One way that mining for mineral resources damages land is by?

a. adding greenhouse gases to the environment
b. depleting the world's ozone
c. causing salinization
d. increasing soil erosion

The correct answer is D. Increasing soil erosion

Explanation:

Mining refers to the process of extracting minerals such as coal, chalk, limestone, etc that are usually placed on underground deposits. Because of this, mining often involves excavation, although other methods use substances and chemicals to extract the mineral. In all of this cases, the natural properties of the soil are negatively affected as vegetation is often removed along with multiple soil layers, this leads to soil erosion due to the damage in the soil and the lack of vegetation that make the soi dry and in most case infertile. Therefore, one way mining for mineral resources damages land is by increasing soil erosion.

ans.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
