Answer:

Hydroponics solves the problem of unavailability of water in those arid and dry regions

Explanation:

As rightly stated in the question, hydroponics is a practice that involves the culturing of plants without the need for soil. Hydroponics procedure make use of a moisture-containing solution filled with nutrients.

This procedure of hydroponics, however, comes with some disadvantages but one major effectiveness it has in arid or dry regions is that it SOLVES THE PROBLEM OF WATER UNAVAILABILITY. When it comes to farming practice using soil, constant water supply is an unnegotiable criterion because water is needed for the growth of plants in the soil.

However, in arid regions, which are usually very dry due to lack of rainfall, the practice of hydroponics can substitute for soil farming in order not to cause food scarcity.

Harrizon [31]
<span>Desertification is the cancer of the earth,” Argentine geographer Elena Abraham told IPS. “It is a process of degradation that does not manifest itself in spectacular ways but furtively advances, and by the time it is visible there is nothing to be done, and people have to move away, in search of an alternative.”</span>

If they gave IVs of pure water in the emergency room to people who are dehydrated, what would happen?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The correct answer is: <em>B. blood cells would be in a hypotonic solution, so water would rush into the cell causing it to expand and eventually burst</em>.

Explanation:

Cells have a certain solute concentration that produces an osmotic pressure of aproximately 300 mOsm. For that reason, IVs solutions must have a solute concentration which equals the cell osmotic pressure. That is usually acomplished by using an aqueous solution of NaCl 0.9% w/v or 5% w/v Glucose.

If an IV of pure water is administrated to a person, the blood cells will be in a hypotonic solution. That is, with a concentration lesser than the concentration inside the cells. Due to the difference in concentration, a net flow of water will be produced from the exterior to the cell interior. As the volume of the cell is increased, the cell membrane is damaged and eventually the cell will collapse.

Describe how the following stages occur in a neuron in terms of ion movement across the cell membrane: resting potential, thresh
adell [148]
<span>We have two surfaces of nerve cell the outer and inner surface

- resting : when the outer layer ion charges more positively than the inner layer - depolarization : we have the counter part of this state
- repolarization : return to the polarization
- hyperpolarization : the inner negative ion charges will be more negative even more than the resting potential

I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
