Answer:

Water erosion refers to the removal of the top most or surface layer of soil by the flow of water.  The long term effect of water erosion can be because of drastic rain fall and may be because of flood. These two reasons can adversely effect the human life. The water erosion is responsible for the removal of fertile layer of soil, therefore, the region will not be appropriate to grow vegetation. The long term effect may result in stagnation of water, therefore, long time is required so that the region gets dried. The long term accumulation of water over an agricultural field can spoil the crop production.

Prevention that can be taken to reduce long term effect of water erosion:

1. Plantation of long root bearing trees over flood prone regions and around the agricultural field: This will allow the trees to tightly hold up soil and prevent it's erosion.

2. Add rocks over the soil: In an agricultural field or flood prone area, the rocks will act as barrier for the movement of run off water, hence, will prevent water erosion. It will increase the absorption of water by soil.

3. Building of walls: This will also act as a barrier in a flood prone region and will prevent the water being added up to the agricultural land.

4.Remove soil compaction: If the soil compaction of the effected region is removed, the water retention property of the soil can be improved. Machines, animals and humans can be used for this purpose to remove the compaction of upper layer of soil.

Explanation: hope this helps.

A group of students wants to study the rate of photosynthesis under various conditions. They use a blender to mechanically disru
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The statement that best explains the result would be that <u>the rate of photosynthesis is greatest for direct sunlight and least for the infrared light.</u>

The DPIP will normally replace and play the role of NADPH in the light reaction of the process of photosynthesis. Hence, it will become colorless as a result of reduction and the rate of photosynthesis can be monitored based on the magnitude of the disappearance of the dark blue color.

It means that the more colorless the liquid in the illustration is, the more the rate of photosynthesis. <em>The color change moved from dark blue to clear colorless under direct sunlight, from dark blue to nearly colorless under indirect sunlight, and from dark blue to slightly lighter under the infrared light.</em> <u>This clearly indicates that the rate of photosynthesis is highest under direct sunlight and lowest under infrared light with the indirect sunlight having an intermediate rate. </u>

The correct option is B.

Building blokes of proteins are _____
gulaghasi [49]
The building blocks of protein are C. AMINO ACIDS.

Amino acids are made up of a center carbon atom bound positively to a charged amino group and a negatively charged carboxyl group and a side chain.

The primary structure of a protein is the sequence of an amino acids that are attached together by a peptide bond

The secondary structure of a protein,  the polypeptide is folded through the  mechanisms of amino acids rotating around bonds folding into a helix or a pleated sheet structure and stabilized by a hydrogen bond.
