Which of the following statements best describe why the Dead Sea's water levels are decreasing?

I. The dry climate encourages the water to evaporate. II. The Dead Sea is the final destination for the water of the Jordan River; there is no outlet. III. The extraction of numerous minerals has left the sea at risk of shrinking. IV. More water is being siphoned off the Jordan River for agriculture. A. I. and II. B. II., III., and IV. C. I. and IV. D. II. and III.

Answer : More Water is being siphoned off the Jordan River for agriculture and The dry climate encourages the water to evaporate ( C )  

Explanation:

The dry climate encourages the evaporation of water but compared to the rate at which the level of the dead sea is decreasing this is not the only  major contributor to it, The dead sea is connected the River Jordan and it gets most of its water from River Jordan hence the More water is being siphoned from the River the lower the supply and the lower the Dead sea's water.

The extraction of numerous minerals from the the dead sea doesn't affect the water levels but contributes to the inability of water organisms to survive in it because of mineral spillage that might occur .

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

5 reasons on why the Declaration of Independence was the most influential turning point in American history.

Explanation:

1-The Declaration of Independence signaled the formal beginning of the Revolutionary War, with the Thirteen Colonies separating from Britain.

2- This was the "first" major document that the colonies made together which was their first major step towards being a free country that was separate from Great Britain (England).

3- Because of the signing of this document other countries such as France now saw the colonies as a separate country from England and therefore aided the colonies during the Revolutionary War.

4- Many laws that were attempted to be put in place were n longer valid and were not enforced. These laws included the Sugar Act (1764), the Stamp Tax (1765), the Townshend Acts (1767), and the Tea Act (1773).

5- The Quartering Act (1765), which forced colonists to help pay for the British military stationed in the colonies, was no longer a thing as the colonists now were helping to aid their side of the war.
