Answer:

D. M<u>ineralized rocks in the fault zones that bound basins.</u>

Explanation:

  • The geology of Arizona starts with the formation of the Precambrian period. When igneous and metamorphic rocks were overwritten by Yavapai and Mazatzal orogenies in the Proterozoic era.
  • The Grenville orogeny in the east caused Arizona to fill with the sediments filling a shallow sea. The region oscillated between the terrestrial and shallow oceanic conditions during the paleozoic era multicellular life became common.
  • The limestone forming a shallow sea, stare caves and important ore deposits, and marine deposits were common at this period. Arizona thus had extensive mineralization in veins, due to hydrothermal fluids.

Explain how a country can lessen its mortality rate.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

A feature of the reduction in death rates has been the increased excess mortality of males. There have also been big and rapid reductions in death rates in many developing countries, even in the absence of important improvements in living standards. Antibiotics and insecticides have made a major contribution to this movement in the last twenty years. It is unlikely that death rates will fall as rapidly in the next few decades as in the recent past in either developed or developing countries.
