Surface mining, which is also known as strip mining, is when soil and rock overlaying mineral deposit is removed. It can cause habitat destruction, air pollution from dust particles, soil erosion and pollution. Subsurface mining is removing deposits from the Earth by drilling underneath layers of rock and dirt. To keep the pathways clear, <span>mining companies have to pump out large amounts of water, which go into surface ecosystems. That disrupts the ecosystem by changing the pH conditions of soil and water sources. Placer mining is mining of stream bed deposits for minerals, a way of obtaining minerals and metal resources. Although, because it is small, causes less damage to the surrounding environment it still can disrupt river ecosystems with pollution and sediments.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. Iodine directly helps the thyroid gland to function properly.

Explanation:

Iodine is essential for our thyroid hormones to function properly, and in turn, our body.

Thyroid hormones have vital functions such as regulating energy metabolism and nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates and fats. They also affect tissue growth, especially the nervous; They also participate in the regulation of body temperature.

That is why the adequate supply of iodine contributes to the normal functioning of the thyroid, but if it is excessive it can cause health problems such as hyperthyroidism; and if its contribution is too low, it can cause hypothyroidism or even irreversible consequences if this deficit is severe or occurs, for example, in pregnancy, lactation or first year of life.
