The state of Florida purchased farmland from landowners in the Everglades to stop farming activities there. The farmlands were o
nce wetlands that were drained for growing crops. The state also removed structures that had previously disrupted the water’s natural flow. What will most likely happen if farming stops and water flows on this land again? A. Populations of native wetland plants will recolonize the land. B. Populations of native wetland animals will emigrate from the land. C. The community of organisms currently living there will remain the same. D. A new community of woodland organisms will develop through primary succession.
A. Populations of native wetlands plants will recolonize the land.
Explanation:
From many years' wetlands are converted into farmlands as they provide retention of soil, proper food and clean water, and the cycling of nutrients. But wetlands should not be permanently converted<em> because it can increase the load on soil and add pollutants (pesticides or fertilizers) in the soil and groundwater.</em>
If the farming stops and water flows on the land again, the native plants present in wetlands will help to recolonize the land which is disrupted by farming activities.
It makes sense that cell membranes are made of phospholipids because water cant mix in with lipids, so the phospholipids will be able to effectively block out any unwanted water or chemicals suspended in water outside of the cell.
