The correct answers are:

The urbanization predicts the building of lot of infrastructure, big portion of which is with concrete and asphalt, thus significantly increasing the paved surfaces.

- increased soil erosion;

Because of the aforementioned clearing of the forests and grasslands, the soil loses its natural protection from erosion, so the soil that is left like that on the open will be very vulnerable to the erosion.
