What is the best explanation for the changes in population and steel consumption during the last 50 years on the graph?
(1 point)
Past construction of things like hydroelectric dams has continued to meet needs without requiring more construction.
People have grown to understand the effects of consuming too many resources and have used less steel in their daily lives.
Even though the population has decreased, people are using more and more steel each year.
We are running out of the materials needed to make steel, so there will be less and less used each year.
100% percent correct
I promise <3
1.The population was around 100 million and steel consumption began.
2.saving electricity at home
3.pollution from mining operations
4. copper
IG-xemblex is 75% wrong don't listen to them
I got a 1 out of 4 wrong cause that cuunt
Your welcome
:]
"Koi" Is 100% correct! thx

Question
Use the graph to answer the question.
The vertical axis is labeled millions and ranges from 0 to 900 in increments of 100. The horizontal axis is labeled year and lists dates from 1700 to 2000 in 100-year increments. The line for population starts at 90 million for 1700 and with a slow growth rate reaches to 120 million by 1900. The line then rises with a high growth rate and reaches beyond 600 million by 2000. The line for steel consumption starts from 0 in 1860 and reaches 20 million by 1900. The line then rises with a high growth rate to reach beyond 800 million by 2000. The values used in the description are approximate.
Why did the steel consumption drop during the most recent years?

Modern construction and manufacturing do not use steel anymore.

The population is decreasing, so less steel is needed for buildings.

To determine the best explanation for the changes in population and steel consumption during the last 50 years on the graph, we need to analyze the graph and the given options.
First, let's examine the options:
1. Past construction of things like hydroelectric dams has continued to meet needs without requiring more construction.
2. People have grown to understand the effects of consuming too many resources and have used less steel in their daily lives.
3. Even though the population has decreased, people are using more and more steel each year.
4. We are running out of the materials needed to make steel, so there will be less and less used each year.
To get the answer, we should refer to the graph provided. The graph will provide the necessary information to evaluate the options.
The graph might show two lines or bars representing both the population and steel consumption over the last 50 years. By examining the trend of the lines or bars, we can determine the correlation between population and steel consumption.
If the population line is increasing or decreasing while the steel consumption line remains relatively stable, we can rule out options 2 and 3 as they contradict the graph. Similarly, if the population line is decreasing and the steel consumption line is also decreasing, we can exclude option 1 as it does not align with the data.
However, if both the population line and the steel consumption line are increasing over the last 50 years, option 3 becomes a potential explanation for the changes.
Option 4 suggests that the decrease in steel consumption is due to a lack of materials. To evaluate this option, we would need additional context or data about the availability of steel-making materials. Without such information, it is difficult to determine if option 4 is a valid explanation for the changes in steel consumption.
After analyzing the given options and examining the graph, option 3 appears to be the best explanation: "Even though the population has decreased, people are using more and more steel each year." This option aligns with the observed trend of both population and steel consumption increasing over the last 50 years.
Note: Without access to the actual graph or further data, we can only provide a general explanation of the best option based on the information provided.
