5 0

The statement that is true as per widely accepted theories is that the landmass of Pangaea split into separate continents over time. The correct option is B.

<h3>What is Pangaea theory?</h3>

According to National Geographic, the Pangaea theory proposed that the tectonic plates that make up the planet's outer crust drifted over the inner layers until they merged as a landmass surrounded by a massive ocean called Panthalassa.

The existence of Pangea was first proposed by German meteorologist Alfred Wegener in 1912 as part of his theory of continental drift. Its identity is inferred from the Greek pangaia, which means "the entire Earth."

Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:

D.) Nucleolus

Explanation:

The nucleolus is a round body located inside the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. It is not surrounded by a membrane but sits in the nucleus. The nucleolus makes ribosomal subunits from proteins and ribosomal RNA, also known as rRNA. It then sends the subunits out to the rest of the cell where they combine into complete ribosomes. Ribosomes make proteins; therefore, the nucleolus plays a vital role in making proteins in the cell.

C. Algal blooms followed by eutrophication is the correct one

Stockyard Runoff

Correct D. Increased biological oxygen demand/decreased dissolved oxygen

Soil disturbance

Correct A. Erosion, flooding; clogged shipping channels and harbors

Pesticides

Correct B. Reproductive failure, poisoning, and/or death (pollinators, pets, livestock, predators, children)

Explanation:

For industrial agriculture to be effective and productive today, we have to take into account many factors so our practices function in a good way. When it comes to chemical fertilizers, it is NOT a risk the Increased biological oxygen demand/decreased dissolved oxygen , the correct risk is algal blooms followed by eutrophication. Regarding Stockyard Runoff it is wrong to think the algal blooms followed by eutrophication as risk, the actual risk is the increased biological oxygen demand/decreased dissolved oxygen. The risk in soil disturbance is the erosion, flooding; clogged shipping channels and harbors and thinking about pesticides , they are in risk for reproductive failure, poisoning, and/or death (pollinators, pets, livestock, predators, children) .
