Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

In no-till farming method, the farmer usually uses a no-till planter with the help of which they make a narrow type of trench that is sufficient enough for the seed to be grown in rows. The residue of the cover crop is allowed to place on the surface of the soil by not plowing, as a result of which the soil is protected from getting eroded and losing of moisture content. This improves soil quality.

This method helps in increasing the water content that percolates down into the soil, holding the organic matter and recycling of nutrient matters. It also expands the growth and population of microbes in the soil, which provides more nutrients to the soil and increases the fertility of the soil.

Thus, when a farmer leaves plant stalks in the field to reduce soil erosion, then it is known as no-till farming.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).

Answer:

Adding a lake near any town will most likely increase rainfall because of the added water, and water vapor levels will also increase. Because of the excess water in the environment, more water will be found in the surrounding atmosphere (the same reason precipitation will increase in the area.)

What would happen if one of the chromosomes in a homologous pair failed to separate from its homologue at the end of metaphase I
Zepler [3.9K]

The correct answer is: daughter cells will have abnormal chromosome numbers and this condition is called aneuploidy.

Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes (or sister chromatids) to separate during the process of cell division and consequently lead to aneuploidy. There are three forms of nondisjunction:  

• Nondisjunction in meiosis I (pair of homologous chromosomes unable to separate in meiosis I),  

• Nondisjunction in meiosis I (sister chromatids unable to separate during meiosis II), and

•  Nondisjunction in mitosis (failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis)

Before solar energy can become a competitive form of energy available for consumers, which of the following events must occur? A
expeople1 [14]

The answer is; D


Solar cells usually convert solar energy into electricity which could later be reserved. The efficiency of solar cells is still low, compared to other sources, with a conversion rate of 15% - 22%. This reduces the attractiveness of solar cells as a competitive source of energy. This also makes this form of energy expensive due to its inefficiency.
