A new machine for harvesting corn will allow rows to be planted only fifteen inches apart, instead of the usual thirty inches. C
orn planted this closely will produce lower yields per plant. Nevertheless, the new machine will allow corn growers to double their profits per acre because ________.(A) with the closer spacing of the rows, the growing corn plants will quickly form a dense canopy of leaves, which will, by shading the ground, minimize the need for costly weed control and irrigation(B) with the closer spacing of the rows, corn plants will be forced to grow taller because of increased competition for sunlight from neighboring corn plants(C) with the larger number of plants growing per acre, more fertilizer will be required(D) with the spacing between rows cut by half, the number of plants grown per acre will almost double(E) with the closer spacing of the rows, the acreage on which corn is planted will be utilized much more intensively than it was before, requiring more frequent fallow years in which corn fields are left unplanted
A) With the closer spacing for the rows, the growing corn plants will quickly form a dense canopy of leaves, which will, by shading the ground, minimize the need for costly weed control and irrigation.
Explanation:
If the space among plants is less, the shadow that they are going to produce is going to reduce the need of water, so they production will rise and the cost to maintain the crops will be less, so the producer can double the profits.
In a eukaryotic cell, the process of cellular respiration can metabolize one molecule of glucose into 30 to 32 ATP. The process of glycolysis only produces two ATP, while all the rest are produced during the electron transport chain.
condensation points is the complete opposite of boiling points. Condensation point is when its is so cold that water goes from a gas to a liquid and boiling points is when water goes from liquid to gas because it is so hot. Hope this help! -3-
