Answer:
A. Floods will wipe out all the vegetation
Explanation:
Drought is an environmental condition characterized by scarcity of water. Less rainfall and reduced ground water levels facilitate drought like conditions. In the event of drought, animals face difficulty in finding food and water and thus are forced to migrate to other areas. However, flood is exact opposite to drought. It is caused by excess rainfall or increase in water level which destroys the ecosystem. It is not a characteristic of drought.
Answer:
plant acids
Explanation:
A lichen consists of a photosynthetic microorganism such as, for example, a photosynthetic green alga, which is surrounded by the filaments of a fungus. Moreover, chemical weathering is a gradual process where chemicals react with the minerals in the rock to form new minerals, oxidize or simply dissolve them. Lichens can lead to chemical weathering of rocks via the excretion of organic acids (e.g, oxalic acid) capable of dissolving minerals and chelating metallic cations.
