The answer is soil degradation. It is an artificial evolution related to the local climate and vegetation. It is caused by the replacement of primary plant communities (known as climax) by the secondary communities. This replacement changes the humus composition and quantity, and affects the formation of the soil. It is directly related to human activity. Soil degradation may also be defined as any change or disturbance in the soil perceived to be deleterious or undesirable. In this question, the more the farmer worked, the more he incidentally changed the formation and structure of the soil which resulted in the decrease in his crop yield.

Svetach [21]

Answer:

Hover for more information. Humans can affect weathering (breaking down of rock/soil) in several ways. Humans cause increases in acid rain and pollution, which increase the amount of weathering agents in the air and water, and then on land The effects of weathering disintegrate and alter mineral and rocks near or at the earth's surface. This shapes the earth's surface through such processes as wind and rain erosion or cracks caused by freezing and thawing. Each process has a distinct effect on rocks and minerals.

Tension often arises between citizens' need for information and the government's need for secrecy on issues involving
cluponka [151]

The answer is National security because the citizens need to know that they are being protected, and usually also how they are being protected. But the government often needs so measure of secrecy in order to protect National Security. If the government were to tell citizens exactly how they were being protected and someone posted it onto the internet it would severely compromise that protection. However people do not generally seem to understand that and tensions become heated between the two groups. Both sides reasons are perfectly legitimate, but one outweighs the other by knowledge. The answer is B.

What do geographers not use to determine absolute location
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Geographers can describe the location of a place in one of two ways: absolute and relative. Both are descriptives of where a geographic location is.  

Absolute location describes the location of a place based on a fixed point on earth.  The most common way is to identify the location using coordinates such as latitude and longitude.  Lines of longitude and latitude crisscross the earth. Latitude is used to mark the north-south position of a location on the Earth’s surface and ranges from 0 degrees at the equator to 90 degrees at the North and South Poles.  There are 180 degrees of latitude and the distance between each degree of latitude is roughly 69 miles (111 km).
