Answer: An erosion of soil which enters waterways

Explanation:

Acidic water is more poisonous to human, animal and plant life so if acidic water were to wash into a river that humans drink, the health risks posed to those humans would increase.

If there were plants and animals connected to the river, the risks to them would increase as well and disrupt their life cycle.

Acidic water does not make water more or less capable of soil erosion so the water being acidic would not contribute to soil erosion.

Two stars, Star 1 and Star 2, are at almost equal distances from Earth. The table below shows the masses of the two stars.
Harman [31]
Which of these statements is most likely correct about the stars?


Star 2 attracts Star 1 with a greater gravitational force than Star 1 attracts Star 2.

No, because Third Newton Law states that both forces are equal in magnitude.

Earth exerts almost equal gravitation force on both the stars.

No, because the Universal Gravitational Law, estblished by Newton, states the atraction force to two masses is proportional to the product of the masses.

Star 1 attracts Star 2 with a greater gravitational force than Star 2 attracts Star 1.

No (same reason for the first statement)

Earth exerts greater gravitation force on Star 2 than on Star 1.

Right. This is the correct statement. Given the mass of Star 2 is greater than the mass of Star 1, by the Universal Gravitational Law, the earth exerts greater gravitational attraction on Star 2.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Non point sources

Explanation:

A point source is usually a single known source of a pollution such as emission of toxic fluids from a company directly into water bodies.

Runoff of eroded soil and chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides from cropland, feedlots, logged forests, urban streets, parking lots, lawns, and golf courses are examples of non point sources as there is no main known source of the pollution.

mr_godi [17]
Endemic diseases result in a decreasing population, so with that said you can rule out choices B and D. 

Among the two left, letter A is the most appropriate answer. Not all endemic diseases have an effect on the number of children a population will have. So if we are speaking about endemic diseases in general, the answer is:

A. Endemic diseases can result in decreasing population numbers: many people die form diseases, and others move away from or avoid moving to places where diseases are rampant.
