No I don’t think it is possible because we barely made a dent in the earths crust and if we were able to drill through the crust we would reach a lava layer that would kill you

Answer:

No, it is not possible to travel to the earth's center which is about 6400 km. As we go below the earth's surface, the pressure and the temperature increases with depth and this we call it as the geothermal gradient (i.e change in pressure and temperature with depth), which is approximately 25° C/km. Due to this extreme pressure-temperature condition, life is impossible to exist at that huge depth.
No, it is physically not possible to inspect the rocks that are present in the mantle are worth high cost of drilling as it is not possible to drill down the crust more than about 10-12 km. Moreover, the materials in the mantle are denser at the bottom and lighter at the top and at this huge depth, drilling is totally impossible.
Geophysicists plays a dynamic role in studying the earth'r interior. In addition to that, they also study about the P and S-waves that generates at certain depth and also its different types.

Note- P wave is Primary wave

S wave is Secondary wave

Biological control methods for managing insect pests are effective for reasons that include which of the following? They promote

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Option B, They generally focus on one target insect to ensure that the target insect population remains low.

Explanation:

Biological pest control methodologies are focused towards a specific species of pest and do not harm the non-targeted species. These methods are environment friendly and do not produce any harmful residues. Also they do not develop any kind of resistance in species due to which the same bio pesticide can be used again and again. Since these methods have high specificity, they may require usage of two or more bio pesticides all together.

Hence, option B is correct

malfutka [58]

Lll. a limited supply of necessary resources. If there isn't enough resources the species will have to learn to adapt to be able to gather the new food supply they need. Such as birds and there beaks, if the insects population went down and that was the main food supply for that type of bird they would have to be able to adapt in order to survive, so evolution occurs. Over time that bird would change to adapt to its new feeding source.

Hope this helps!
