<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Several flood mitigation techniques can be used by federal governments. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Diversion of flood water and its storage is a method that can be used for flood mitigation.</em> Floodwaters can be diverted to canals, reservoirs, floodplains etc.

Thus water can be kept out of inhabited areas. Federal governments can enact legislation to establish floodwater and storage.  <em>Restoration of streams and floodplains is another method that can be used to mitigate floods. </em>

<em>Low impact development and green infrastructure store water and thus helps preventing floods. This is another method to mitigate floods.  </em>

ad-work [718]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Green Plants are the main producers of starch as carbohydrate.In order to carry out this  special organelle Chloroplast are specially adapted  for this purpose,

Green plant are made up of Chlorophyll which are the green pigments that for trapping sunlight for the synthesis of starch to occur.

Photosynthesis is the process of synthesis of the starch.It involves the reaction of C02 with water  in the presence of sunlight  and enzymes to give oxygen as the byproduct, and Starch( carbohydrate) as the main product.

This process occur in two pathways the light dependent pathways and the light independent pathways,

Green plant and some organisms phytoplankons,algea are capable of producing starch  through photosynthesis because of the green pigment they possess.Therefore they are said to be Autothrophic.
