There are no choices available, however, the possible environmental risk that this situation can give is the depletion of ground water. The amount of water being pumped out from the ground will take time to replenish, hence emptying ground water and possibly mixing sediments trapped inside the cavern of water. This situation can eventually contaminate new ground water that will seep in into the cracks that were dug for irrigation.

saul85 [17]

Answer:

B. food production

Explanation:

In the example above described, salinity conditions (3%) completely prevented radicle development (0 mm). Salinity conditions may alter plant development by inhibiting the uptake of nitrogen, and by limiting water intake. Moreover, it has been shown that the excessive accumulation of chloride ions in plant cells may have toxic effects on plant growth, causing ionic stress and thus leading to nutrient deficiency.
