I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The enzyme pepsin that is present in the stomach denature in the intestine due to the alkaline environment of the intestine. This is because pepsin has an optimum pH that is very low which is ideal for the acidic conditions of the stomach.

For which of the following problems would a crop rotation of various grains and legumes be an appropriate solution?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

I and III only

Explanation:

Crop rotation is a farm practice that involves cultivating different species of crops on the same land at different seasons. In other words, the different crops are rotated. Crop rotation is done for various reasons including; improvement of soil fertility, pest and disease control etc.

In this case, a crop rotation of various grains and legumes would be an appropriate solution for the following problems:

- The nutrients in the soil on a farm are being depleted: Legumes are known to be rich in nitrogen and hence add nitrogen to the soil due to the nitrogen-fixing microbes in their roots. Hence, rotating between grains and legumes can help return the depleted nutrients (by grains) to the soil.

- A particular kind of pest is infesting the soil on a farm: Most pests are usually crop-specific, hence, planting only one type of crop can make that soil be infested with a particular kind of pest. However, rotating between crops such as grains and legumes can make a particular pests become scarce or less populated.

Hope this helps! :D

Answer:

C) genetic variation

Explanation:

The answer C is correct because genetic variation is the differences in DNA amongst species in a population. All these dog breeds have their distinct features because their DNA aren't all the same, like how some have big curly hair or short hair.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
