<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.

Degger [83]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The light microscope uses visible light to produce images of objects on its slide while the electron microscope uses beams of electrons to project the image of specimens.  Color is a property of photons of light, hence, the light microscope is able to produce images of specimens in their natural colors </em>

<em>The areas of the specimen on an electron microscope in which the beams of electron pass through usually appear white while other areas appear black. Hence, the electron microscopes can only produce grayscale images of specimens unless a false color is added to make the images visually appealing.</em>

explain how the oceans serve as a carbon reservoir. what are some of the effects of this on marine life?
Sati [7]

Answer:

Carbon pollution is changing the ocean's chemistry, slowing its ability to uptake CO2, making it more acidic, and harming shellfish and other marine life we depend on. The ocean has absorbed about 29 percent of global CO2 emissions since the end of the preindustrial era.Human activities affect marine life and marine habitats through overfishing, habitat loss, the introduction of invasive species, ocean pollution, ocean acidification and ocean warming.
