Answer:

(B) Abortion, abandonment, and infanticide of males occur regularly.

Explanation:

China's one child policy was formed in 1979 with the aim to curb the increasing population of the country. Considered world's one of the most controversial methods to control population, it permitted couples to have only one child. As the traditional Chinese society preferred male child over female child, one child policy especially hit a blow to female population. Parents started to abort or abandon females because they wanted to have a male child and government did not allow a second child.

This move created a huge imbalance in sex ratio. Number of males increased drastically with respect to number of women. Males were not aborted and did not face abandonment as they were highly valued in society. The program was relaxed in 2013 and allowed rural couples and ethnic minorities to have 2 children and it was finally scraped off in 2015.

Use your understanding of the nitrogen cycle to answer the questions provided.
Archy [21]

Answer:

The nitrogen cycle could not exist without the presence of nitrogen-fixing microorganisms.

Explanation:

As part of the biogeochemical cycles that occur in nature, the nitrogen cycle involves all the organic and non-organic processes that allow the incorporation of this element into the organism of living beings.

Although nitrogen is abundant in nature, in gaseous form, living beings cannot take advantage of it, because they lack the ability to convert this gas into organic nitrogen. Nitrogen-fixing microorganisms -such as bacteria in the soil- turn inorganic nitrogen into organic, that incorporates plants.

Nitrogen-fixing bacteria exist in both soil and plant roots. They are responsible for the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen and ammonium, the product of the degradation of organic matter, into nitrites and nitrates that assimilate the plants. Herbivorous animals obtain this nitrogen from vegetables, and carnivores from them.
