Because gm crops can't replace everything. yes even they can make a better species and increase the productivity, but some countries or farmers might not have the technology to replace all the crops with gm crops, and they still have to rely on chemical fertilisers. chemical fertilisers can be deadly as if u overuse them, it can pollute the water and leading to euthrophication, where it can kill sea animals

What is gerrymeandering and what are the two ways gerrymandering occurs?
masha68 [24]

Explanation:

What is gerrymandering?

Gerrymandering occurs when district lines are redrawn, often in distorted, complex shapes, in an attempt to manipulate election results and disenfranchise voters. Gerrymandering gets its name from Massachusetts Governor Elbridge Gerry , who, in 1812, signed a bill creating a district that looked like a salamander — mocked as a “Gerry-mander”.

Types of Gerrymandering

Gerrymandering comes in many different forms, the most notable of which are racial and partisan gerrymandering. In racial gerrymandering, districts are drawn to dilute — or, in some cases, amplify — the representation of racial groups. For the most part, the Supreme Court has taken a hard stance against racial gerrymandering.

Partisan gerrymandering, on the other hand, is used by both Democrats and Republicans to dilute the amount of representation the opposing party can gain or amplify their own representation.

There are two main methods to gerrymandering — “packing” and “cracking.” When a gerrymandered district is “packed” in a partisan way, people of Party A are drawn into one district, while Party B supporters are spread across many districts. Even though Party A will likely win their district, they’ll only win one district, while Party B will likely win the rest and have a majority. “Cracking,” on the other hand, refers to splitting people up so that their candidate is unlikely to get a majority in any district.

Which of the following statements best describes what is occurring in the land surrounding the Sahara Desert?
erastova [34]

The correct answer is - A. Desertification is increasing, and the desert is expanding.

The Sahara desert has been expanding in the past decades, and it has started to overtake territory south of it. This is mainly due to climate changes, the precipitation has been decreasing, the temperatures have been rising, so the desert has slowly crippled into the territories that were once steppes and savannas. There is an organized action from the people that leave on the borderline of the desert, where they have been thought some techniques as to how to stop the desert growing, and they have gladly accepted it and work hard on it. Initially it seems that there are positive results, but for sure only the time will tell.

Suppose that you develop the following hypothesis: Some floods in rivers have enough energy to carry large clasts, i.e., particl
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

b. stratigraphically alternating sequences of sandstones, conglomerates, and shales.

Explanation:

It is unlikely that one would find igneous rocks such as basalt and granite in fluvial environments. Coal is also not usually found in fluvial environments. Limestone prefers shallow and calm waters so would not be moved by water normally. This therefore invalidates options a, c, d, e and f.

For the hypothesis to be true, one would need to find conglomerates as these contain large clasts and are present in fluvial environments. Alternating sequences involving conglomerates and sandstones would indeed show that that some floods were able to carry large clasts.
