The land heats and cools more quickly than water

TiliK225 [7]3 years ago

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The statement that describes a difference between land and water surfaces is that the surface of land heats up and gets cooler quickly that of the surface of the water.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Both land and a water surface get heated due to the solar radiation during the day time and eventually cool during the night time.
  • However, the land absorbs more heat than water because it is quite dark than water surfaces. Darker materials tend to absorb more heat.
  • Water also absorbs heat but most of it is bounced back to the atmosphere.
  • After the land absorbs the heat, it is consumed by the vegetation and most of the heat is also absorbed by the soil. This results in faster cooling than that of water.

Agriculture has no impact on the levels of organic content in soil because organic matter is plowed back into the soil every yea
VashaNatasha [74]
<span>False, Agriculture greatly alters the composition of the organic content of the soil. The soil nutrients completely depend on the crop that has been grown in this location the prior several growing seasons. Many crops use high levels of nitrogen and phosphorus and therefore leave the soil lacking these nutrients. Reworking the left over material into the soil after the crops helps a little but crop cycling is required to really replenish the soil. This would mean planting crops the add nutrients back into the soil such as legumes.</span>
