Biology
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D.) It can lead to an increased risk of parasite infection.

Explanation:

Monoculture is a system of farming or cropping whereby a single crop is planted on a given area of land. The opposite of this system of farming is known as multiple cropping, where a variety of crops are cultivated.

One disadvantage of planting a variety of crops over a single crop in monoculture is that it increases the risk of parasite/pest attack on the crops. Parasites and pest can easily shift to the variety of crops planted in the farm.

We need producers to survive, otherwise the Earth would be carbon dioxide rich and we humans couldn't breath it.

9966 [12]
The water would freeze across the surface of the lake, blocking the dissolving of oxygen and nutrients. <span>Water is actually less dense when frozen, which is why ice cubes and ice bergs all float. This is also why you can ice skate on a lake if the ice gets thick enough on the surface. Many organisms that live in freezing lakes have special adaptations which help them survive.</span>
