3 0

Answer:

Occurrence of mud slides after heavy rains.

Explanation:

Soil erosion is defined as the removal of top soil from the land and it affects the fertility of the soil. It is also known as soil degradation.

Soil erosion has both short-term and long-term damage. Short-term damage of erosion includes the occurrence of mudslides after heavy rains which is called landslide. It is a short-term damage because landslides took long-duration to happen and when happened it can be shortly recovered using machines.

Hence, the correct answer is "the Occurrence of mudslides after heavy rains."

Which of the following statements about osmosis is correct?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

D. The presence of aquaporins (proteins that form water channels in the membrane) should speed up the process of osmosis.

Explanation:

Water moves in the cells through osmosis which means water moves from its higher concentration to lower concentration. In many animals and plants, water channels are also present which is called aquaporins which allow the water to move through it in and out of cell more quickly.

The rate of diffusion by channel proteins is higher than simple diffusion therefore the aquaporins speed up the process of osmosis. No ATP is required to transport the water through aquaporin channel proteins.

How does crossing over in meiosis result in genetic variation?
Aneli [31]

Cross over is the first  way genes are shuffled to give rise to genetic diversity. Cross over takes place in sexual  reproduction.  The normal way that cross over occurs is chromosomes line up side by side and break off pieces of themselves, then trade those pieces with each other.

If they break the pieces at the same locus in the sequence of base pairs, the result is an exchange of genes called  genetic recombination and it ensures that the daughter cells produced  have a different genetic makeup from the parent cell and thus diversity occurs.
