The drinking water in a location in Florida had a foul odor and taste. Investigations revealed that storm runoff had carried hug
e amount of soil into the water bodies in the location. What are people in the location most likely to do to prevent the water pollution? A.) construct their properties slopes towards canals and roadways to prevent collection of soil
B.) plant trees along canals and roadways on their property to filter runoff and prevent soil erosion
C.) remove fences on their property to allow storm water to flow out easily towards canals and roadways
D.) pave their garden and remove all plants to reduce the amount of soil flowing into canals and roadways
Answer: <span>B) Plant trees along canals and roadways on their property to filter runoff and prevent soil erosion
--------
The roots of trees help prevent the soil from being easily eroded by holding the soil in place and taking up the water. The other choices, A, C, and D would cause further erosion by removing objects that would stop the rain or by aiding erosion due to gravity. </span>
Halophiles are a
type of archaea and are considered salt lovers. Halophile organisms thrive in extreme environments thus they are also called extremophile organisms. They can be found in places with high salt content.
Trick question. Bacteria do not have cell walls. They barely have cell membranes. The second blank might be either chemosynthetic (break down chemicals for food) or photosynthetic (generate food from sunlight).
The breakdown of foods into forms that can be transported to cells and absorb into these cells(this process has two parts): Mechanical(breaks down large pieces of food into smaller ones) and Deglutition(swallowing).
