Based on the data provided in the table below, which human activity is likely to have the lowest impact on water quality in river basins, wetlands, estuaries, and aquifers?

Use of local waters for activities like swimming or fishing

Waste from a chemical manufacturing industry

Surface water runoff from crop fields

A gas that absorbs most of the UV radiation coming from the Sun

A gas that is used in photosynthesis

A gas used to create aerosol cans, like air freshener

The ozone layer is a region in the stratosphere that generally contains between 2 and 8 parts per million of ozone. Even though its concentration is very low compared to nitrogen and oxygen, the ozone in the stratosphere is very important to life on Earth. Why is stratospheric ozone important?

It absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation as it reacts chemically in the atmosphere.

It acts as a blanket to hold heat energy in Earth’s atmosphere.

It reduces the concentration of greenhouse gases in the upper atmosphere.

It regulates the relative concentrations of nitrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere.

Most of the trash in the United States is currently disposed of in one of three ways: Which change would decrease the ecological footprint of a town most?

an increase in recycling and decreases in incineration and landfill use

increases in recycling and incineration and a decrease in landfill use

a decrease in recycling and increases in incineration and landfill use

The graph below shows the correlation between air quality index (AQI) and the incidence of asthma in a densely populated urban area over a five year period. A higher AQI indicates low air quality. Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the graph?

Worsening air quality is associated with an increase is asthma cases.

Improved air quality has led to a decrease in asthma cases

There is no relationship between air quality and asthma incidence

Increasing air pollution has no effect on human health

How do long dry spells and hotter temperatures lead to more wildfires?

These conditions make plants drier, which makes it easier for big fires to start and spread.

Long dry spells and hotter temperatures don't really affect how often wildfires happen.

Ecosystems adapt to handle drought and heat better over time, so there are fewer big fires.

The hotter temperatures actually cause heavy rain events after a drought, which means fewer wildfires.

A study over a 10-year period in a region undergoing deforestation examined changes in water quality and its effects on the local fish population in a river ecosystem. The data table is located below. Based on this data, which of the following conclusions can most accurately be drawn?

Increased deforestation leads to poorer water quality, negatively impacting the diversity of fish species.

Increased deforestation has no significant impact on river ecosystems and diversity of fish species.

Increased deforestation improves the quality of river water, leading to an increase in the number of fish species.

The pH level of river water is unrelated to the turbidity and the number of fish species in the ecosysytem.

What does the term "rural" mean?

City area, like areas with skyscrapers

Industrial area, like areas with factories

Suburban areas, like where neighborhoods are located

How can air pollution have different health impacts on communities living in urban areas compared to those in rural areas?

People living in urban areas might be more exposed to more pollutants from cars and industries, leading to higher rates of respiratory problems.

Air pollution is only a problem in urban areas, not in rural areas.

Rural areas have no air pollution, so there are no health impacts.

Urban areas have more hospitals, so air pollution impacts are less severe there.

What is air pollution?

Contamination of the atmosphere

The percentage of oxygen in the ait

The amount of water vapor in the air
