Which body of water will have a greater influence on an area?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Water from a river is used for many activities in a community. These activities could include (but not limited to) tourism, drinking for animals, local transport, irrigation for nearby farming, recreation (as in swimming), habitat for some living organisms among others. Rivers are not limited by what limits the influence of oceans such as taste (it's saltiness, which cannot be used in farming also) and wave current.

The rate of chemical reactions generally ____ as temperature is raised
Zepler [3.9K]

The rate of chemical reactions generally happen <em>faster</em> when the temperature is raised.

This happens because the reactant's molecules move faster when the temperature is raised. The molecules start to bounce around more, increasing the chance for the reaction to happen, or to increase the speed at which the reaction occurs. Hope this helped.
