Answer:
1. Across the world, mining contributes to erosion, sinkholes, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, significant use of water resources, dammed rivers and ponded waters, wastewater disposal issues, acid mine drainage and contamination of soil, ground and surface water, all of which can lead to health issues in local.. 2.Mining in the real world can affect society, ecosystems, and the environment of a specific region because all the minerals that you are looking for won't be right where you want them to be. It is not going to be in the same area. Instead, it will be scattered throughout the mines and you will have to search for them. 3.Students act as mining engineers and simulate ore mining production by using chocolate chip cookies. They focus on the cost-benefit analysis of the chocolate ore production throughout the simulation, which helps them understand the cost of production. As students “mine” with tools such as paperclips and toothpicks, they keep records of their costs—land (cookie), equipment used, cookie size before and after production, and time spent. While the goal is to make as much profit as possible, other costs and goals are taken into consideration—as in real-world mining engineering. For example, mining engineers also consider the resulting amount of destruction to the lithosphere when deciding the best method to obtain ore. Thus, a line item for land reclamation cost is included from the beginning. A provided worksheet serves as a profit and loss statement. 4.Mine reclamation is the process of restoring land that has been mined to a natural or economically usable state. Although the process of mine reclamation occurs once mining is completed, the planning of mine reclamation activities occurs prior to a mine being permitted or started.
Explanation:
i don't have a explanation but i hope this helps
Answer:
A or/and D
Explanation:
Environmental science is the study of how organisms interact with their environment so it can be either a or d. I would say a combination of both.
Answer:
All are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :
d. Warm air is less dense than cool air so it tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface.
Explanation:
- When gases heat up, their volume increases and density decrease.
- A decrease in density causes a substance to become lighter.
- Thus, when air warms up due to heat from the sun its density decreases and it gets lighter.
- So, it will move up.
- The Cooler air in turn is denser and heavier so it will sink towards the Earth's surface.
- Hence, the statement d , which states that 'warm air is less dense than cool air so in tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface' is FALSE.
Answer:
D. Artificial Selection.
Explanation:
Normal people can't breed cats by modifying their DNA, so options b and c are eliminated. Breeding cats for specific traits is not natural, so it is not choice a, either. Instead, selective breeding is d. artificial selection.
Hope this helps!
