Answer:
The correct answers are:
1. stratospheric ozone depletion
2. climate change
3. desertification/land degradation
4. freshwater decline
5. biodiversity loss.
Explanation:
1) Stratospheric ozone depletion- ozone layer is the protective layer around the earth that protects us from harmful rays such as UV rays coming from the sun. There are depletions or holes in the ozone layer in some parts of Australia and therefore, therefore leading to skin cancer.
2) climatic change - The change in the average temperature or precipitation of an area that takes place due to global warming that changes the earth's climate is changing rapidly.
3) desertification or land degradation - It occurs due to past overuse of fertilizer or barren land that has zero crop yield.
4 )freshwater decline - freshwater is an essential part of the irrigation of crops in agriculture and due to the downfall of groundwater its decline the freshwater produce in these parts.
5) biodiversity loss - Coral reefs are habitats for many aquatic organisms and used as various ways of biodiversity. If there is a loss or decrease in their numbers it will affect and decline the biodiversity of the area.
Natural selection provides the outline of an explanatory theory." Biologists consider it to be a scientific fact that evolution has occurred in that modern organisms differ from past forms, and evolution is still occurring with discernible differences between organisms and their descendants.
A researcher observing an ecosystem describes the amount of sunlight, precipitation, and type of soil present. The researcher is most likely describing abiotic factors in a prairie.
A and B are incorrect because the factors described are abiotic, not biotic.
Di is incorrect because abiotic factors listed include soil, which is not likely to be described in an ocean environment.
I’m not sure but I think A
