Which of the following is considered the most important and yet most threatened ecosystem on the planet? coastal wetlands rainfo
Artyom0805 [142]

The answer is rainforests. The destruction of rainforests can lead to global warming due to the accumulation of carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. This is because rainforests are major carbon sinks because they sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. One of the major rainforests that are facing the threat of human activities is the Amazon and Congo forests.


The answer is south america’s location atop the Nazca and South American plates of the circum-pacific belt. The circum-pacific belt is also known as the ‘ring of fire’ because there is a subduction zone in the region. The Cocos plate is subducting under the Caribbean Plate. This creates friction between the two plates with occasional release of high amounts of energies when a stuck region gets unstuck abruptly. This region accounts for approximately 90% of the world’s earthquakes.

Why does sedimentation continue to fill the basins, albeit typically rather slowly, during the post-rift phase?
Bond [772]

Answer:

Subsidence is so slow that there seems to have been no depression of the upper surface of the lithosphere, so depositional environments are mostly the

same as those in surrounding areas; the succession is just thicker. These

successions are also more complete, however—there are fewer and smaller

diastems—so at times the basin must have remained under water while surrounding areas were emergent. (A diastem is a brief interruption in

sedimentation, with little or no erosion before sedimentation resumes.)

Size, shape: rounded, equidimensional, hundreds of kilometers across

Sediment fill: shallow-water cratonal sediments (carbonates, shales, sandstones),

thicker and more complete than in adjacent areas of the craton but still

relatively thin, hundreds of meters.

Hopefully that helps!
