Deserts are dry and infertile, so not my plants and living things are able to live and grow there.
Sophie [7]4 years ago

Answer:

Lack of water and unstable weather make life in these places complicated

Explanation:

Deserts are regions that present few conditions for the maintenance of life, especially to prevent or hinder human habitation. These are arid (but not necessarily hot) regions with low rainfall and few food resources readily available. But that does not mean that these locations do not have fauna, flora and even cities in their landscapes.

The word comes from the Latin “desertu”, which means uninhabited, lonely, emptied.

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Large scale agriculture will definitely lead to increased CO2.

Explanation:

This is due to the fact that plants give out oxygen and take in CO2 which is released by animals and man , so due to the large scale agriculture, the excess oxygen released by plants purifies the air of poisonous gases like carbon monoxide and leaving it with carbon dioxide- CO2.

inna [77]

I'm not sure what the choices are, but here are some answers that are true about ecosystems:

An ecosystem is a large community of living organisms

Each ecosystem has its own community.

Once defined, an ecosystem is a unit scientists can analyze

The greater the inputs, the greater the biodiversity in an ecosystem.

P Waves
A P wave, or compressional wave, is a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth in the same direction and the opposite direction as the direction the wave is moving. The P stands for primary, as P waves are the fastest of the 3 wave types.
S Waves
An S wave, or shear wave, is a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving.
Surface Waves
