Explain the two ways the atmosphere protects the Earth ​

Geography
1 answer:
jeyben [28]3 years ago
4 0

The first way that the atmosphere protects Earth is that it acts like a blanket on the Earth trapping the heat inside to make sure the planets is warm enough to sustain life. The atmosphere also though, shields the Earth from the Sun's harsh rays. The second way the atmosphere protects Earth is because it provides oxygen for people to breathe AND carbon dioxide for the plants. Then through the water cycle, living organisms can receive water.

Give three examples of natural resources found in Latin America. Explain which industries use these natural resources
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

There are many natural resources found in Latin

America that can be used for industry. Three examples of these resources are fertile soil, minerals, and the Amazon Rainforest. Fertile soil can be used in farming and ranching industries. Farmers can grow important cash crops, such as coffee, soybeans, and tropical fruits. Ranchers can use the land to raise and breed cattle, one of the leading industries in Brazil. Though these are important industries in Latin America, if people can create environment challenges to the soil if they are not careful. Possible challenges include soil exhaustion, erosion, deforestation, and water contamination from pesticides. A large supply of minerals has led to the development of the mining industry, which is very important to countries like Chile, Colombia, Argentina, and Peru. Though mining creates economic stability, it also creates environmental challenges! Issues such as water pollution (with toxins like mercury and bauxite) and air pollution (from heavy machinery) are common. The Amazon Rainforest itself is an amazing natural resource that allows for industries like mining, farming, ranching, and logging. However, if left unchecked, these industries can create environmental challenges such as deforestation, water contamination, air pollution, and the extinction of plant and animal species.
