Suppose that the farmer is growing rice crop. If he bought 5 kg seeds at Rs. 100 per kilogram, then how much net money will he g
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The net money the farmer will get

= Rs. 39,500

Explanation:

The farmer bought 5 kg seeds of rice at Rs. 100 per kg.

Cost price = 5 × 100 = Rs. 500

And he plants them and harvests 1000 kg of rice grains for sale, which he sells for Rs. 40 per kg

Selling price = 1000 × 40 = Rs. 40,000

The farmer's net profit

= (Selling Price) - (Cost Price) = 40,000 - 500 = Rs. 39,500

Hope this Helps!!!

58:57 What would most likely happen to life on Earth if the carbon cycle stopped? Life would continue unchanged. Life would ceas
Naddik [55]

Answer: Life would cease to exist.

Explanation:

The carbon elements is one of the most important elements in the compound that make up living organisms. It is found: in the remains of living organisms; as fossil fuels such as coal, coke and natural gas; as inorganic salts such as carbonates; in water bodies and as gas carbondioxide which makes up 0.03% of air.

Carbon is continuously being circulated in the atmosphere through a process called the CARBON CYCLE. This involves the removal and addition of carbon to the carbondioxide in the atmosphere.

Life would indeed cease to exist if this carbon cycle stops due to the importance of carbon to functioning of living organisms. Important processes which bring about the recycling of carbon between living ( biotic) and non living (abiotic) components of an ecosystem are:

--> photosynthesis: the process used by green plants to remove carbon through carbondioxide from the atmosphere for manufacturing of their food.

--> respiration: animals respire to break down sugar leading to liberation of carbondioxide and water as wastes

--> and decay: decomposers feeds on remains and waste to bring about decay, thus complex carbon compounds are broken down to set free carbondioxide which returns to the atmosphere.

All the above processes are carried out by living organisms to maintain a functioning ecosystem by enabling a linear flow of energy through it.

What was the purpose of applying the rooting medium? Why was it applied to only one of each set and not to all of the plants?
sveticcg [70]

by using rooting harmone  roots develop quickly at cutting and and it become  more robust than cuttings which don't receive rooting hormone. Cutting harmone is used mostly on ornamental plants in the landscape and to propagate succulents.

It cannot apply on whole plant since it will not mix with old one and a new catergory or plant will develop and it will distroy the originality of the actual plant
