Garth forgot to title these notes he took in science class.

-discover resources
-assess potential for volcanoes and earthquakes
-determine construction project safety
-demonstrate geologic history

garth later copied the title of the notes from a friend. what title did he most likely copy?

a. features of geologic maps
b. the importance of topographic maps
c. the importance of geologic maps
d. features of topographic maps

c. The Importance of Geologic Maps

Explanation:

Geologic maps can be define as the maps which includes the distribution of the different types of rocks and other types of deposits over and under the surface of the earth crust. These can be used to determine the locations of faults and folds found over the surface of earth. These can be useful to study the locations which have been affected by the earthquake, volcanic eruption and other geological calamities. These can be used as a primary source for reference used for the purpose of construction, and land-use planning.

stratosphere: as the altitude increases, the air temperature increases. the stratosphere has a layer of ozone, called the ozone layer. this layer absorbs most of the ultraviolet radiation from sunlight. this results in the stratosphere being warmer.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
