Answer:
great increases in agricultural productivity
Explanation:
The goal and aim of the drip irrigation method is to cut the volume of water used for irrigation. Usually, normal irrigation involves channeling water into a field in order to provide another option for limited water regime in an area. This procedure wastes water a lot and can cause fertilizers to reach ground water systems. Sometimes, if not correctly applied, they can wash nutrients away from the soil into nearby water bodies.
Israel developed a drip water system which directly applies water in form of drips to farm crops instead of flooding the whole field. This will help to save more water and prevent ground water pollution. Adoption of this method has led a spike in Israel's agricultural productivity and more water has been conserved for other use.
Answer:
oceanic crust diverges from continental crust
Explanation:
An island arc forms where oceanic crust diverges from continental crust.
The loops in Ptolemy's geocentric model, and those shown on the video, are called retrograde motion.
This phenomenon is caused by the Earth's larger orbit than those of other planets.
Ptolemy's model is called geocentric because it puts Earth in the middle of the solar system, and the whole universe in fact. <em>Geo </em>means "earth," and <em>centric </em>means "at the center."
Ptolemy believed that the other planets orbited in a circle (the epicycle) whose center point itself orbited in a circle (the deferent) around the Earth. That would explain why sometimes the planets are observed as going backwards (i.e. in a retrograde motion) when seen from the Earth: half of a planet's epicycle runs in the opposite direction to that of the deferent path. The combined motion therefore appears slower or backwards.
The Earth does not have any orbit in Ptolemy's model; it is stationary while everything else rotates around it. So the answer in the last sentence is probably "larger," by elimination, because an orbit cannot be "fast" or "slow" since it's a trajectory.
