Answer:

Shifting cultivation is a type of agricultural process in which you plant a crop in a plot, and when the season finishes (or when the productiveness of the given plot is low), you let the plot "rest" or you plant a different strategical crop (that can help the plot regain fertility) in that plot, which allows the plot to regain fertility.

Explanation:

This is a useful method since you do not have to invest money or time into compost, instead, you let the earths fertility come back naturally, which is the most ecological and natural method you could use, without breaking any vital cycles or anything similar.

Hope it helped,

Explanation:

In the Miller-Urey experiment, the aim was to reproduce the conditions of the earth before the existence of life, with the objective of demonstrating the formation of organic matter from inorganic molecules.

The scientists took water and gases present in the Hadean eon —previous to the existence of life— such as methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen and even ammonia, the primordial soup. This mixture was subjected to electrical discharges, inside closed containers.

The results were some organic molecules, including glucose, acetic acid, amino acids and fatty acids. In these results the presence of macromolecules, such as proteins or nucleic acids, is not appreciated, however it was a significant contribution to the knowledge of the origin of life on earth.
