The drawing of the boundaries in the manner of the interest of the European colonial powers resulted in very big problems once the African countries were granted independence.

The problems were mostly because people from the same ethnic groups were separated by borders, but were in the same ones with people from other ethnic groups, usually historical rivals with whom they had bad relations. Also, the religious factor had a big influence, as there were multiple countries were some parts were predominantly of one religion, and other parts of other religion, and that brought in even more tensions.

That has resulted in instability, constant tensions, civil wars, terrorist organizations, separatist movements, genocides, pretty much everything that is not supposed to happen for a country to prosper.

Excessive fertilizer use on farm land can increase nitrogen and phosphorus levels in water from runoff and decrease dissolved ox
garri49 [273]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Eutrophication is a natural phenomena, in this the fertilizers which are rich in concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus due to the effect of surface runoff get deposited in the nearby water body such as river, lake, pond and others.  These fertilizers facilitate the growth of aquatic plants in the water body. The excess growth of plants reduces the oxygen content of the water body, which results in decline in the population of aquatic animals and foul smell in water.
