Answer:
D. lower yields of fruit crops, due to decreased pollination
Explanation:
Pesticides are used to kill or stop the growth of insects that are harmful for crops but use of pesticides reduces biodiversity by killing a wide variety of insects.
Insects are one of the important component participate in the process of pollination that increases the biodiversity. insects move from one flower to other flower and spread pollen for reproduction. Due to pesticides some of the insects important for pollination got killed and reduces the pollination process. If pollination process will decrease, it will impact lower rate of reproduction of fruit crop.
Hence, the correct option is "D. lower yields of fruit crops, due to decreased pollination".
Answer: A. Increase in temperature
Coastal upwelling is the process in which the deep water rises above the top most water level as the wind pushes water offshore. Nutrients which are present in the bottom layer get available to organisms living in the uppermost layer. The deeper water lacks oxygen because the decomposition of organic matter at the bottom of the water body consumes up available oxygen. Also, because of these water layer turnover will result in thermocline: temperature variation among the layers of water. Bottom layer water because of such decomposition processes will have more temperature when this water rises in the upper layer due to upwelling this will increase the temperature of the upper layer.
