Answer:

All issues are related to each other.

Explanation:

  • Environmental issues like Biodiversity and genetic modification related to the alterations in the genetic makeup of species richness on earth. Biodiversity today faces a challenging situation where the loss of habitats and modification of the environment takes place that leads the species to adapt fast to the next environment. Either by natural selection or genetic drift.  
  • Deforestation is the complete removal or clearance of forest land by man for construction or development purposes, which leads to the development of desertic conditions over the natural landscape as trees hold the soil by roots from getting blown away.
  • Global warming and ozone layer depletion, both causes of man-made anthropogenic wastes and harmful gases that warm and destroy the upper atmosphere and raise the temperature of the world's oceans and water levels.

How can scientist locate the epicenter of an earthquake
mash [69]

Scientist use triangulation method to locate the epicentre of an earthquake from the data collected from Seismograph.  

<u>Explanation: </u>

The seismic data from three different location is collected to locate the intersect point as the epicentre point to be determined. Each earthquake is recorded in seismogram in different location.

A seismogram is the output from a graph called seismograph, which is used to determine the epicentre of an earthquake. There are two waves namely <em>P-waves or Primary waves and</em> <em>S-waves or secondary waves </em>that are considered while finding the epicentre of an earthquake.  

With the seismogram, P-waves appears first before S-waves, since they travel faster through three states of matter. Thus, data from seismograph is used for locating “epicentre of an earthquake”.

1) What is meant by the "partition" of India in 1947?
kogti [31]
The partition of India is the split of India and the creation of Pakistan, splitting the border, which was made by Radcliffe Line, who disregarded any ethnic or religious differences along the border. This occurred right before the British stepped out of control of India. It occurred because of religious conflict between Hindus and Muslims in India, because of the tension created by the Muslim Mughal Empire. Gandhi opposed the partition.
