Answer:

Natural watersheds are naturally occurring pathways that leads rain water or snow into the lakes/streams/dams. the land topography determines the direction and velocity of the water flow. In natural occurring watersheds there is little to no nutrient loss

Clear cutting is the process of cutting down trees in a specific area. The removal of all trees exposes causes a number of problems such as soil erosion, washing away of nutrients due to the lack of trees that normally hold the water, and increased stream flow.

Answer:

A watershed is a region obtaining both land and water. This is a shallow land region which accumulates water from drainage obtain from different sources like lake, river and pond.  A watershed may also develop in a forest ecosystem. The clear cutting of forest will result expose more amount of soil nutrients for erosion by water as compared to natural forest. Therefore, nutrient loss will be higher in clear- cut watershed than natural forest watershed.

Answer:

Option C, No. The energy contained within these macromolecules is converted into other forms of chemical energy and kinetic energy, though some is lost as heat.

Explanation:

Breaking down of large molecules in to smaller molecules does not signify breaking down of energy stored in it and hence losing all the stored energy.  

Breaking down of large molecule is necessary to convert large molecules into small easily digestible molecules so that the food energy stored in them can be  stored  in some other form specifically chemical energy and can be used at later stages. However, in the process of conversion of large molecules into small molecules , a certain amount of heat energy is used.

Hence, option C is correct

What are some non examples of microclimate?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Microclimates exist, for example, near bodies of water which may cool the local atmosphere, or in heavy urban areas where brick, concrete, and asphalt absorb the sun's energy, heat up, and re-radiate that heat to the ambient air: the resulting urban heat island is a kind of microclimate.
