Scrat [10]

Agriculture negatively affects reef ecosystems because the soil and the sea have a direct interaction of substances and minerals that can be altered with the intensification of agriculture.

<h3>What is agriculture?</h3>

Agriculture is a human activity that is based on planting seeds in the ground so that they develop and form plants that have uses such as food or others.

This is one of the oldest activities of humanity and has allowed communities to develop and create trading systems, wooden constructions, navigation, among others.

<h3>What impact does agriculture have on the reefs?</h3>

Agriculture generally takes place in coastal areas or near rivers because the composition of the soil must have certain minerals necessary for plants to grow.

Additionally, the components of the soil go underground to the sea and provide the water with different substances that contribute to marine life. However, the use of pesticides and other agricultural chemicals could reach the sea through runoff and affect the reefs.

Explain how the water cycling through the atmosphere and hydrosphere affects weather and climate. Contrast weather and climate.
masya89 [10]
First, weather is the atmospheric condition occurring over a short period of time in a relatively small location. Climate, on the other hand, is the overall environmental condition over extended periods of time. Next, the water cycle is when water from the surface evaporates as water vapor under high temperatures and condenses in the atmosphere under lower temperatures and precipitates back to the surface. In the event that water evaporates more than it condenses then the weather will be warm to hot, the ground will be relatively dry, and drought over extender periods of time may ensue. On the other hand, if water condenses and precipitates more than it evaporates, then there will be a rainy season, and may extremely lead to landslides and floods.
