Answer:

Crops are now immune to many diseases and insects.

Explanation:

The constant advancement of science and technology within agriculture has been very beneficial to the better use of crops and to stimulate a better food supply, which has a beneficial impact not only on the lives of consumers, but also on the economy. One of the greatest benefits presented by this advance in science and technology is the ability to give agricultural crops resistance to pests and diseases. This is possible thanks to genetic engineering and advances in the study of agricultural entomology and microbiology, which have allowed scientists to manipulate plants to resist attack by harmful insects and microorganisms in agriculture. This resistance allows the plants to develop well and to produce products suitable for sale.

C. A decrease in high-tolerance species has occurred

D. Phylogenetic diversity has occurred

E. The biodiversity of the pond has decreased

In ecology, an ecosystem can be affected by adjacent developments including human developments or even other ecosystems and this can lead to positive or negative consequences.

In this context, one example that shows the was an adverse effect is "The biodiversity of the pond has decreased" because the reduction in diversity represents a major thread for an ecosystem as this makes species more vulnerable to disappear. Also, this can be caused by factors such as pollution caused by human development or major predator of the adjacent ecosystem feeding on organisms in the main ecosystem. Besides this, in the first sample, there were multiple species and a reduction in the second sample shows the ecosystem was weakened.

Sonja [21]

Annotation 1:

Practicing cursive script may help develop students' brains too much. Adults (individuals of voting age) with "overdeveloped" brains tend to think too independently. Independent thinking is an undesirable trait of times past and no longer needed in the Alter-Modernism era. You only need to stare into your phone and re-tweet.

  • Constrictive
  • Stable

Siting an example of age-sex pyramids,

In case of the Expansive, population pyramids show that the populations that have a larger number of persons in young age groups. The shape obtained hence is usually with high fertility rates with lower death rates

Then comes, Constrictive population pyramids. These are named so since they are constricted at the bottom. They undue a low percent of young people as compared with other age groups. These type of pyramids show decreasing birth rates.

And at last, Stationary also called as stable population pyramids are the ones which depicts almost equal proportion of the population in each of the all age groups. There is not a decrease or increase in population; it is stable.
