Question

Which of the following best describes a consequence of clearing land for building?

could use some help

Answer 1

More opportunities for primary succession to take place

A decrease in biodiversity as natural habitats are removed

An increased risk of natural disasters and catastrophic event

Overall better health for the habitat due to improved sanitation

Answer 2

i think it is C

Answer 3

Primary succession is the development of soil and vegetation in an area that was lacking it before. Primary succession normally occurs after the movement of glacier through an area or by the deposition of lava flow

A decrease in biodiversity as natural habitats are removed, well if you are paving an area and removing vegetation you are definitely decreasing biodiversity of that area

An increased risk of natural disasters and catastrophic event, this can also be the case as root systems prevent erosion but it is likely not as applicable to this situation as something is being built on the land.

Overall better health for the habitat due to improved sanitation <- this is just ridiculous

Answer 4

so it is c?

Answer 5

i think C

Answer 6

Hmm...It's B

Answer 7

thanks! #ERAGONFORLIFE! (im obsessed with dragons dont judge)

Answer 8

lol

Answer 9

how anout this one? If the water temperature in a lake drops from 25oC to 10oC, what effect is it likely to have on aquatic animals that have a high demand for dissolved oxygen? (1 point)

They will find it easier to meet their needs for dissolved oxygen.

They will find it harder to meet their needs for dissolved oxygen.

They will leave the lake and find another with warmer water.

They will adapt to the change in temperature and use more dissolved oxygen.

Answer 10

i bet it is B wat u think?

Answer 11

As temperature increases the ability for a to dissolve/the amount of dissolved gas decreases. So what do you think this would mean for oxygen needing animals in warmer water?

Answer 12

they would choke eventually?

Answer 13

due to the lack of O2?

Answer 14

am i correct?

Answer 15

Olo?
