The correct answer is - A. land to sink.

Mexico City is a huge city, the second biggest in the world in fact, and it is a city that has been built over the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan. The problem is that it is actually built over a drained lake. Because relatively recently there was a lake present in that area, the soil is very soft and labile, and there's lots of groundwater reserves bellow it. By taking out the water of the groundwater reserves, big spaces are opening up inside the ground, and the soft sediments from above can not sustain the weight on top of them, so the land starts to sink.

What stratigies can you use to reduce your electricity bill? How much money could you save?If possible, discuss your ideas with
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

A simple thing you can do is use less electricity. For example, people use electricity for light a lot and they can reduce that by just not using it in certain times like in the day time, they can open their windows for sun light and turn the lights on in night time. People also use too much electricity on gadgets and electronics and they can reduce that by just not charging them too often and using them a bit less. By doing these methods you can maybe save around 10$ to 100$ or even more.
