In east Siberia temperatures regularly plummet to below -40^circ F This has led to many challenges when it comes to surviving in this climate Iregion. Most buildings in Siberia are built on deep concrete stilts that sink deep into the permafrost in order to provide a solid foundation. Many buildings are at least 6 feet off the ground to not melt the ice in the ground as heat is emitted from the building.

The human-environment interaction described in the excerpt is 'adaptation'.
Explicación
## Step 1The problem presents a scenario where humans are interacting with their environment, specifically in the context of extreme cold temperatures in East Siberia. The humans are adapting to this environment by building structures that are resistant to the cold.## Step 2The options provided are: adaptation, genocide, desalinization, and modification. We need to identify which of these best describes the human-environment interaction in the given scenario.## Step 3Adaptation refers to the process of adjusting to a new environment or situation. In this case, the humans are adapting to the extreme cold temperatures by building structures that are resistant to the cold.## Step 4Genocide refers to the intentional killing of a large number of people, usually in a specific ethnic or cultural group. This does not apply to the scenario presented.## Step 5Desalinization refers to the process of removing salt from seawater. This is not relevant to the scenario presented.## Step 6Modification refers to the act of changing something. While the humans are changing their environment by building structures, this is not the best description of the interaction.
