The rivers that feed a particular inland sea were diverted to irrigate a nearby desert so that the desert could be used to culti

vate cotton. Uncontrolled irrigation resulted in a drastic decrease in the size of the sea, and eventually the sea dried up completely. Many aquatic populations were lost, and the land left behind was covered with salt.
Which of the following solutions would best help restore the ecosystem and prevent it from becoming a desert?
A.
Direct sewage runoff water from local cities into the ecosystem to provide it with nutrient-rich water.
B.
Reconstruct the irrigation system so that water from the river is allowed to enter the ecosystem.
C.
Add synthetic fertilizer to the remaining soil in the ecosystem so that soil fertility increases.
D.
Plant cotton crops in the ecosystem and grow the same crop for at least a decade.

Answer:

The best option here is B)

To reconstruct the irrigation system so that water from the river is allowed to enter the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Without water, there is no life. It doesn't matter how nutrient-rich the place becomes.

Sewage run-off water is completely out of question. Sewage at this point will serve to increase the richness of the area. Besides, sewage contains various other compounds such as methane which may not be suitable for aquatic life.

The best next step is to restore water into the region then gradually re-enrich it's nutritional potential. As the eco-system becomes more suitable for Plankton other higher forms of aquatic life will flow through from the river into the eco-system.

Planktons are a diverse group of organisms which live in large water bodies and can not swim against a current. The plankton comprising individual species are called plankers. Both smaller and larger aquatic species, such as bivalves, fish, and whales, are supplied a vital source of food.

Cheers!

16 POINTS<br> What do men and women today think the other wants MOST in a relationship?
BigorU [14]

Women want to have a permanent emotional connection and bond that lasts a lifetime and expects for the man to fulfill their emotional and physical needs. While men want their physical needs to be satisfied and don’t want the women they love and are with to be stubborn, pessimistic and selfish; a woman who doesn’t take their advice at some moments and goes her own way is a huge downer for any man. Now, in reality women cannot think the same as a man and man cannot think the same as a women. That’s how God made us in complete perfection.

Women nowadays think men are only after a girl for their physical appearance and intimacy, it takes time for a woman looking for a relationship to trust a man so deeply that she’s willing to emotionally attach to him. However, it’s the case for most girls because some do their best to please the man to the extent of changing for them or pleasing them every way possible so they won’t leave. Unfortunately, some women are too dependent. Men on the other hand think women are also superficial or sometimes they think all women are the same and they treat them like so when they want to establish a relationship with her. However, being different is what causes them to make the man chase and want to establish a connection with her.

Also, place your own opinions in the prompt. It could help you a lot. Put instead of “I think” the words “a man/woman who is a gamer thinks...”

Hope this helps you sweetie
