Answer:
The Amazon rainforest in Brazil lost an area about 12 times the size of New York City from August 2018 through July of this year, according to government data released Monday, which shows that deforestation in the biome has shot up significantly since the election of President Jair Bolsonaro.
The 3,769 square miles of forest cover lost during that period represents a 30 percent increase from the previous year and the highest net loss since 2008.
While there are always multiple direct and indirect drivers of deforestation, the largest contributors in Brazil, by far, are cattle ranching, demand for commodities, and logging (Butler, 2019). Cattle ranching is, as it sounds, the issue of large areas of forest being destroyed for cattle farms. This relates to the demand for commodities, as Brazil is the largest exporter of beef in the world (Yale University, 2015). The other largest commodity in the Brazilian Amazon is soybeans. In fact, Brazil is the largest exporter of soybeans in the world (Simoes et al., 2011). Soybeans require large plots of land in order to be farmed, and this land is obtained largely through deforestation. Lastly, logging, the process of obtaining wood for timber and other uses, is a very large contributor to deforestation.

Answer:
Carbonate sedimentary rocks
Explanation:
Carbonate sedimentary rocks are the rocks that are primarily comprised of carbonate minerals such as calcite or aragonite. They are formed chemically. These rocks are formed when Carbon is initially trapped with the accumulation of sediments over it in association with fossil shells. They are also formed due to the dissolution or precipitation by groundwater, depending upon the temperature, pH and dissolved ions present in the solution.
They are often marked by the presence of karst topography and caves.
Some examples of these rocks are limestone and dolomite.
FN Normal force Perpendicular (i.e. normal) to the surface. Equal to whatever force is needed to prevent the object from falling through the floor. Use the FBD recipe to find FN . FT Tension In direction of the rope or string (away from the object).
