<u>ANSWER:</u>
Ogallala aquifer supplies "one-third of the irrigation water" in the United States.
<u>EXPLANATION:</u>
- The "Ogallala aquifer" is located in the "Great Plains of the United States" and therefore gives life to almost all fields of the US.
- The aquifer supplies water for one-third irrigation needs of the United States. The Ogallala is an underground reservoir and is very big in size and the agriculture production in the US is dependent on this aquifer.
- The aquifer is however depleting and water level in many areas has become very low.
- It is important for United States to protect and preserve this aquifer so that the agricultural production does not suffer.
The experiment conducted by Paul was not a waste of his time and resources even though he could not accomplish the experiment he initially prepared to conduct. The reluctance of the penguins to eat burgers even though they were starving and losing weight pointed towards the fact that they do not find junk food appealing. It could be concluded from their reluctance that they will eat only their normal diet rather than something they have never eaten before.
Answer:
b. Vernalization
Explanation:
Vernalization is a phenomenon in which plants require low temperature for the flowering. There is either qualitatively or quantitatively dependent on exposure to very low temperature. This process is known as vernalization. Vernalization defines especially to the promotion of flowering by a period of low climate. For example; Vernalisation occurs in biennial plants. Biennials are monocarpic plants which normally flower and may die in the second season. Some common examples of biennials are carrots, Sugarbeet, cabbages, etc.
