The correct answer is - A. the Amazon Rainforest of South America.

The Amazon rainforest in South America, mostly located on the territory of Brazil, in the northern half of the country, has experienced the biggest deforestation in the world in the two decades between 1990 and 2010.

One of the biggest reasons for this extensive deforestation is that the Amazon is very beneficial for the Brazilian economy, so the country has been using the resources it offers in order to strengthen its economy.

Another reason has been that Brazil thought that it is unfair that the most powerful economies in the world, like the United States for example, have been systematically destroying their forests because of their economic interest, so they have the right to do so since it is in their own territory.

Sunni and Shia Islam are the two major denominations of Islam. The demographic breakdown between the two denominations is difficult to assess and varies by source, but a good approximation is that 85–90% of the world's Muslims are Sunni[1] and 10-15% are Shia,[2][3] with most Shias belonging to the Twelver tradition and the rest divided between many other groups.[2] Sunnis are a majority in most Muslim communities: in Southeast Asia, China, South Asia, Africa, and most of the Arab world.

Light elements like hydrogen and helium form a large percentage of the outer planets and Sun is made up primarily of hydrogen. W
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

<u>Instead of Helium and Hydrogen there are heavier elements in inner planets like Nitrogen and oxygen.</u>

Explanation:

  • As the inner planets like Mercury, Venus and Mars and earth have a solid surface which is separated by the Sharpe atmosphere, and their gravity is too low to hold these light gases.
  • Uranus is primarily composed of gases and ice of which 83% is hydrogen and 15% helium and rest are trace gases. As in the early composition of the atmosphere, the inner planets like the earth had a solid atmosphere composed of solid silicates elements like magnesium, iron, calcium, and potassium.  
  • As the earth has a highly unstable atmosphere only carbon, nitrogen and oxygen combined in lightning occur. And planet mercury has no atmosphere thus gravity is too low to hold any gas.
