In dry desert areas poor drainage can lead to a buildup of salt in water supplies. A student performed an investigation to study

the effects of salinity on the germination rates of seeds. The student placed seeds in several solutions containing 0% to 3% salt. The length of the radicle, which is the root of the germinating seed, ranged from 49 mm in the 0% salt solution to 0 mm in the 3% salt solution. The data from this investigation suggest that increased salinity in more areas may lead to a decrease in which of the following?
A. air pollution
B. food production
C. oceanic evaporation
D. nonrenewable resource

Answer:

B. food production

Explanation:

In the example above described, salinity conditions (3%) completely prevented radicle development (0 mm). Salinity conditions may alter plant development by inhibiting the uptake of nitrogen, and by limiting water intake. Moreover, it has been shown that the excessive accumulation of chloride ions in plant cells may have toxic effects on plant growth, causing ionic stress and thus leading to nutrient deficiency.

What are the 3 groups of fish
In-s [12.5K]

The 3 groups of fish are:

Jawless, cartilaginous and bony fishes.

Jawless fish were one of the first vertebrates in this world. These fish have no scales, and instead are made of cartilage. Also, like the name says, they have no jaws and no fins. Some jawless fish include hagfishes and lamprey's. These are the only species alive today.

Cartilaginous fish include sharks and rays. Their skeletons are made out of cartilage, similar to the jawless fish. But, they do have jaws and fins. Their bodies are covered with pointy teeth-like scales, which makes their skin rougher than sandpaper.

Bony fish have scales that overlap each other, and instead of cartilage, they have bones like other animals. These scales are made from the same substance as your fingernail. The slimy substance mucus covers the fish (it's in your throat and nose as well), and protects it from other dangerous things. Bony fish are basically 95% of all fish.
