The given is incomplete as the options are missing. The correct options for the given question are as follows-
(A) cultivation of agricultural land inhibits the decomposition of organic matter
(B) nitrogen-fixing bacteria are not as plentiful in agricultural soils because of the use of pesticides
(C) land that is available for agriculture tends to be nutrient-poor
(D) the nutrients that become the biomass of plants are not cycled back to the soil on lands where they are harvested
Answer:
Option (D)
Explanation:
In order to carry out agricultural practices, the soil must be rich in essential nutrients for the growth of crops. The soil fertility is a key role in the production of crops.
This agricultural land often requires a large amount of these nutrients and minerals because some of the nutrient minerals are converted into plant biomass which is then used up to produce energy in other sectors. So, the nutrients that were present in the soil are taken away and not transferred back into the soil. This means that the nutrient cycle gets affected. Due to this reason, there requires a constant supply of nutrients into the agricultural fields.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
Answer:
Yes, the population of rabbits is in genetic equilibrium because both white and brown rabbits have equal chances of survival throughout the year. During the winter season, the brown rabbits stand out and are likely to be eaten by predators, but during the summer, white rabbits stand out and are likely to be eaten.

Answer:
B. 50 mM glucose; E. 300 mM glucose
Explanation:
In order for the cell to shrink the concentration of solutes in the blood should be above normal or higher than the intracellular concentration, so that water moves from the inside of the cell to the outside by the process known as osmosis.
The normal blood levels of NaCl = ~ 154 mM; therefore A, C and D will not cause any shrinkage.
The normal blood levels of glucose = ~ 3.9 to 7.1 mM; therefore water would move from the intracellular to the extracellular space since the solutes are 10x higher outside the cell, causing shrinkage of the cell.
Biodiversity is essential to an ecosystem's resistance against viruses and famine. In history, there has been many cases in which a lack of biodiversity has allowed a virus or disease to endemically wipe out an entire species of plant. This will subsequently affect all consumers of each trophic level. Ex: A disease that attacks the DNA of only one certain species of plant would cause decreases in the population of the organisms that rely on eating that plant, the organisms that rely on eating those organisms, and so on. This is caused by a decrease in food source, thus not being able to sustain the ecosystem's demand, thus naturally killing off any organisms that would not be able to find a sufficient food source.
True, viral STIs are not curable and can only be controlled with medications
