Answer:

Explanation:

Crop rotation

Rotation of crop is important to help conserve nutrients that are available in the soil and prevent total use up of the nutrients. The same type of plants all year round on the same soil keeps on draining the land of the same nutrients needed for their growth. Rotation of different can help maintain soil nutrients level as some crop fixes nutrients in the soil.

Natural mulching

The use of cover cops as mulch helps protect the soil and allows for retention of nutrients. When cover crops are harvested the leaves can be turned back into soil to release nutrients that are stored up in the plant part.

Composting is the process of decomposing organic matter this could include animal waste such as dung,leaves both green and dead, kitchen. This waste are stored up, little water is added to moist and then allow to decompose it can be mixed together after few days to aerate after. After decomposing to form compost it can be added to the soil. It is usually rich in nutrients.

In a particular population of mice, certain individuals display a phenotype called "short tail," which is inherited as a dominan
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The "short tail" dominant allele is easier to eliminate by selective breeding.

Explanation:

The only way for a recessive allele to be expressed (be visible) is when it appears as recessive homozygotic. These means the organisms need to have 2 copies of the gene. Selective breeding is based on the characteristics that one can see, so if the organism shows the "dilute" phenotype you can keep reproducing this individuals and get rid of the dominant allele.

On the other hand if you have a population with the dominant phenotype, you discard all the ones that have a recessive trait and you breed the dominant phenotype you could still get individuals with the recessive phenotype and individuals that express the dominant phenotype but are heterozygous.

Plants adapted to the desiccating effects of the land environment and increased ultraviolet radiation with the evolution of ____
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

e. ​cutin

Explanation:

Plant exhibit many variations to withstand the temperature variations, desiccation and increased UV exposure which are some of the factors associated with land habitat. Cutin is a waxy substance that is found in the outer walls of the epidermal cells of plants. Cuticle in plants serves to make the outer most covering of aerial parts of the leaves and non-woody stem of herbaceous plants. The cuticle is made of cutin.

Cutin serves to protect the plant’s aerial surfaces from excess water loss. It also filters the excess UV light and thereby protects the underlying plant parts. The thickness of the cuticle varies in different plants depending upon the environmental conditions. The leaves of plants adapted to hot, dry climates have thick cuticles. The thickness of the cutin layer also varies in different parts of a plant. For example, the upper epidermis of leaf generally has a thicker cuticle than the shaded and relatively cooler lower epidermis.
