Question

a large storm destroys the green - belt of an island coastline. what are the consequences of this loss of habitat?
a fast recovery of the coastline ecosystem
beach erosion to the unprotected coastline
a quick redevelopment of the green - belt
an expansion of beach vegetation
question 2 (multiple choice worth 3 points)
(04.04 mc)
the government wants to set new regulations that prohibit chlorofluorocarbons (cfcs) use in aerosol sprays and refrigerants. how will this act help with the sustainability of our environment?
it will slow the degradation of the ozone layer.
it will decrease the use of fossil fuels.
it will increase the costs of aerosol sprays and refrigerants.
it will increase ultraviolet light needed for vegetation.

Explanation:

For the first question, the green - belt protects the coastline from erosion. Without it, beach erosion is likely. For the second question, CFCs are known to deplete the ozone layer. Banning them will slow down ozone - layer degradation.

Answer:

1. B. Beach erosion to the unprotected coastline
2. A. It will slow the degradation of the ozone layer.
