Answer:

Growing more vegetation

Explanation:

Soil erosion by wind occurs anywhere when vegetation and climatic conditions are conducive. These conditions include presence of very strong winds and when the soil is loose, dry, and is composed of fine granulated particles.

It also occurs when the soil surface is relatively smooth and there is sparse or no vegetative. It can also occur where there are large fields with no windbreak mechanisms in place.

The best way to reduce wind erosion is to keep the wind off the soil surface by covering the soil surface. This involves growing of more vegetation, either cash crops or cover crops which serves to protect the soil and keep the winds higher off the surface.

Also trees can be planted around the farms to serve as wind breaks which breaks or reduces the force of the winds.

Also, soil compaction which is the process of increasing the density of soil by packing the soil particles closer together causing a reduction in the volume of air can help to prevent wind erosion.

From the given options above, the best option would be growing more vegetation.

Practicing crop rotation serves to preserve soil nutrients and prevent diseases.

Decreasing riverbank slopes prevents erosion by water.

Avoiding soil compaction would lead to more erosion by wind.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The given question says that a student has constructed a model of cellular transport using fences and several gates.  

This model can be used to demonstrate the cellular transport.

The gates of the fences can be supposed as the protein pumps and the other fence demonstrates the lipid bilayer.  

Let’s suppose in the fence, there are many cattles, and outside, there are less cattles, but the student open the gate and bring more cattles inside the fence. In this case, the transport of the cattles is similar to the active transport of the molecules using protein pumps. At cellular level, the energy for the active transport is provided by ATP molecules.

Now, let’s say, the student wants to feed the cattles with some nutrition rich food, which can help in maintaining the health of the cattles. The student fills his car with the cattle food and he enters inside the fence through gates. In this case, the food was not present in the fence, but was abundant in the outside environment, so, the diffusion would occur. But food cannot come self, without help of others, so, the movement is facilitated by the car, as it is done by the carrier proteins. Hence, it is an example of facilitated diffusion.
