Answer:

YES, the positive feedback leads to the instability and the negative feedback leads to the stability.

Explanation:

  • The melting of the glacier ice is an example of the negative feedback as it being a balance in the amount of the ice and the temperature extremes and therefore is a proper way to check the ice cover and thus he arctic ocean will be balanced by the absorption of the sun heat and the leads to the reduction in the temperatures in the nearby lands.

Identify and describe the environmental impact of development on the amazon basin.​
Nadya [2.5K]

The Amazon Basin is located in brazil. For centuries, this has protected the area, people, and the animals residing in it. Forest recession has occurred in the past 30 years due to increased industry and population growth through road projects, settlement initiatives, and industrial development.

The Amazon Basin includes a diversity of traditional inhabitants as well as biodiversity in both flora and fauna. These peoples have lived in the rain forest for thousands of years, and their lifestyles and cultures are well-adapted to this environment. Contrary to popular belief, their subsistence living methods do not significantly harm the environment. In the past few decades, the real threat to the Amazon Basin has been deforestation, poaching, and cattle ranching by transnational corporations.

Oil and gas development often also takes a heavy toll on the environment and local people; especially in rainforest areas where it can cause displacement of local people, air and water pollution, and construction of roads that open previously inaccessible areas to deforestation.

That said, even a new NASA study shows that over the last 20 years, the atmosphere above the Amazon Basin has been drying out, increasing the demand for water and leaving ecosystems vulnerable to fires and drought. It also shows that this increase in dryness is primarily the result of human activities.

Summary: all impacts caused by human development in the Amazon Basin is causing the atmosphere to go bad, the crops and indigenous plants to die at alarming rates, the water to be polluted, and the animals and humans who are indigenous of the area suffer the consequences.

eduard

Answer:

Quartz is not pure in this rock.

Explanation:

When quartz shows effervescence in contact with an acid, it means that it is not in its pure state, but rather related to other substances that may be cementing the quartz. This effectiveness is caused by substances that do not react like quartz, such as calcite.

In this case, we can conclude that in relation to the calcium-rich rock shown in the question above, the calcium is not pure, but it is likely to be related to calcite, or other material that does not react to acid.
