skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

D. It completely removes any available topsoil.​

Explanation:

Open pit mining strips off the top layer of the soil in order to access near surface mineral deposits. Most near surface deposits are usually rock aggregates, coal, copper etc.

In order, to access these minerals, large amount of earth must be removed by earth moving machines.

Open pit mining greatly unsettles the ecosystem in mining regions and it leaves the surface bare and not suitable for agricultural activities.

Maru [420]

Fewer species that are not from the island will invade because the distance from the mainland is greater. The threat of extinction due to this is low. The small island also has a lower capacity for different species due to limited resources. This would mean that there are simply fewer species to go extinct.

Answer: B. International migration and voluntary migration: Family A from Mumbai has convinced their close friends Family B to emigrate to London as they did in order to help start up their business.

Currently, migration is classified as voluntary or forced migration and internal or international migration.

  • Voluntary migration consists of voluntary internal or international displacement, permanent or temporary, to seek better economic opportunities.
  • Forced migration occurs when the displacement is carried out against the will, due to situations of violence, natural disaster or eviction.
  • Internal migration is what occurs within the same territory, for example from rural to urban areas.
  • International migration consists of movements from the country of origin to another country.

In this case, Family A convinces Family B to make an international migration (from India to England) voluntarily (To establish a business).
