Removing ground water in Mexico City is a problem because it causes __________.

Geography

k0ka [10]3 years ago

The correct answer is - a. land to sink.

Mexico City is a very city, it is fact the second largest city in the world. It's sheer size means that all the things built by the people are putting a lot of pressure on the land itself.

Considering the fact that Mexico City is built on a place where until relatively recently there was a lake is a big concern. The soil is very soft for starters, and also there's lot of groundwater reserves very close to the surface. By removing the groundwater, big gaps, empty spaces, inside the ground, and close to the surface, are opening. The soft sediments are not able to sustain the pressure, so the land is sinking.

When two different air masses collide a ——— is formed. Boundary. Front. Zone. Wall
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Front

Explanation:

When two air masses collide, a front is formed. The two most common types of fronts are cold fronts and warm fronts.

Cold fronts are formed by the advance of cold continental polar or continental arctic air towards the south. The colder air wedges underneath the warmer air mass to the south and causes it to rise, forming a storm front.

A warm front is the pushing action done by an advancing mass of maritime tropical warm and moist air that pushes a colder air mass out of the way by rising on top of it gradually and moving it away slowly. This causes an extensive cloud front of light rains.
