Answer:
a) What evidence in the article supports the claim that this is a severe problem?
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Desert farming is the practice of developing agriculture in deserts. Agriculture can be defined as the act of irrigation, water supply and farming.
The desert farming is different from the other types of farming and it has been practiced by the person living there.
These practices are to be used very precisely as the water is not available in a plenty amount. Taking into consideration drip irrigation is used in the desert and dry areas.
Drip irrigation can be defined as the modern method by which the micro-irrigation technique in which the water and the nutrients are saved and it allows the water to drip slowly into the roots of plants.
Answer:
- Ecological levels to consider in this study: organism, population and community
- Approach: I would use an observational approach to study this bird species
Explanation:
The levels of the ecological organization include the organism, population, community, ecosystem, and biosphere (from simplest to most complex). In this exploratory study, it is imperative to consider: 1-morphological, physiological and behavioral adaptations of the bird species (i.e., organismal-level), 2- size/density/structure of the bird population (i.e., population-level), and 3-interactions between bird population and other populations (i.e., community-level). The higher ecological levels, i.e., ecosystem-level (relationships between the community and abiotic factors ) and biosphere-level (biosphere = planet Earth), can be in this case disregarded because this study is centered on a focus bird species. Moreover, it is expected to apply an observational strategy because nothing is currently known about the focus bird species. The experimental and modeling approaches seem more suitable to test a particular hypothesis being discussed (it is not the case for this study).
