3- O que acontece quando uma área é irrigada em excesso?​
Natasha_Volkova [10]

\huge  \mathfrak \purple{Question}

O que acontece quando uma área é irrigada em excesso ?

\huge \frak \purple{Answer}

La sur-irrigation peut provoquer un drainage profond de la montée des nappes phréatiques qui peut conduire à des problèmes de salinité d'irrigation nécessitant un contrôle de l'eau par une certaine forme de drainage des terres souterraines. Cependant, si le le sol est sous irrigué, il donne un mauvais contrôle de la salinité du sol, ce qui entraîne une augmentation de la salinité du sol avec une accumulation conséquente de sels toxiques à la surface du sol dans les zones à évaporation élevée. Cela nécessite soit une lixiviation pour éliminer ces sels et une méthode de drainage pour évacuer les sels. L'irrigation avec de l'eau saline ou riche en sodium peut endommager la structure du sol en raison de la formation d'alcaline.

Which of the following statements regarding altitude and climate are TRUE? I. Species composition on different sides of a mounta
True [87]

Answer:

I. and II.

Explanation:

Due to the difference in sunlight and precipitation on the leeward and windward side of a mountain range, the plant and animal species that can survive in each zone may differ considerably.

The rain shadow effect also occurs on the leeward side of the mountain where precipitation is blocked by the mountain range and thus prevented from falling on the far side. On the windward side of a mountain range, precipitation tends to be copious as the water vapour in most air condenses to form rain clouds as it rises up the slopes of the range.

Why are some igneous rocks coarse and others are smooth
Ierofanga [76]

The reason why some igneous rocks are smooth and some are coarse is the manner in which they formed. We can simply divide the igneous rocks into intrusive and extrusive ones.

The intrusive igneous rocks are formed deep into the ground. The magma that has formed this rocks has been exposed to higher temperatures and pressures. That has led to a very slow cooling off of the magma. Because the magma has been cooling off slowly, the crystals had time and the right conditions to grow larger, thus making the intrusive igneous rocks coarse.

The extrusive igneous rocks are formed on the surface. They have been formed by the lava that once it come out on the surface has been exposed to much lower temperatures and pressures. That has led to very quick cooling off of the lava. Because the lava has cooled off quickly, the crystals didn't had time to grow in size, thus they have remained very small, almost unnoticeable, thus making the extrusive igneous rocks smoother.
