Sinkholes one major environmental risk of underground mining because, Underground mines may collapse after mining is complete, which causes sinkholes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The movement that occurs on the surface of the ground is known as mine subsidence. This is mainly caused due to the collapse that happens in the cola or any clay mining works that occurs in the underground surface. When anything is extracted form the underground surface, some holes are made in the underground surface which are sinkholes.

The damages that are caused as a result of this can be claimed by  Mine Subsidence Insurance Policy. This type of underground mining is very dangerous as it give rise to the formation of sinkholes.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Option B, ionic bonds; salt

Explanation:

All medicines either in the form of pills or liquid interact with our body by forming a bond with target specific receptors. For instance if a pain killer is taken then it shall form bond with receptors produced by pain and inflammation

So medicines are basically chemical which interact with biomolecules such as enzymes, nucleic acid, hormones, ions etc. by forming ionic bond, hydrogen bond, van der wall force etc. in the active site of enzyme.    

These salt molecule remain stable in normal conditions but as they come in contact with digestive system of the body (with different pH) they release the drugs

Hence, option B is correct
