Which best describes how storm water runoff pollutes Puget Sound?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Rain washes pollutants off streets and into storm drains, which drain into Puget Sound.

Explanation:

"Puget Sound" is a Pacific Ocean inlet that is located in Washington's northwestern coast. It is said that the name "Puget Sound" was given by George Vancouver in<em> 1792,</em> in honor of a lieutenant, Peter Puget, who was very helpful in guiding him through his expedition.

Puget Sound is home to many marine species, such as salmon, Pacific rods, harbor seals, Pacific herring and the like. However, some of these, like the <em>"Olympia oysters,"</em> have been depleted because of human activities. The recession of many species in this area has been increasing over time. It is said that the inlet was contaminated with radioactive water in 1978, when a submarine accidentally released the radioactive water into Puget Sounds.

Another reason for its buildup of pollution is through the <u>"storm water's run-off." </u>When a storm comes, it hits infrastructure's roofs and other surfaces or pollutants. The debris are carried into the drains by rain and are then drained further into Puget Sound.

The toxic chemicals that are carried primarily comes from the roofing materials or human's everyday products.

Explain how scale is used on a map and why it is an important tool
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Scale on a map is important in order to give the map reader a sense of size. Maps are just about always smaller than what they really represent, and scale is a way of quantifying how much smaller they are.

First, find yourself a map. Then, using two points, find both the distance on the map and the true distance. Next, you divide the true distance by the measured map distance, and find your scale. Last, you need to place that ratio onto your map.
