Answer:

0.1

Explanation:

The Net Reproduction per individual per unit time (r) can be calculated as (births-deaths)/population size

Given that:

Population size of mice = 1,000; Birth = 500; Death = 400,

Net reproduction rate (r) = (births-deaths)/population size

r = (500 – 400)/1000

r = 100/1000

r = 0.1

The Net reproduction per individual per unit time (r) is 0.1

What is the first stage of a thunderstorm?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Cumulus stage

Explanation:

Most electrical storms form from stages, their first stage is cumulus:

In this stage, the sun warms the surface of the earth, this makes the heat from the surface warm the nearby air, as the hot air is lighter than the cool it begins to rise. If the air is humid, then the hot air condenses into a culumus cloud. The cloud will continue to grow as long as the hot air continues to rise.

How does fertilizer usage, soil degradation, and deforestation all tie in together?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

<u>Fertilizer usage is linked to the agricultural practice</u> with an aim to <u>enhance the crop yield</u>. Inadequae use of fertilizers however causes soil degradation because <u>these practices overlook the spatial differences in soil fertility status </u>in agricultrual systems. Specifically,<u> not all soils require fertilizer application at the same levels</u>. A recommended approach is that, initially, there should be a proper study of limited nutrients in the soil and thereon only those nutrients should be given at controlled concentrations, which are limited. A major reason is that <u>high concentration of specific nutrients would affect the bioavailability of other nutrients</u> in the long run and could also lead to soil degradation (by affecting soil health status). <u>The microbial population in the soil could also change</u> that are typical for essential biogeochemical cycles. This is a very critical aspect in future future agriculture and to preserve the environment. <u>Deforestation</u> is a condition when the plants are cut excessively for agricultural purposes. <u>If soil degradation continues as discussed above, it would put a reduce the overall proportion of agricultrual land and cutting of naturally grown forests would be required. This would turn the green zones into agricultural zones (in future)</u>. This is a pressure on ecosystem and the consequences can be really harsh.
