Explain how deforistaion can permanently increas an area risk of flooding

Biology
1 answer:
stepladder [879]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Deforestation is both the removal of trees and the permanent retasking of the land for non-forestry purposes. Therefore, since tree roots help aerate soil and improve soil water retention, this permanent removal of trees reduces the amount of water that soil can absorb and increases the amount that will perforce flow over the ground as runoff. Increased surface runoff leads to flooding.

Which statement directly describes the cells produced by meiosis
kogti [31]

Answer:

The statement '<em>the genetic material of the original cell is divided among the new cells</em>' describes how cells are produced in meiosis process.

<u>Explanation: </u>

<em>In meiosis a single cell is divided into twice to form four cells and it contains the original half amount of 'genetic information'.</em> In meiosis, the two cells are called daughter cells are produced, and each identical cells to the parent cell meiosis are produced four haploid cells and mitosis are produced two diploid cells.

<em>The meiosis cell division is to reduces the number of 'chromosomes' in the parent cell by its half portion and also they produce four gamete cells.</em> In this process they required to produce 'eggs and sperm' cells for the sexual reproduction .It is the main aim to make a daughter cells with same half so many 'chromosomes' as the starting cell.

Hey y'all I need help with this bio question: what are the pros and cons of different skin tones in different parts of the world
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Oh this one is so cool!

It basically all boils down to Vitamin D! We need this essential vitamin to help our body build hormones and regulate calcium. Our bodies make Vitamin D when we are exposed to the UV rays found in sunlight. But as we all know, too much sunlight isn’t good because these UV rays can harm us. Melanin (the chemical that our bodies produce to darken skin tone and hair color) provides protection from UV rays by absorbing them. However, this means that the more melanin that is produced by someone’s body results in less absorption of UV rays and a decrease in Vitamin D production. But for someone living around the equator or in the tropics that doesn’t matter because there’s lots of sun all the time. So for humans living in these areas where there’s lots of sunlight year round, it’s beneficial to have darker skin to protect from the harm of UV rays. People living in these areas still get plenty of Vitamin D though because of that year round sunshine.

Now what about those who’s skin has less melanin, such as those found in the higher latitudes? Well with less sunlight year round, their bodies had to adapt to be able to get enough Vitamin D. So less melanin is produced by the body in order to absorb the lesser amounts of UV rays to make Vitamin D. Lighter skin is, therefore, more beneficial the farther away you go from the tropics.

So essentially:
Pro of Darker Skin tones
-Protection from harmful UV rays

Con of Darker Skin tones
-Less absorption of UV rays and less production of Vitamin D

Pro of Lighter Skin tones
-Greater absorption of UV rays and more Vitamin D production

Con of Lighter Skin tones
-Less protection from harmful UV rays (resulting in sunburns and, in extreme cases, skin cancer)

This is of course the biology answer. The social impacts of different skin tones is a whole different story that you can ask in the history section.
