<u>Answer:</u>

Granite is an igneous rock that is composed of four minerals. These minerals include quartz, feldspar, mica, and hornblende. Granite is formed from the solidified silicic magma. This happens within the Earth’s crust. It can be exhumed, i.e. it is brought closer to the surface. This is done via extensive erosion of the rock layers that are present above the granite through the process of faulting. Once the granite is exposed, it is subjected to the usual weathering and erosion, and this links it to the sedimentary part of the rock cycle.

What involves the introduction into the ocean by humans of substances or energy that changes the quality of the water or affects
never [62]

Marine Pollution involves the introduction into the ocean by humans of substances or energy that changes the quality of the water or affects the physical, chemical, or biological environment.

Chemicals and debris, the majority of which originates on land and is dumped or blown into the water, make up marine pollution. The ecology, the health of all living things, and global economic institutions are all harmed by this pollution.

In the modern world, marine pollution is becoming a bigger issue. Chemicals and rubbish are the two main sources of pollution in our ocean.

Chemical contamination, often known as nutrient pollution, is problematic for the environment, human health, and the economy. This kind of pollution happens when human activities, particularly the application of fertiliser on farms, cause chemical runoff into waterways that eventually empty into the ocean.

what is the US policy towards refugees from Haiti? Why do you think it differs from U.S policy toward Cuban refugees?​
vichka [17]

Answer:

The US government's policy towards Haitian refugees is to treat them as economic refugees. The US government's policy towards Cuban refugees is to treat them as political refugees.

Explanation:

Haitian refugees:

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, with a per capita income of about $100 per year. The U.S. government classifies Haitians as "economic" and not "political" refugees. This makes it easier to deport them. The US government has also traditionally been supportive of repressive regimes in Haiti, like Duvalier and his son who were longterm leaders like a family dynasty in Haiti. Another figure of Haitian politics who has sometimes been in favor of the US government, and at times in disfavor is Jean-Bertrand Aristide. It is alleged that the USA orchestrated two coup attempts again Aristide in 1991 and then his forced exile in 2004. The USA plays a more active role in Haitian politics and who assumes power than it does in Cuba.  In 2015, there were reportedly 676,000 Haitian migrants in the United States.

Cuban refugees:

In contrast, Cuban refugees are considered political refugees and the US government does not support the Castro regime nor his brother who was also the President of Cuba after Fidel's death (the President is now Miguel Díaz-Canel).  There is also a substantial and powerful Cuban-American population, especially in the state of Florida. The majority of the 1,172,899 current Cuban exiles living in the United States live in Florida. They can influence politics in the state and also at the federal level because of their power as a community. Most Cuban-Americans are anti-Castro and thus they support the embargo against Cuba.
