The correct answer is - B) frost wedging.

In the middle latitudes, the mountains, especially the higher ones, experience lots of snow and ice during few months of the year. The ice is well known for its weathering abilities, and this is because it expands, so it creates a lot of pressure on the body in which the ice is, thus breaks it over time, and contributing to the weathering process in a mechanical manner.

The epidemiologic transition is characterized by?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The epidemiological transition has two stages:

- First, the high mortality caused by infectious diseases and malnutrition;

- The second is characterized by chronic degenerative diseases.

Explanation:

Epidemiological transition is understood as the long-term changes in the patterns of death, disease and disability that characterize a specific population and that usually occur along with broader demographic, social and economic transformations.

It is a dynamic concept that focuses on the evolution of the predominant profile of mortality and morbidity, specifically the epidemiological transition implies a change in the predominant direction: of infectious diseases associated with primary deficiencies (for example, nutrition, water supply, housing conditions) to chronic and degenerative diseases, injuries and mental illnesses, all these related to genetic factors and secondary deficiencies (for example, personal or environmental security effect of opportunities for the full realization of individual potentiality)

The epidemiological transition covers three basic processes:

a) Substitution between the first causes of death of common infectious diseases by noncommunicable diseases and injuries.

b) The displacement of the greatest burden of morbidity and mortality from the youngest groups to the elderly.

c) Changes from a situation of predominance of mortality in the epidemiological landscape to another in which morbidity is dominant.
