Extinctions that occur at a moderate rate and open a limited number of opportunities for the origin of new species are known as background extinctions.

<h3>What are background extinctions?</h3>

Extinction is the physical disappearance of one given species and/or population in an ecosystem.

The term 'background extinctions' makes reference to the extinction that does not generate new niches in an ecosystem.

Background extinctions are well known because they do not contribute to the emergence of biodiversity.

I am too lazy to do this, but I am assuming you were supposed to do this in class. I will give you ideas.

Why is soil important?  Soil is our life support system. Soils provide anchorage for roots, hold water and nutrients. Soils are home to myriad micro-organisms that fix nitrogen and decompose organic matter, and armies of microscopic animals as well as earthworms and termites.

What is soil erosion?  Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all landforms. In agriculture, soil erosion refers to the wearing away of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of water (Figure 1) and wind (Figure 2) or through forces associated with farming activities such as tillage.

what human activities are responsible for soil erosion happening at advance rates?     Ploughing, unsuitable agricultural practices, combined with deforestation and overgrazing, are the main causes of human-induced soil erosion

What are some effects on soil loss?  The effects of soil erosion go beyond the loss of fertile land. It has led to increased pollution and sedimentation in streams and rivers, clogging these waterways and causing declines in fish and other species. And degraded lands are also often less able to hold onto water, which can worsen flooding.

What can be done to prevent soil erosion?   Maintaining a healthy, perennial plant cover.

Mulching.

Planting a cover crop – such as winter rye in vegetable gardens. ...

Placing crushed stone, wood chips, and other similar materials in heavily used areas where vegetation is hard to establish and maintain.

Explanation:  Hope this helps and have a great day

The base composition of the genes (nucleotide) are stained by the dye known as Giemsa stain. The nitrogenous base adenine and thymine of the heterochromatic region of chromosome stained darkly in this technique. The darkly stained area is generally gene poor area.
