Various weighting schemes are used to prevent data from being misleading. For example, the most common weighting scheme is an average of values, but this can allow one value to be extremely low, while the rest are extremely high, and the averaging will allow the final result to look acceptable. On the other hand, some weighting systems use squares of deviations from the minimum recommended levels, which greatly increases the impact of a low value. Weighting factors may vary between teams of researchers, but are usually set depending on the history of the area and the methodology being done.

C. Grasslands are used for cropland.

Explanation:

The land use change as human population increase when grasslands are used for cropland to support the thriving population.

One problem with thriving human population is the availability of food.

  • To grow more food, new farmlands have to be cleared.
  • In areas where Grassland dominates, they must give way to agricultural fields.
  • Forests must be cleared for crop growing.
  • This leads to loss of natural grassland and replacement by cropland.

explain the role of cellular respiration and decompostion in the carbon cycle. I NEED THE ANSWER QUICK BTW (dont plagiarize)
alina1380 [7]
The goal of cellular respiration is to produce carbon dioxide by using oxygen. The final product can be used later on for photosynthesis.

The second process requires carbon being put back into the process it used to be in, unlike when it was in any dead organism. Waste products are broken down through this never ending product. The main goal of decomposition through the carbon cycle is to free carbon through another process called cellular respiration.
