Answer:

D. Less erosion by wind and runoff will occur on farms with cover crops than on farms without cover crops.

Explanation:

A cover crop is a crop planted to protect the soil from erosion, diseases, etc rather than to produce crop yield.

This type of crop has prevention of soil erosion on the farmland among one of its many functions. Other functions include increasing soil quality, suppress weeds, etc.

Cover crops prevent erosion by reducing the amount of water that is drained off a land because of its deep roots which enables water to be sieved from the ground. Their residue is left on the land to prevent excess water runoff, thereby protecting the land from erosion during heavy rainfall.

Some examples of cover crops are legumes and grasses.

Therefore, farmers in Blackland Prairie that leave their farms bare are more at risk of erosion than farmers that plant cover crops.

7. What causes greenhouse gasses to absorb heat when gasses like oxygen do not?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Hope the below helps!

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases (such as methane, carbon dioxide etc) have lots of vibrating particles. These molecules eventually release radiation, which travels up Earth's atmosphere (because warm air rises), is trapped and adds to the greenhouse gas effect.

Oxygen and nitrogen don't interfere with infrared waves in the atmosphere. That's because molecules are picky about the range of wavelengths that they interact with.

I have attached a diagram that shows the greenhouse effect. It might help to visualise this.
