<h3>The aspects of the soil</h3>

In order to determine the aspects of the soil we need to know....

  • Physical Aspect

The texture of a soil is related to the size of the grains that form it. A soil has different amounts of sand, clay, organic matter, water, air and minerals. The way these components are organized represents the structure of the soil. A well-structured soil should be soft and porous allowing the penetration of water and air, as well as small animals and roots.

  • Chemical Aspect

It relates to the nutrients that will be used by plants. These nutrients, dissolved in the soil water (solution), penetrate through plant roots. How we deal in the matter of Macro and Micronutrients.

  • Biological Aspect

It deals with living organisms in the soil, which act on the physical and chemical aspects of a soil. Life in the soil is only possible where air, water and nutrients are available. A soil with the presence of living organisms indicates good soil structure conditions. Soil microorganisms are the main agents for chemically transforming nutrients, making them available for absorption by plant roots.

<h3>Viewing these conditions, my backyard has a sandy aspect.</h3>
  • Features of my backyard
  • Sandy soil

It has a greater amount of sand than the average (contains about 70% sand). They dry quickly because they are very porous and permeable: they have large spaces (pores) between the grains of sand. The water then passes easily between the grains of sand and soon reaches the deeper layers. Mineral salts, which serve as nutrients for plants, go along with the water. Therefore, sandy soils are generally poor in nutrients used by plants. Need correction and fertilization.

the soil in my backyard is sandy.

8_murik_8 [283]
The following are some common procedures that we should take action of when using a bunsen burner to ensure our safety:

1. Wear safety goggles. Tie up long hair and school ties if needed. This can lower the risk of catching on fire. Put a heatproof mat underneath the Bunsen burner, put a tripod and the beaker of water for heating on top of the burner.

2. Close the air hole. Before we start up the burner, the air hole must be closed or green flame (striking back) may occur 

3. light up a match or a lighter. Put it over the chimney. 

4. Turn on the gas tap, you should be able to see a yellow flame now. Remove the lighter or match and open the air hole. We should have a blue flame by now. 

5. the water should start to heat up. Never touch the hot beaker with bare hands.

6. When the water is heated up to the temperature they wanted to, it's time to close the air hole and turn off the gas tap. 

7. If they need to move the hot beaker, use heat protection gloves 

These should be the correct procedures that they should follow in order to heat the water safely. 

Hope it helps!

A young woman sees her doctor with complaints that the bones in her left knee regularly dislocate, or move out of their usual pl
Serga [27]

Answer:

Her knee ligaments are weakened or injured so they can't stabilize the bones

Explanation:

Ligaments are dense connective tissues that serve to connect bones to each other. Ligaments are made by definite arrangement of collagen fibers in particular pattern. Weakening or injury to ligament makes the joints unstable. Since ligaments are not strong enough to hold the bones together, weakened or injured ligaments lead to bone dislocation. The woman with complaint of regular bone dislocation in her left knee must have weak or injured ligaments that can’t stabilize the bones.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Frequency × wavelength

5 × 10 = 50m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation:

Speed = Wavelength x Frequency.

Speed = 5 × 10

= 50m/s
