How has the removal of wetlands impacted rivers and streams?
a.
it has increased the rate of absorption, causing a decrease in water levels.
b.
it has decreased the rate of absorption, causing greater incidents of flooding.
c.
it has hindered the migration of fish, causing a loss in biodiversity.
d.
wetland removal has had no measurable impact on rivers and streams.

The correct answer is option b. "It has decreased the rate of absorption, causing greater incidents of flooding".

Explanation:

Wetlands are a type of ecosystem characterized being flooded with water almost permanently, which allows the proliferation of aquatic plants. The removal of these ecosystems has impacted rivers and streams by decreasing the rate of absorption, causing greater incidents of flooding. Wetlands serves as water deposits, helping to prevent flooding. Removing them  results in greater incidents of flooding and decreasing the rate of absorption at rivers and streams.

label a cell membrane

label b cytoplasm

label c ribosomes

label d dna

the membrane forms the outside of the cell

cytoplasm is the liquid within

ribosomes are the components within that distribute rna

the dna is the genetic make-up
