<h3>Two human developments that would increase the risk of people being affected by natural hazards:</h3>
<u>Development of Refineries:</u>
- Refineries burn fossil fuel, which results in a great release of toxic substances into the atmosphere.
- This is referred to as air pollution. These wastes are classified as CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons) they attack the molecules of ozone in the atmosphere, which releases much oxygen to the earth, but leaving less and less ozone molecules which protect the earth from direct effects of the sunlight.
- These effects include increase in temperature which negatively affects the ice that is stored in the North and South region of the earth
<u>Development of rural areas</u>
- This is a subtle means of natural hazard, because during urbanization, many species of plants and even some animals are destroyed.
- It is a natural hazard, because these plants or animals might prevent some certain things from happening.
- For example, grasses stops water erosion, trees serve as wind breaks to prevent wind from becoming sand storms
Answer:
Explanation:
a.Minerals are valuable natural resources being finite and non-renewable. They constitute the vital raw materials for many basic industries and are a major resource for development. ... Since independence, there has been a pronounced growth in the mineral production both in terms of quantity and value.
b.Flowing water picks up soil particles, and carries them along until the flow ebbs and the particles sink to the bottom. ... Anything that reduces the energy of the flow field can cause larger particles to drop below the critical Reynolds number and drop out of the fluid stream (deposition)
c.Afforestation prevents soil erosion because trees grow very large, very strong roots that take hold in soil and prevent it from washing away or being...
Answer:
It leads to greater stability
Explanation:
If we have more animals and species it balances out our ecosystems.
It makes sure we don't have too much or too little of something, Its called biodiversity and overall it just helps us.
<u>Answer</u>:
Delta, Forest, Plateau and stream are the natural regions.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Delta is the old stage of the running water landforms which is created at the mouth of the river. Forest is a group of trees formed in densely manner and Plateau is the landform which took several milion years to form. Stream is the running water system which originates from the glacial or mountain. Denver is one of the cities in the Colorado state and Georgia is a state in USA which is created by man made activities. North America comes under the category which is delineated by the humans.
The lower strengths species B, the outcome failure
The more prominent strengths of species A will have, the outcome succeeds
