<u>Answer:</u>

Chemical pollution, open waste dumping, deforestation are some of the most concerning environmental issues in present-day Mexico.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Most industrial waste released out of the factories in Mexico, especially chemical waste, is unadministered and thus pollutes the environment in an irrevocable manner.
  • Open waste dumping is another threat to people's health and to the regional environment. The rate of use of firewood as a fuel in Mexico is terrifying.
  • In cities like Oaxaca in the central Mexico region, a household on an average uses 12kg of firewood to cook food and heat water. This has taken a heavy toll on the forests and has been one of the main reasons behind massive deforestation in the region.
  • Moreover, it is also causing air pollution that is again responsible emergence of serious health hazards.

jekas [21]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

Seismic P and S waves are generated during an earthquake that has the potential to propagate through the interior of the earth. P waves are also known as the primary waves and they move in a compression and extension way in their direction of propagation. S waves are shear waves. This P waves travel faster than the S waves and can travel in both solid as well as in liquid. Whereas the S wave can travel only through solids. They get absorbed when they reach the core-mantle boundary. These two waves are helpful in determining the epicenter of an earthquake by recording the arrival of these waves.

Hence, the correct answer is option (4).
