Nestled at the edge of the arid Great Basin and the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains in California, Mono Lake is an ancient saline lake that covers over 70 square miles and supports a unique and productive ecosystem. The lake has no fish; instead it is home to trillions of brine shrimp and alkali flies. Freshwater streams feed Mono Lake, supporting lush riparian forests of cottonwood and willow along their banks. Along the lakeshore, scenic limestone formations known as tufa towers rise from the water's surface. Millions of migratory birds visit the lake each year.
From 1941 until 1990, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP) diverted excessive amounts of water from Mono Basin streams. Mono Lake dropped 45 vertical feet, lost half its volume, and doubled in salinity.
The Mono Lake Committee, founded in 1978, led the fight to save the lake with cooperative solutions. We continue our protection, restoration, and education efforts today with the support of 16,000 members --and we host this Website.
In 1994, after over a decade of litigation, the California State Water Resources Control Board ordered DWP to allow Mono Lake to rise to a healthy level of 6,392 feet above sea level--twenty feet above its historic low. It is rising toward that goal -- click here for the current lake level, or visit one of the other links on this page for more of the Mono Lake story.
Explanation:
Scientist disputes the claim that the Loch Ness monster exists beyond folklore because no one has truly seen them. Loch Ness monster in Scottish folklore is a monster that resides in the Scottish highlands in Scotland.
Scientists follow methods to substantiate a claim. A body of evidence must be available to justify an observation in the scientific realm.
No clearcut picture of the monster has been taken.
The monster is merely a folklore myth just like dragons.
Science does not work with hearsay and claims that cannot be substantiated and proven.

Answer:
Munchausen syndrome by proxy
Explanation:
Munchausen syndrome by proxy, is a form of child abuse, and is classified as a mental illness. This illness affects the caretaker of a child (in most cases, it affects the mother), where the caretaker will fabricate symptoms or cause visible symptoms so that the child can appear sick.

Answer:
50%
Explanation:
(TT) Is fully tall. (TS) Is medium. So it can be assumed that (SS) is short. When forming a cross, you cross TT and TS to generate a phenotypic ratio of 1x1 or a genotypic ratio of 1 TT, 1 TS. Making it exactly split in half in 50/100.
Hope this helps!
