higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure. Lower pressure
in turn causes water to evaporate more quickly, and water actually
boils at a lower temperature. The percentage of oxygen in the air at two
miles (3.2 km.) is the same as at sea level (21%). However, the air
pressure is 30% lower at the higher altitude due to the fact that the
atmosphere is less dense--that is, the air molecules are farther apart.
The important effect of this decrease in pressure is this: in a given
volume of air, there are fewer molecules present. This is really just
another way of saying that the pressure is lower. This is called Boyle's
law.</span>
Liquid water is not a mineral
Hi!
There are many causes related to the depletion of rain forests. One would be fires. Another would be trees being cut down almost every year. The main destruction cause would be us humans.
A possible solution for stopping the depletion of rain forests would most probably be to make sure that the animals, plants, and the rain forest itself is healthy. If it is not, there may be serious trouble. Another solution would probably be for us humans to leave the rain forests alone. Alot of fires are caused by us, and chopping down the trees of the rain forest kills the animals, plants, and of course the trees in that rain forest, causing the rain forest to eventually deplete.
Hope this helps, have a wonderful day/night! :)
