Which of the following human activities can increase the risks of flooding?

Deforestation and Cultivation

Explanation:

First I am going to give the definition of deforestation:

Deforestation is basically the removal of trees.

The removal of trees leaves leaves very little vegetative cover to hold heavy rain fall. This is why mudslides and things happen. When the land is clear and flat, the water keeps on going instead of going into the soil. That water that keeps on going is called runoff water. If we planted trees by the rivers, that could take down the height of the floods in towns by 20%

At first I was going to say widening rivers, but that is a way to manage river water. When we lengthen the river, it is so that the water can take more time to reach the river canal.

Definition of Cultivation: The production of food by preparing the land to grow crops (especially on a large scale) animal husbandry - breeding and caring for farm animals. agriculture, tree farming - the cultivation of tree for the production of timber.

I was also going to say Cultivation. Over-cultivation is the excessive use of farmland to the point where productivity falls due to soil exhaustion or land degradation. Now this is actually why we have floods in the USA. The soil cannot soak up any water, therefore the water over flows and that is when a flood starts to happen.

I know this took some time but hope I could help :)

elements

explanation:

yes the other ones are right just show me a pic of ur face cuz u look hot

the positions which points up in upward carbon and down in downward carbon are axial

and vice versa holds true for equatorial positions

so the correct answer with labelled diagram will be
