Answer: EXCESS NUTRIENTS FROM FERTILIZERS
Explanation: Fertilizer is an organic or synthetic chemical materials which contains certain nutrients or chemical compounds required by plants for proper growth and development.
Euthrophication is the process of increase in the plant population in water bodies such as Algae and other higher plant species due to the release of nutrients into water bodies. This nutrients can be washed through the flooding of farm lands,erosion etc. Example of fertilizers include livestock manures,Ammonium nitrogen fertilizer,Nitrate nitrogen fertilizer,Amide nitrogen fertilizer,Agricultural waste etc.
Answer:
<u>It depends on the weather and climate of a place</u>
Explanation:
- The choice of clothing will be impacted by the humidity, dryness, and coldness of the weather as a place located in a tropical climate will have a warm and hot and humid type of atmosphere and the type of clothing needed for this should be of loose fittings.
- In cold type or temperate type of climate i.e the area of high pressure. Clothing should be heavy i.e woolen or thermals.
- Rain seasons is time-bound season around the world, as the place that are situated at dry latitudes are constituted to have clothing of light and low nature, in rainfall one needs to have an umbrella as compared that of the desert zones.
- Climate is a long term change and weather is a short in overall these characteristics of the lat long should be kept in mind before going or moving to that domain.
i. Using fossil evidences
ii. Similar rock lithologies at the edges of continent
iii. Climate clues
iv. Fitting of the continents into a puzzle
v. Sea floor spreading
Explanation:
Pangea was a super-continent on the earth which formed about 330 million years ago during the Paleozoic and began breaking up during the early Mesozoic, about 175 million years ago.
Most of the present day continents formed as a result of the separation of the Pangea in the early Mesozoic.
The first scientist to propose the existence of this super-continent was Alfred Wegener in 1912. He suggested the continental drift hypothesis to explain the separation of the land masses.
Today, the theory has been revised to the theory of plate tectonics which provides a better mechanism to understand the drifting of the continents.
Here are some of the evidences to support the existence of Pangea;
- Using fossil evidences: Mesosaurus, a reptile animal that lived during the Permian, was found in both South America and Southern Africa. Since this animal could not swim nor fly, only a jointed landmass could have made them present in both continents.
- Similar rock lithologies at the edges of continents: rock formations at the Western edge of Africa and South - Eastern part of Brazil matches with one another and have been believed to be once joined together.
- Climatic clues such as glacial tills that are confined to temperate and polar regions have been found in tropical regions.
- Wegener fitted the present day continent into a giant supercontinent and this provided a visual support for his claim.
- Evidences from sea floor spreading revealing magnetic reversals at divergent margins suggests the prevalence of plate tectonics i.e moving plates on earth.
This among many other evidences underscores the existence of a supercontinent called Pangea.
I believe it is fall in the north and spring in the south
