Answer: B. Precipitation affects the rate at which nutrients are removed from soil.

Explanation:

Soil is an aggregate of minerals, gases, water, and organic matter which supports the life of the plants. The soil is formed by the weathering of the rocks. But the formation and development of soil depends upon factors like temperature of the surrounding environment, rainfall and plants growing on it. The rainfall or precipitation can directly influence the quality of the soil. Too much rainfall can lead to leaching or removal of the inorganic and organic nutrients from the soil. They may make the soil acidic.

B. Precipitation affects the rate at which nutrients are removed from soil.

Soil is known to be a loose mixture of rock fragments, water, organic materials and air that  usually accommodate the growth of vegetation. Thus, formation and development of soil is a dynamic process rather than static and soil is present when pre-historic animals roamed the Earth and some these animals are preserved only fossilized soils buried deep beneath our present soil.

Why do some white blood cells have multi-lobed nuclei? What is the use of multi-lobes? What are they?
Lesechka [4]
White blood cells or WBCs are also known as leukocytes and these are the cells of the immune system. They serve as the soldiers inside our body that fight against infectious diseases and foreign invaders. WBCs are classified into different types. Some of them have multi-lobed nuclei, specifically, the neutrophils. It is the most abundant WBC in the body and they defend against bacterial and fungal infection. They have a multi-lobed nucleus, which consists of three to five lobes connected by slender strands. These multi-lobes are used for phagocytosis. Hope this answer helps.
