Question 14 • Environmental Science A

What is a landfill? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
It is a pile of trash collected from humans.
B
It is a structure that isolates waste from the surrounding environment.
C
It is a dump formed to hold human trash.
D
It is a planned structure that buries trash in the ground.

Explanation

A landfill is a planned, engineered place where waste is buried and managed to keep it separate from the surrounding environment. Choice B describes that isolation, and choice D describes the planned burial of trash. A mere pile or dump, as in A or C, does not necessarily have these features.
