Sharp reduction in agricultural land has been the negative effect of industrialization in China. This scenario occurs because the development of cities to accommodate high population will give way to more lands that will be used for innovations instead for agriculture/food production. This does not only happen in China but also in other parts of the world where the fast increase in their economic growth is going on a fast rate but there are not enough places to accommodate this specific growth.
As a result, lands that are supposed to be for agriculture are maximized by city construction which in the long term might lead to societal hunger.
Answer:
It would affect all organisms on the planet and the food cycle would be ruined.
Answer:
Plants and animals adapt to sunlight, water and climatic changes.
Explanation:
- Adaptation in plants and animals is common like humans which enables them to survive in hostile environments.
- The adaptation is a major genetic and physiological adaptation of species and allows them to modify their behavior in aspect or respect to the changes in the external environment such as climate etc.
- Such as the white-coated rabbit, ox, and fox during the winter months. The adaptation of plants such as growing close to the ground antarctic region to capture the maximum solar heat.
- The shedding of the leaves with changing seasons and the ability to adapt to shades of the forest floor are some of the characteristics properties of the plants and animals.
Lava flows are the least hazardous of all processes in volcanic eruptions. How far a lava flow travels depends on the flows temperature, silica content, extrusion rate, and slope of the land. A cold lava flow will not travel far and neither will one that has a high silica content. Such a flow would have a high viscosity<span> (a high resistance to flow). A basalt flow like those in Hawai'i have low silica contents and low viscosities so they can flow long distances. Such a flow can move as far away as 4 km from its source and have a thickness of 10 m (Bryant, 1991). These flows can move at rates of several kilometers per hour (Scott, 1989). </span><span>More silica-rich flows can move as far away as 1.3 km from their sources and have thicknesses of 100 m (Bryant, 1991). These flows can move at rates of a few to hundreds of meters per hour (Scott, 1989). If a lava flow is channelized or travels underground in a lava tube then the distance it travels is greatly extended.</span>
