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.

miss Akunina [59]
The answer is (B) beginning in the 1940s, both the United States and Russia lead the way and successfully testing nuclear weapons

U.S. conducted six atomic tests before Russia developed their very first atomic bomb (RDS-1) and tested it on the 29th of August, 1949. Testing these bombs back then for both countries were relatively infrequent because they did not have very many atomic bombs to spare. The Trinity was tested on the 16th of July 1945 and yielded around 20 kilotons. 

Trinity, which was conducted in New Mexico was tested to give an idea of the actual size and the after- effects of a nuclear explosion. Operation first lightning or the RDS-1 also known as Joe 1 in the west was tested on August 29th 1949 and considered this test as the first Soviet nuclear test.
