<u>ANSWER:</u>

Ogallala aquifer supplies "one-third of the irrigation water" in the United States.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • The "Ogallala aquifer" is located in the "Great Plains of the United States" and therefore gives life to almost all fields of the US.
  • The aquifer supplies water for one-third irrigation needs of the United States. The Ogallala is an underground reservoir and is very big in size and the agriculture production in the US is dependent on this aquifer.
  • The aquifer is however depleting and water level in many areas has become very low.
  • It is important for United States to protect and preserve this aquifer so that the agricultural production does not suffer.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

The bacteriostatic antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which prevents the growth of bacteria. These keeps the growth of bacteria in the stationary phase so that bacteria cannot cause harm to the host.

The bactericidal antibiotics can be defined as those antibiotics, which kills the bacteria.

The example of bacteriostatic antibiotic is Tetracycline  that it inhibit the bacteria ribosome production of proteins. This way bacterial growth and reproduction will get restricted.

The example of bacteriocidal antibiotic is polymyxin B. It causes injuries to the plasma membrane of the bacteria which can be lethal for bacteria.

Species selection. Species selection is the process by which intrinsic biological characteristics in organisms change depending on the type of environment they're interacting with. In this case, the subsequent generations of the fly lost the ability to fly because their environment didn't require them to use wings for survival, hence they stopped growing them and subsequently lost the ability to fly.
