Agricultural practices relating to irrigation have the tendency to reduce the water level of river basins.

<h3>What are the effects of irrigation agriculture on river basins?</h3>

Irrigation agriculture requires that crops are watered artificially and this requires a water source. Hence, waters in river basins suffer and this leads to a reduction in their levels.

Water quality is impacted by agricultural practices such as the use of agrochemicals and fertilizers. Agrochemicals are washed into water bodies and this impacts biodiversity life in water.

One conservation strategy to reduce the impact of this kind of agricultural practice would be to practice organic farming. A farming practice that is devoid of using agrochemicals or the ones that are not poisonous to biodiversity and are biodegradable.

Which of the following results when a person’s hand is near an open flame?
Ede4ka [16]

Given what we know, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.

<h3>What happens when a person's hand is near a flame?</h3>

We can say that the information from the heat being generated by the flame is received by sensory neurons in the person's hand. This information generates a pain response which is integrated as incoming information in the brain, which then produces a motor response to move the hand away from the flame, as an outgoing signal.

Therefore, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.

goblinko [34]
Mutations can lead to changes in the structure of an encoded protein or to a decrease or complete loss in its expression. Because a change in the DNA sequence affects all copies of the encoded protein, mutations can be particularly damaging to a cell or organism.

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against _____.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Research studies suggest that a high-fiber diet protects against colon cancer. This is because high fibrous food increases the bulk in the digestive tract to pass easily through the intestinal tract to shorten the time of passage. This short time of passage of food reduces the interaction of carcinogens present in the food with the intestinal tract. The fibers are broken down in butyrate by the bacteria present in the lower intestine. This butyrate inhibits the growth of tumors of colon and rectum,
