Answer

Hi,

The correct answer option is {A}

Explanation

River Yangtze of China has cities lined up along its banks.This means that waste water and other solid waste matter from the cities could be deposited into the river causing water pollution.The industries along the river might release warm water and untreated waste water including harmful chemicals into the river increasing the pollution.In such a case, aquatic life will be at risk and some rare species of fish could die and completely become extinct.

Hope this Helps!

Describe the effect of industrialization on the human population?
Reika [66]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>As the Industrial Revolution was a shift from the agrarian society, people migrated from villages in search of jobs to places where factories were established. This shifting of rural people led to urbanization and increase in the population of towns. The concentration of labour in factories has increased urbanization and the size of settlements, to serve and house the factory workers.</em>

The physical processes on Earth create constant change. These processes—including movement in the tectonic plates in the crust, wind and water erosion, and deposition—shape features on Earth's surface.Lithospheric Processes cause magmatism, mantle dynamics, and faulting, which in turn shape the Earth's ever-changing surface.

The four common Planet Surface Processes are: Cratering, Volcanoes, Erosion, and Weathering (chemical and physical).The Earth's surface is constantly changing through forces in nature. The daily processes of precipitation, wind and land movement result in changes to landforms over a long period of time. Driving forces include erosion, volcanoes and earthquakes.

Lithospheric Processes. Lithospheric Processes cause magmatism, mantle dynamics, and faulting, which in turn shape the Earth's ever-changing surface. ... We also study the high temperature systems in the Earth's interior that produce magmas, drive metamorphism, and create mantle heterogeneity.
