The answer to this question would be: by producing buffer

The pH of optimal growth of bacteria might be different. Some bacteria can grow in an acid condition called acidophile, other live in base condition called alkaliphiles and the rest live in neutral pH condition called neutrophiles. The bacteria can maintain their internal pH by producing acid, base or buffer. If the surrounding pH is too acid, the bacteria can reduce the H+ concentration by producing base. If the condition is too alkali/base, the bacteria can produce acid by doing fermentation.

Explanation:

cost

  • ongoing maintenance
  • initial design and construction​

benefit

  • protection of infrastructure
  • lower insurance costs
  • employment opportunities

The flood mitigation projects have initial startup costs and ongoing maintenance costs over the years. However, apart from the costs, these have additional benefits like lower insurance costs due to protected infrastructure and  reduced flood damage, along with employment opportunities during building and maintenance.

Further Explanation:

Flooding usually happens when lots of rainfall occurs in relatively short time periods. These are usually enough to cause rivers to overflow their banks and also occur when storms force large volumes of water from the ocean to travel inland.  Typically these occur in arid ecosystems, having low average rainfall- the water accumulates in dry regions and saturates the area. This phenomena are majorly destructive and can uproot trees, destroy bridges, buildings and other infrastructure while leading to loss of life.
