Answer:

contour farming

Explanation:

Contour farming is the method of growing crops on sides of hills, mountains and steep slopes by planting on graduated terraces built into the slope. This method effectively reduce soil erosion and water loss and maximizes arable land area. In most of the systems the contours are low, flat ridge of earth built across the slope, with a channel for runoff water just above the ridge. In areas where soils are able to take in water and rainfall amount is relatively low, level terraces may be used to reduce soil erosion too.

The movement of bone away from the midline of the body is called ________.

mixer [17]

The correct answer is D. Abduction

Explanation:

In medicine, the movement of limbs or bones is classified into different types including abduction, adduction, extension, and circumduction. In this way, adduction occurs when the bone or limb moves towards the middle line of the body or center of it while abduction occurs if the movement makes the bone or limb be away from the center of the body. On the other hand, extension occurs when a movement makes the angle of body parts wider and circumduction occurs when the movement is circular. Considering this, the type of movement in which a bone moves away from the midline of the body is the abduction.

The chromosomal mutation in the zygote can be traced back to which of the following? (4.3, 4.4)Immersive Reader

lawyer [7]

The chromosomal mutation in the zygote can be traced back to "Chromosome 6 in the egg cell".

Option: B

Explanation:

In germ cells i.e. egg or sperm cells, the mutations in chromosome often happen during the meiosis phase. The number of chromosomes in egg cells or sperm cells must be haploid, so that diploid chromosomes form zygote on fertilization. Chromosome mutation in meiosis leads in an additional set of chromosomes or structural defects in the chromosome.

Chromosomal mutations are often caused by chemical agents or by mutagens. The homologous chromosomes are segregated from sister chromatids throughout cell division, any abnormality at this point allows the chromosomes to be unequally divided or not disjuncted, same is observed in the situation seen in egg cell chromosome 6.
