Pump jacks use upward force and pressure to slowly move oil up a drill shaft. Which statement best describes an environmental consequence of this process? O Soil is removed by the force and pressure of the drilling process.

High salinity of wastewater reduces soil fertility and growth of vegetation.

Wastewater is contaminated with oil and becomes sludge in landfills.

O Heavy metals are released into surrounding soil, poisoning local vegetation.

The main consequence of this process is that the soil is removed by the force and pressure of the drilling.

For the extraction of oil from the land, the vegetation is removed that destroys the habitat of many organisms as well as the degradation of soil occurs due to the force and pressure of the drilling machines.

In water, the aquatic organisms including plants and animals are adversely affected due to this process of extraction so we can learn that there are many consequences of extracting oil from the soil to the surrounding environment..

correct answer choice is "Wastewater is contaminated with oil and becomes sludge in landfills". I just took the test
