What effect does planting trees and bushes on a steep hill have?



A- It makes the hill a good habitat for animals.

B- It provides oxygen to the soil.

C- Over time, it will help the hill grow taller.

D- It helps stop erosion.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D- It helps stop erosion.

Explanation:

Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.

The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.

Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion. Other factors that affect the rate of erosion in an area include the following; farm management, rainfall, climate, soil type, soil cover, landscape, type of wave, crops, rock strength and position of coast.

In order to mitigate or stop the rate of erosion in an environment, trees and bushes should be planted on a steep hill because they will obstruct the free flow of water, as well as absorbing it.

The Galapagos pink land iguana, Conolophus marthae (C. marthaes, is native to
only one of the Galapagos Islands. its entire range is currently limited to Wolf
Volcano on Isabella Island. The iguana was first discovered this island in 1986
Genetic studies of the animal began sometime later, and it was identified as a
species separate from other guana populations on the Galapagos in 2009. Its
population might have been as high as 100 in 1986, but now there might be as few
as 10 of the animals left alive

What is the purpose of hardening?
To eliminate all disease
To manage the population of endangered trees
To allow nursery plants to transition to the outdoors
To make sure that the trunk of the tree is as strong as possible before planting

Answers

Answer: To allow nursery plants to transition to the outdoors.

Explanation:

Hardening is a process in which the small seedling plants are exposed to the unprotected environment of the garden so that they develop some tolerance against those conditions. The small seedlings were earlier exposed to low water, sunlight, and wind conditions but for hardening they are kept at those areas of the garden where they experience harsh levels of these agents for a short duration and the duration is increased with routine so that plants can adapt the changes when they are planted outdoor or outside the care of garden. It is one of the gardening practices.

Answers

Answer:

- The co-worker is wrong, it is indeed possible

- Genetically engineered plants may represent a milestone to alleviate hunger in the world

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and water (H2O) from soil and rain in order to produce oxygen and glucose, which is a sugar (molecular formula C6​H12​O6). Subsequently, plants release oxygen into the air and store energy (and carbon compounds) in the form of glucose. In consequence, an increase in the photosynthetic rate is directly associated with an increase in both the production of oxygen and glucose. On the other hand, genetically engineered plants can help to reduce hunger in developing countries. In consequence, it is acceptable to develop genetically modified plants as long as contemplating regulatory measures aimed at producing safe products (for example, by avoiding the introduction of genetically engineered genes into wild crop populations).

Which of the following irrigation methods is most likely to result in salinization of the soil, especially if the agricultural fields are located in a warm climate with consistent sunlight
A Spray irrigation
Furrow irrigation
Flood irrigation
Drip Irrigation

Answers

Answer: Furrow Irrigation (B)

Explanation:

Furrow irrigation

Salinization of the SoilThe accumulation of water-soluble salts in the soil is known as salinization. Excess salts inhibit crop growth by decreasing their ability to absorb water, making salinization a resource concern.Surface irrigation in which trenches or "furrows" are created between crop rows in a field is known as furrow irrigation. Furrow irrigation is done by laying down short parallel channels down the length of the field in the direction of the predominant slope.Furrow irrigation is most likely to result in salinization of the soil, especially if the agricultural fields are located in a warm climate with consistent sunlight
