Describe two ways that climate change can degrade soil in 3-4 sentences.

8 0

The two ways that climate change can degrade soil are due to carbon dioxide content in soil and its effect on the ecosystem.

Explanation:

When the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the organisms such as microbes in the soil break down the organic matter and causes even more increase in the carbon dioxide content. This leads to the release of greenhouse gases which further releases a large amount of methane which is harmful.

Secondly, there should always be a balance between the soil and the climate otherwise it would affect the natural and semi-natural ecosystems. When there are changes in the distribution of water to the plants it affects the hydro-logical cycle. Thus, climate change will naturally lead to changes in the functions of soil and degradation occurs.

A red blood cell is placed into each of the following solutions. Indicate whether crenation, hemolysis, or neither will occur.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given choices:

Explanation:

The RBC crenation is implied through NaCl by 2,67 percent(m/v) because that solution becomes hypertonic to RBC because of the water within the RBC that passes externally towards the outskirts. RBC thus shrinks.
1.13% (m/v), because the low concentration or osmotic that all this solution shows is hypotonic regarding RBC because of the water which has reached the resulting swelling in RBC.
Distilled H2 implies hemolytic distillation.
Glucose is indicated by crenation at 8.69 percent (m/v).
5.0% (m/v) glucose and 0.9% (m/v) (Crenation is indicated by NaCl.v)
