Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The factors namely the temperature and rainfall plays a very significant role in maintaining the quality of the soil. A comparatively warmer temperature along with abundance of rainfall helps the soil to gain nutrients and increases its fertility. But a cooler temperature with lesser amount of rainfall does not provide the necessary elements to the soil. As a result of which the soil loses its fertility. In nature, these two factors occurs simultaneously, that controls the chemical composition of the soil.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

prairie dogs are rodents that eat nonwoody plants and live in burrows in the expanse of the prairie biome. in which of these oth
forsale [732]

Answer:

tundra

Explanation:

The tundra is a biome in which there are no large trees, and the ones that are present are small as a typical grass. The majority of the plants are nonwoody ones. The climate is very cold throughout most of the year, so the animals that are able to make borrows are using them for the majority of the year, as it is much warmer below the ground than on the surface. If we take the way of lifestyle the prairie dog has and what it requires, then it will not be weird if an animal with very similar characteristics is found living in the tundra. The basic conditions seem to very similar, so an animal that is prairie dog-like, will only need slight adaptations in order to survive in that environment, mostly thicker fur, and ability to have a long hibernation.
