What is one way that technology can lead to greater food insecurity?

Biology
1 answer:
Gnesinka [82]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:To increase self-production of food and enhance its food security, Singapore has employed the use of technologies such as vertical farming and aquaponics in urban farming, nutrient recovery from food waste, biodegradable food packaging from durian rinds, natural preservatives, insect farming, microalgae and cultivated.

Many other herbicide resistant transgenic crops are currently under development (e.g., Roundup Ready alfalfa, Roundup Ready lettuce, Roundup Ready rice, Roundup Ready wheat and imidazolinone resistant wheat). ... Crops used for livestock and dairy feed will also be modified for improved utilization by animals.

If biofuels are produced from feedstocks that would have been used for food, then biofuels directly reduce potential food supplies. This reduction occurs even if feedstock price increases result in an expansion of supply because the expanded feedstock supply will typically reduce the supply of other food crops.

Increasing numbers of people often drive up demand for food, which typically results in additional use of arable land and water. This is especially true in the absence of adequate food production technology and integrated programs that simultaneously address community needs for food and reproductive health.

Do you think the wings of a Galapagos cormorant are vestigial structures?
Inga [223]

Answer:

The Galapagos cormorant has vestigial wings that don't help it to fly or swim, though the birds still dry them off in the sun after they get wet, just as if they would if they still could use them to fly. This species diverged into a flightless bird about 2 million years ago.

Which of these is a process during which the hydrosphere interacts with the geosphere?
timofeeve [1]
<span>The correct answer is "Absorption of rainfall by soil." The hyrdosphere refers to all water on the earth's surface. The geosphere, in this context, refers to the solid parts of the earth (rocks, sand, etc.) Since rain is part of the hydrosphere and soil is part of the geosphere, rain soaking into the soil would be an interaction between the two. The other choices deal with changes in the hyrdrosphere, but there is no interaction with the geosphere.</span>
