The correct answer is - F (False).

Floodings are mostly caused by natural events and not by human activity. Most of the floodings appear due to have rainfalls when the rivers get much more water that the capacity of their respective riverbed, nice example of this is when the rivers in India are flooding because of the heavy rainfalls brought by the monsoons. Also, another important factor are the melting snows in the mountains in spring, the snow turns into huge amount of water that makes the rivers flood. There's also some interesting and beezar reasons for flooding like the dams of the beavers which partially stop the river flow and contribute to big accumulation of water that is flooding the space before the beaver dam.

<span>Flooding on rivers is caused by human activity rather than natural events.

Answer: FALSE

Natural events can also cause floods. Beaver dams and man-made dams can both cause floods but one is a natural cause and the other is because of human activity.</span>

Give an introduction about hepatitis B along with its symptoms and preventive measures​
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hepatitis B is a viral infection. This infection attacks the liver and is a source of acute and chronic disease. It is transmitted by body fluids like blood, and can also be transmitted by sex if one is infected, or by childbirth by the infected mother. It is also transmitted if people are sharing needles or syringes. So prevention would be done by practicing safe sex, testing ourselves before we have kids, and using clean syringes and needles that nobody used before us. Besides these, there is a vaccination that is safe and works.

Most don't report symptoms when infected. But some can experience illness for several weeks and their skin starts yellowing along with the eyes, urine becomes darker, nausea and fatigue along with vomiting or abdominal pain.
