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.

In your own words describe three key features of a fair test
Ainat [17]

Answer:

In a fair test two or more things are compared. In order for a test to be fair or scientifically sound, children are required to ensure only one thing (this is called a variable) is changed.

For example, if testing which material is the most waterproof by pouring liquid onto a selection of different materials, in a fair test only the type of material (the component you are testing) should be changed. Therefore all other elements (the type of liquid used, the amount of liquid used, the distance the liquid is poured from, the speed at which it is poured and the size of the material) must remain the same each time the test is carried out. It would be unfair or an unscientific test if, for example, 1000ml of water were poured onto a piece of foil and 2ml of milk poured onto a piece of foam – you would not be able to fairly compare the materials. 

hope this will help you!!!.....

During the mitotic cell division the centromeres join the sister chromatids of chromosomes, which are subsequently separated towards opposite poles of the spindle. After cytokinesis, daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes, thereby, in this case, the number of chromosomes will be twenty (20)
