-they are rarely disturbed by humans
-they are often isolated from each other, which contributes to species diversity

One example is the Portuguese west coast with its rare fern species, some of which don't even have an English name, such as Verbascum litigiosum,

Describe the problems caused by water scarcity in the Middle East. What are some of the strategies the region has taken to deal

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The problems that the Middle East faces because of water scarcity are that the population is concentrated in very small areas, agriculture is on a low level, and the population growth is limited. Some of the strategies used for this problem are strictly controlled water supply, desalinization, and artificial rainfall.

Explanation:

e The Middle East is one of the poorest regions in the world when it comes to water supplies. This has caused numerous problems and even nowadays with the advancements of technology they are hard to solve. Because there are huge areas that don't have any water at all, the populations are usually very concetrated near the very few water supplies. The population growth is limited because there simply isn't enough water for large population growth, and agriculture is only possible in small areas, while it lacks in the majority of the region.

In order to solve some of these problems, the leaders have been coming up with some solutions. Israel has been using technology to produce rainfall, which has had excellent results. The water supply is heavily controlled and no one is allowed to overuse it. The biggest problem, water for drinking, has been solved by using the process of desalinization of the saline water.

Of all the following processes which one increases the salinity of water? A. Icebergs melting B. Runoff C. Sea ice melting D. Ev

nika2105 [10]

Answer: EVAPORATION.

Explanation: Salinity can be defined as the saltiness or the concentration of salt dissolved in a body of water. Measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water.

Evaporation increases the salinity of water. Basically, evaporation is the process of converting liquid into gaseous state. In essence, concentration of a solution can be increased by evaporation and since the salinity of water is measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water, therefore, the lesser the amount of water per salt, the higher the salinity.
