Answer: The answer is natural selection

Explanation:

Natural selection explains how certain desirable traits like;

- shape of the beaks of Darwin's finches: to help them feed more easily

- industrial melanism to raise a population of dark-coloured organisms to evolve from pre-existing light coloured ones in industrial areas where the surrondings are blackened with soot;

are favored over LESS DESIRABLE TRAITS, resulting in organisms that are most suited/adapted to thrive in an environment, which is evolutionary change

What was a mining process that removed large quantities of earth.
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Open-cast mining

Explanation:

The aftermath of open cast mining are pits (called quarries) on the surface of the earth where the surface soil has been removed/ displaced to access the mineral deposits that are just close or at the surface of the earth. This type of mining results in environmental degradation because they disturb the biodiversity of the ecosystem in which the mining is taking place. Rehabilitation of the area is required after the mining has been exhausted to restore the initial environment.
