Answer:

The negative effects of blocking the flow of river water are as follows-

(1) Due to the blockage of the river water flow, it leads to an increase in the amount of water over a particular area, as a result of which flood occurs. This flood causes various damages including the household properties and the soil loses its fertility.

(2) Blocking or river water flow also causes destruction to the freshwater habitat. The rate of evaporation also increases when river water is blocked, due to which the algae in the water increases and oxygen level decreases, affecting the marine plants and animals of freshwater bodies.

(3) The water quality degrades due to the blocking of river water, as various types of minerals including beneficial and harmful minerals are accumulated in the blocked areas.

How do hurricanes cause tornadoes?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

This is called wind shear, and it can induce a spinning movement in the air. At first this creates a spinning cylinder of air that is parallel to the surface. But as with any thunderstorm, the convective cells in a hurricane create strong updrafts. These can tilt the spinning air upright; a tornado is born.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

D. Selection has led to decreases in the size of fish at the age of reproductive maturity.

Explanation:

The larger body size of the fishes is not an adaptive trait as it reduces the survival chances of these fishes. The process of natural selection tends to increase the frequency of the traits that increase the survival fitness of the organisms. Here, the fishes with smaller body size at the reproductive age have greater chances of survival and would reproduce more to leave more progeny. Over the generations, the selection pressure would increase the proportion of fishes that are smaller during reproductive age.
