Asthenosphere, one of the earth's mechanical layers is most easily deformed.

Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The layer named Asthenosphere is the one which can easily be deformed due to its semi solid (mostly fluid) state. It is often regarded by Geologists that, the asthenosphere is the weakest of all the other layers of Earth.

According to Plate Tectonic theory, the Continental plates float over this layer, hence they often collide with each other giving rise to physical features. The other layers like, Crust, Core and the Mantle are relatively strong and are not easily destructible when compared to Asthenosphere.

Irrigation machinery has __________ the amount of irrigated land in the US.
Shkiper50 [21]

Irrigation machinery has <u>quadrupled </u>the amount of irrigated land in the US.



Irrigation refers to the act of artificially providing water to land to support the development of crops. It is an antiquated agrarian system and may have been honed as ahead of schedule as 5000 B.C. along the banks of such consistently flooding streams as the Nile. Channels were burrowed to broaden the region secured by the surge, and dams were raised to trap water on the land after the floodwaters had died down. The advancement of preoccupation dams and of water-lifting machines allowed the water system of terrains lying over those typically come to by floodwaters. Remainders of these antiquated structures have been found in Egypt, where all farmlands are flooded; Iraq; Lebanon; Syria; China; India; Peru; Mexico; and the United States. Present day water system frameworks are as yet in view of these two key building developments.
