Where do the primary threat to rivers come from?

Biology
1 answer:
Lisa [10]3 years ago
3 0

The main threats to river basins (the entire area drained by a river) continue to mount.

Construction of large dams and physical alterations of river flow by straightening and deepening of river courses.

This disrupts the natural flooding cycles, reduces flows, drains wetlands, cuts rivers off from their floodplains, and inundates riparian habitats, resulting in the destruction of species, the intensification of floods and a threat to livelihoods in the long term.

Food couldn't reach the stomach without the blank and the blank
Inessa05 [86]

<u>Answer:</u>

Food could not reach the stomach without the "esophagus and the throat".

<u>Explanation:</u>

Esophagus is like an elastic pipe, about 25 cm in length. It passes food from the throat back towards the stomach. There's the trachea at the back of the mouth which enables air to come in and out of the body. Once food in the form of a small ball of mushed-up food or liquids is ingested, the epiglottis slips down the opening of the windpipe to ensure that the food reaches the esophagus and not the windpipe.
