Explanation:

According to the article there are so many problems with the mono-culture are:-

1.Soil erosion

2.Loss of genetic diversity

3.Increased Pesticide use

4.No crop rotation increases fertilizer use

5.Fossil fuel energy replace muscle power

The major problem of mono-culture farming is the variety of species. Mono-culture where the same species is grown year after year, soil structure and quality is poor. It disrupts the natural makeup of the soil and contributes further to nutrient depletion. Mono-culture also creates diseases, which have to be treated with yet more chemicals.

One of the major problems of monoculture farming is the variety of species. If there are no varieties in the producer level in the food chain all other organisms within the ecosystem would be affected.

which one of the plants pictured below was given water mixed with salt, and which one was given pure water? Explain how you know

ludmilkaskok [199]

The plant on the right must have been the one given a saltwater mixture while the one on the left must have been given pure water.

<h3>Osmosis</h3>

Looking at the attached image closely, one would see that the plant on the right has withered leaves while the leaves of the plant on the left seem to be flourishing.

The plant on the right must have been the one fed with water mixed with salt and here is the reason. Adding water mixed with salt to the soil on which the plant grows will decrease the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the plant into the soil through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become flaccid, and hence, the withered leaves.

On the contrary, the plant on the left must have been fed with pure water. Feeding the soil with pure water will increase the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the soil into the plant through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become turgid, and hence, the flourishing leaves.
