What is likely to happen if the growth rate of the human population continues to increase? a. more land will become available for nature preserves. b. the rate of land development will increase. c. biodiversity will increase. d. developed land will be converted to wetlands.

Option B

Explanation:

The growth of human population will lead to the increased consumption of land. The human population will need land for the construction of buildings, offices, malls, roads et cetera.

More of the agricultural land will be converted into developed land as the human population will increase. The conversion of agricultural land into offices, buildings, houses is known as land development.

The amount of the developed land will increase as the population of human beings will increase.

d concave shape of wave rock

explanation:

the concave shape of wave rock is a very good evidence that supports the evolution of earth due to chemical weathering. if we talk about structure of   wave rock, studies have estimated that it is around 2.7 billion years old. it also serves as the foundation of evidence that it was the place where australian continent began to form.

how the structure of wave rock was created?

studies suggest that structure of wave rock was created when the surrounded area was started to weather due to which deposition of material started on the part of land which now contains wave rock.

the structure of wave rock is considered to be one of the best-known landforms in australia. at the height of around 15 cm, there can be found flared slopes which formulate the margins of hyden rock. it is now assumed by geologists that wave rock was created by subsurface water-induced weathering and not by glaciers, waves or wind.

due to deposition of material over the period of long time, the wave rock became tougher and tougher due to weathering from surrounding terrain. this makes it a physical evidence that supports   the evolution of earth due to chemical weathering.

hope it !
