Question

1. human activity produces pollutants, including chemicals and sewage, which move through the water cycle. when precipitation falls on industrial and farm landscapes, the rainwater picks up pollutants and runs off the surface towards the lake. trees in undeveloped lands anchor the soil, select erosion and select filtration of pollutants from rainwater. in comparing the two areas, a greater amount of runoff would be expected in the select.

Explanation:

Trees in undeveloped lands prevent soil erosion and aid in pollutant - water filtration. Industrial and farm landscapes have less tree cover, so more runoff is expected there.

Answer:

First blank: prevent; Second blank: aid in; Third blank: industrial and farm landscapes
