Why is variety in crop plants important for food security?
aev [14]

Answer:

Disease and Famine

Explanation:

If there is a disease that affects a type of plant, having other types of crops to rely on could save one from starvation. Also, only planting one crop in an area can change the pH and nitrogen levels in negative ways, so that eventually no plants can grow there. Not to mention the obvious balanced diet needed for a healthy body.

Options a, c, d, e are all true statements about the contributions of the cardiovascular system to other body systems except option b which states that “Blood carries carbon dioxide to body tissues and removes oxygen for use by other organs”.  

Actually, the cardiovascular system works together with the respiratory system to supply oxygen to body tissues as blood is circulated in the body, while carbon dioxide is removed from the body at the lungs. <em>In order words, carbon dioxide is removed, while oxygen is picked up as blood is transported through the capillaries of the lungs. </em>
