Answer:
From the statements mentioned about Convergent Boudaries we can select the following as true.
- Convergent boundaries are where two plates move toward each other. By definition this statement is true.
- New oceanic plate (oceanic lithosphere) is created at convergent boundaries. True, a new oceanic plate can form from the action of convergent boundaries at midocean, lava and million of years do the remaining job.
- Convergent boundaries that have subduction occurring provide a "pull" force that contributes to plate motion. False, Subducting melt and ascend trough the rock creating a volcanic eruption cone and producing an island chain.
- Oceanic plates can be destroyed at convergent boundaries due to subduction. False, The older plate will subduct due to its density and it is forced deep into the mantle, it will melt once the deepth is reached.
The correct answer is - deforestation.
Deforestation is a huge issue when it comes to soil erosion. When there's thicker vegetation the soil is in place and the erosion is minimal. This is due to the root systems of the trees, bushes, grashes, that are making a natural net inside the soil that holds it in place and doesn't allow the soil to be moved away and thus erosion to take place. But when we have a deforested landscape than the situation is the total opposite. The soil is left on its own and it doesn't have any protection from the root systems to keep in place, so with every rain it is eroding slowly and occasionally quickly when there's heavy rainfall. Most of the erosion takes place on the steeper parts.
