Answer:

The correct answer is D. The state of Montana is about the size of the area of the  Amazon that was cleared between 1990 and 2010.

Explanation:

Deforestation is the main problem that threatens the ecological stability of the Amazon jungle, generating through the reduction of forest land contamination, extinction of native species, alteration of ecosystems and many other damages to the environment.

It is calculated that more than 18,000 square kilometers of jungle are cut or burned annually, which, projected over 20 years, gives more than 360,000 square kilometers in which the Amazon jungle has been reduced due to human action. This amount of territory can be compared with the extension of the state of Montana, which has an area that exceeds 380,000 square kilometers.
