The answer is that Both aid in the expansion and relaxation of lungs. Diaphragm and the rib muscles are vital in the breathing process. During inhalation the intercostal muscles contract, expanding the ribcage, the diaphragm contracts, pulling downwards to increase the volume of the chest, pressure inside the chest is lowered and air is sucked into the lungs. During exhalation the intercostal muscles relax, the ribcage drops inward and downwards, the diaphragm relaxes, moving back upwards, decreasing the volume of the chest, the pressure inside the chest increases and air is forced out.

When farmers leave plant stalks in the field to reduce soil erosion, it is called ____. a. contour farming c. no-till farming b.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

In no-till farming method, the farmer usually uses a no-till planter with the help of which they make a narrow type of trench that is sufficient enough for the seed to be grown in rows. The residue of the cover crop is allowed to place on the surface of the soil by not plowing, as a result of which the soil is protected from getting eroded and losing of moisture content. This improves soil quality.

This method helps in increasing the water content that percolates down into the soil, holding the organic matter and recycling of nutrient matters. It also expands the growth and population of microbes in the soil, which provides more nutrients to the soil and increases the fertility of the soil.

Thus, when a farmer leaves plant stalks in the field to reduce soil erosion, then it is known as no-till farming.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
