Answer: B. evaporation, condensation, precipitation
Explanation:
The cycle that ensures that fresh water is available is called the Hydrological cycle and it involves several key processes.
As it is a cycle, none of the processes can be considered first but if any could, it would be evaporation. This is when water on the surface is heated and becomes water vapor (gas) and rises towards the atmosphere.
Condensation occurs as the water vapor rises because the further up you go, the colder it gets. These water vapor particles will thus condense and clump together to form clouds.
These clouds keep getting larger until they are too heavy to be carried by the atmosphere in which case they fall to the ground as rain the process known as precipitation.
Answer:
Viruses and prions are considered microbes.
Some microbes are visible to the naked eye.
Explanation:
Microbes are the tiny organisms that can not be seen with unaided eyes. However, this does not hold true for all and some microbes like <em>Epulopiscium fishelsoni</em> can be seen with unaided eyes. Bacteria, viruses, protozoans, and prions are some of the microbes. Viruses are the microbes that have a protein coat around their genetic material. Prions are proteins that can cause infections. Prions do not have any genetic material.
What I’m going to need more info about that
Controlled population growth.
Explanation:
US is a highly developed country and it has expansive infrastructure and highly mechanized agricultural equipments. So first option is not a choice. Second, access to chemical fertilizers and pesticides in a country with such advanced agriculture infrastructure is very easy. Third US is well known for using GM crops.
US does not have a controlled population growth because if not the birth rate then migration of people to US is a major concern for that country. Thus, this will be a correct choice for the given question.
