<span>Urban development results in decreased forest land, increased paved surfaces, and increase soil erosion.</span>
Rashid [163]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answers are:

- decreased forest land;

In order for the urbanization to take place, the natural areas, usually forests and grasslands, need to be cleared. With the clearing out of them, the forests and grasslands are decreasing as they have been ruined and occupied with infrastructure.

- increased paved surfaces;

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.

Supernovas occur when____forms in a stars core
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Fusion

Explanation:

Supernova Definition:

The supernova occurs after fusion begins to pile up iron in the high-mass star's core. Because iron fusion cannot release energy, the core cannot hold off the crush of gravity for long. In the instant that gravity overcomes degeneracy pressure, the core collapses and the star explodes.

Fun Fact!

Approximately one supernova occurs every second. Supernova happens more often than you might think: One occurs somewhere in the universe every second!
