Natali [406]1 year ago

An area where soil has eroded experience loss of nutrients. The topmost layer of soil is called the topsoil and is the most fertile. Soil erosion results in the loss of soil fertility and makes the land barren

The main cause of soil erosion is the removal of vegetation, which exposes the topsoil to water and wind. Wind and water are the main agents of soil erosion.

Water erosion can be sheet erosion, rill erosion, gully erosion or riparian erosion.

Two peeled large carrot pieces are placed in beakers one containing water and the other containing sugar solution. The carrot pi
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

a)Difference in physical state observed:

The difference between the two carrots is that the carrot in the plain water appears bigger or slightly swollen while the carrot in the salt water appears smaller and has shrank in length and slightly in width.

b)Process involved that has caused the changes:

The process that has taken place is osmosis.

c)Why has the process occured:

The process occurs due to the semi-permeable membrane of the cells of carrots that allow water either in or out of the cells.

In the plain water, the process that takes place is endosmosis where the cells of the carrot draw in water and hence the carrot increases in mass. The carrot in the salt water, on the other hand, experiences exosmosis, where water is drawn from the carrot's cells and the carrot becomes dehydrated and shrinks in length and width.

d) Beaker 1 : Water

Beaker 2 : Sugar Solution

e) example of endosmosis is absorption of capillary water from the soil by the root.

another example of endosmosis is is entrance of water in the xylem vessel from the soil by the root.

Which of the following statements about evolution is TRUE? Evolution describes how an individual's offspring develop from juveni
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Selective survival and reproduction is a requirement of evolution by natural selection.

Explanation:

Evolution is a slow process of change in the heritable features of species over a successive generation of time.

The process of evolution takes place during a long period of time only when the advantageous mutations are passed on to the generations and become established.

The mechanism of this process is natural selection which increases the reproductive rate as well as the survival rate of the species.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

How does the structure of a type of human tissue relate to its function in the body?
Illusion [34]
I'll give the example of muscle tissue. The arrangement of cells in muscle tissue allows for contraction and relaxation with elasticity, as the tissue is smooth. The answer will be different depending on which type of tissue you are looking at.

A large volume of blood is transfused to a person whose baroreceptor blood pressure control system is not functioning. Arterial
Ghella [55]

Answer:  The correct answer is :  - 2

Explanation:  Baroreceptors are pressure receptors. The normal set point is 100 nnHg, which means that when the value is 160 mmHg the gain is 60, when the system is running the value is 120 mmHg that is still above 20 mmHg of the normal set point that It is 100 mmHg. Taking every 20 as a unit, the value of 20 above continues to be 40 below 160 when the system did not work, which equals - 2 which is equal to 40 = 2 (20).

If natural selection has no foresight, how can it explain features that seem to prepare organisms for future events? for example
Nezavi [6.7K]

The genes in a population give forth the genetic variability across a population (genotypes). In addition, occasional mutations of these genes in a population increase this genetic variability. Hovever, natural selection only favours reproduction of individuals with genes that are favourable in the environment/habitat. Therefore, natural selection has no foresight but is rather pegged on being an ‘opportunistic’ process.
