Question

In which location would you expect to have the most landslides at the END of the given sequence of events? For all areas, assume that each event (drought, wildfire and heavy rain) is identical.

A.Location in the mountains that first experiences a long drought, then experiences wildfires, and then experiences heavy rain
B.Location in the mountains that first experiences wildfires, then experiences heavy rain, and then experiences a long drought
C.Location in the plains that first experiences a long drought, then experiences wildfires, and then experiences heavy rain
D.Location in the plains that first experiences wildfires, then experiences heavy rain, and then experiences a long drought

Answer 1

A. Location in the mountains that first experiences a long drought, then experiences wildfires, and then experiences heavy rain

Step-by-step explanation:

Landslide is referred to as the collapse of a mass of earth or rock from a mountain or cliff and it Is caused by the movement of rock, earth, or debris down a sloped section of land.

Provide that the events (drought, wildfire and heavy rain) can happen in any particular order and they have the same magnitude..the area with most landslide would be (A) because it's very easy after drought (which a prolonged period of abnormally low rainfall, leading to a shortage of water) for wildfire to occur...

The dryness of land and vegetations can lead to wildfire because wildfires easily extends during dry and warm season.

Invariably, this can lead to the destruction and weakness of the land and looseness of the land particle which can be easily washed away by heavy downpour.

Answer 2

Answer:Mountainous areas that have been affected by drought (vegetation will be very dry) wild fires and then heavy rain will result in landslides so A is correct.
