Answer:Water conservation

Explanation:

In some of the higher plants there is a presence   of hard cutaneous part on the leaves. Cuticle is a water-impervious layer which covers the epidermal cells of the leaves.

It aids in limiting the water loss by the leaves. It is the part of plants that faces the external environment by hindering the water loss.

This part is made up of waxy coating, which is water repellent known as suberin.

It helps in the water conservation as it limits the excess loss of water from leaves.

How does an increase in the use of coal affect biodiversity and air and water quality in a region?​
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

by developing more efficient methods of mining coal  

Explanation:

Coal is a combustible black or brownish black sedimentary rock. Coal is produced by the dead plant matter. It is a fossil fuel that is used for generating electricity in the thermal power plants, used as cooking fuel, and fuel in automobiles. The burning of the coal results in the liberation of carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide gases in the environment. These gases are responsible for causing the air pollution.

Developing more efficient methods of mining coal is not a conservation tactic related to coal consumption because the more the efficient mining will promote the excavation of the coal, which will further contribute to its extensive consumption and air pollution.
