Answer:
B. local water contamination
D. destruction of ecosystems
Explanation:
The mining, be it a surface one or underground one, has several negative impacts on the surrounding area. Two common negative impacts of both types of mining are contamination of the local waters, as well as the destruction of ecosystems.
The waters get heavily polluted with toxic chemicals pretty much always ad everywhere where there is mining. The main reason for this is that the nus-products from the mining are released into the waters. This causes high level pollution of the waters, thus making it not good for anything, and the aquatic life in the waters dies out rapidly.
The fact that the waters are heavily polluted means that everything that comes in touch with them becomes heavily polluted as well. Also, apart from releasing chemicals in the waters, the mining requires space, so the area is cleared out, and after that lot of toxic material is disposed on it. The majority of the plants can sustain that, so they die out, and since they are the basis of the ecosystems, the animals die out as well.
Answer: (A), (B), (C) and (E)
Explanation:
- Coral reefs are found in the oceans formed by the accumulation of the skeletal remains of the invertebrates. They are found under water.
- Cold seeps refers to those area where the gases such as methane, hydrogen sulfide comes out through the vent, under water.
- Hydrothermal vents are the places where the hot intruding magma reacts with the sea water producing a vent.
- Rocky intertidal zone refers to the zone between a high and a low tidal mark.
Thus under the ocean, the structures such as coral reefs, cold seeps and hydrothermal vents forms where the tide is not so high and not so low.
Kelp forest is the odd one, that refers to those brown colored seaweeds, having high nutrients in salt water.
The area of the Balkan countries is frequently plagued by ethnic conflict that generates tension among the nations. This tension has given away to several small conflicts and the trend continued. The location of the Balkans is strategically very important. I hope the answer helps you.
