Biology

Gnom [1K]3 years ago
5 0

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.

What role did mycorrhizae play in the transition of plants to land?
Colt1911 [192]
Mycorrhizae are associations between fungi and the roots of plants, where the Fungi provides minerals to the plant. It enabled plants and fungi to be the first organisms to invade land successfully 430 million years ago. In most cases the relationship between host plants and the mycorrhizal fungus is mutualistic, or mutually beneficial. The Mycorrhizal fungi come into direct contact with plant roots and with the soil, adding to the plants ability to gather nutrients and water from the soil through the fungus.

As a result of the experiment scientists did with Mexican tetras, it seems likely that their first hypothesis about blindness in
Katena32 [7]

<em><u>Sample Response:</u></em> The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis. As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased. Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

Do you think rain amounts can affect soil type?
Zielflug [23.3K]
Yes, I do think so. I believe the rain can break up the soil depending on the type of soil as well as rain amounts. If it doesn't rain much in California their soil might be dry and brittle, but id it rains in South Carolina theirs might by softer and moist.

The relatively long half-life of lipid soluble hormones (steroid hormones) compared to water soluble hormones is due in part to
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The transport protein-hormone complexes of lipid soluble proteins can not cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are water-insoluble (hydrophobic) in nature. Since blood has watery medium, the plasma, the lipid-soluble hormones travel in blood through transport proteins. The transport protein-hormone complexes are too large to cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus. The impermeability of the filtration membrane of glomerulus for protein-hormone complexes increases the half-life of lipid-soluble proteins.
