas.
  • Animal feces are more of a problem in the modern age due to large-scale commercialized animal farms. Unless the waste from these facilities is controlled, it can runoff into fields and rivers and eventually seep into groundwater reserves.
