Answer:
Rain washes pollutants off streets and into storm drains, which drain into Puget Sound.
Explanation:
"Puget Sound" is a Pacific Ocean inlet that is located in Washington's northwestern coast. It is said that the name "Puget Sound" was given by George Vancouver in<em> 1792,</em> in honor of a lieutenant, Peter Puget, who was very helpful in guiding him through his expedition.
Puget Sound is home to many marine species, such as salmon, Pacific rods, harbor seals, Pacific herring and the like. However, some of these, like the <em>"Olympia oysters,"</em> have been depleted because of human activities. The recession of many species in this area has been increasing over time. It is said that the inlet was contaminated with radioactive water in 1978, when a submarine accidentally released the radioactive water into Puget Sounds.
Another reason for its buildup of pollution is through the <u>"storm water's run-off." </u>When a storm comes, it hits infrastructure's roofs and other surfaces or pollutants. The debris are carried into the drains by rain and are then drained further into Puget Sound.
The toxic chemicals that are carried primarily comes from the roofing materials or human's everyday products.

Decomposer and scavengers
The principle of uniformitarianism states that geologic processes that we observe today occurred in the same way in the past. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option. Incidents such as floods, hurricanes and huge storms have not occurred only in the present time, but it has been occurring in the past as well.
This is true false to the climates and land
