Answer:

<u>Option-(C):</u>It is the best option to choose from the given four.

Explanation:

We have the following explanation to the given option selected by us;

  • <u>Law of superposition-</u> It states that the younger layers of the rock sediments occur on top of the earth surface while, the older layers occur beneath them with a given sequence if there was no disturbance occurred in the sequence formation.
  • <u>Principle of original horizontally: </u>According to the following principle the rock sediments or layers of the earth are formed starting horizontally, as the folded and tilted strata are analyzed through by this principle.

<em>As, the geologist do the analyses of earths layer and they measured the age and the position of the sediments present in the earth layers, to find its properties.</em>

Does sustainability cause environmental pollution in plants
gladu [14]

Answer:Environmental pollution is any discharge of material or energy into water, land, or air that causes or may cause acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) detriment to the Earth's ecological balance or that lowers the quality of life. Pollutants may cause primary damage, with direct identifiable impact on the environment, or secondary damage in the form of minor perturbations in the delicate balance of the biological food web that are detectable only over long time periods.

Air pollution is the process which the substances and the energy forms are not present in normal atmospheric composition reach the atmosphere, or are present but in much lower concentrations.Air pollution is the introduction of chemicals, particulate matter, or biological materials that cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms, or cause damage to the natural environment or built environment, into the atmosphere.

More than 3,000 substances that are not part of the atmospheric composition, falling in the atmosphere can be considered air pollutants.

Some substances that are normally present in the atmosphere in a certain concentration can be considerate pollutants because their concentration is much higher than usual concentration.

Also certain substances that are normally present in certain layers of the atmosphere (e.g. ozone in the stratosphere), once arrived in the troposphere is pollutant.

Some gases, such as oxides of nitrogen may have beneficial effect on vegetation, after hydration may affect the leaf fertilizer.

The air pollutants factors can be chemical (chemicals), mechanics (particles in suspension) physical (ionizing radiation) and acoustic (noise).

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: C) rate of soybean growth

 

Explanation:

A independent variable is the one which can be altered in an experiment the effect of such alteration can be observed on the dependent variable.

In a particular comparative analysis, the independent variable is present on the x-axis and the dependent variable on the y-axis of the graph.

In the graph, the rate of soybean growth will be placed on the y-axis as it is a dependent variable. The amount of fertilizers should be on the x-axis as it is the independent variable.
