Describe the pattern of soil degradation in the United States. How does the severity of soil degradation in the southeast compare with that in the plains states from Texas and the Oklahoma panhandle up through Kansas, eastern Colorado, Nebraska, and Iowa to the Dakotas
Answer:
Abstract
Soil can be degraded by several natural or human-mediated processes, including wind, water, or tillage erosion, and formation of undesirable physical, chemical, or biological properties due to industrialization or use of inappropriate farming practices.
The more intense the farming, and the longer a region has been farmed, the worse the soil degradation.

Which flowchart best explains how a change in ocean temperature, such as
occurs during El Niño or La Niña, could affect weather in another part of the
world?
O A. Ocean - Weather - Clouds - Wind
O B. Coriolis effect - Atmosphere - Wind - Ocean
O C. Weather - Atmosphere Wind – Ocean
O D. Ocean - Atmosphere -
Wind - Weather
Answer:
D. Ocean - Atmosphere - Wind - Weather
Explanation:
The El Nino (warm) and La Nina (cool) are the opposing phases of climatic patterns in the tropical pacific ocean and take place every 3 to 7 years. Combined they are called ENSO. First, in the El Nino ocean temperatures in the eastern tropical pacific ocean rise above average and this leads to rainfall over Indonesia and storms in central pacific. This rising air increases the air motion and leads to dryness and high surface pressure during the La Nina phase this condition gets reversed. During the El Nino, the northwestern pacific tends to be warmers and the southern tier of California tends to be cooler and wetter. These surface temperatures are caused and changed by the help of trade winds. These blows from east to west along the pacific ocean. These phenomena thus influenced the weather along the western and the eastern pacific ocean.Which of the following describes the relationship between elements of an ecosystem? A.

Based on the excerpt above, how could other societies use the information Dr. Snow discovered about Cholera?
Excerpt:
"Dr Snow took a sample of water from the pump, and, on examining it under a microscope, found that it contained "white, flocculent particles." By 7 September, he was convinced that these were the source of infection, and he took his findings to the Board of Guardians of St James's Parish, in whose parish the pump fell. Though they were reluctant to believe him, they agreed to remove the pump handle as an experiment. When they did so, the spread of cholera dramatically stopped . . . At the end of September the outbreak was all but over, with the death toll standing at 616 . . . “Broad Street Pump Outbreak.” UCLA Department of Epidemiology. University of California, Los Angeles, School of Public Health. Web. 22 Jun. 2011."
Question:
Based on the excerpt above, how could other societies use the information Dr. Snow discovered about cholera?
A. They would know that cholera, although dangerous, lasts only a few weeks.
B. They would know that cholera is dangerous and is caused by white, flocculent particles, but they would still have trouble limiting the spread of the disease.
C. Knowing that cholera is spread by air, they could take necessary precautions to ensure that infected people don’t come into contact with healthy people.
D. Knowing that cholera is spread by contaminated water, they could take necessary precautions to make sure they had clean water supplies.
Answer:
The correct answer is D
Explanation:
Other societies could use the information provided by snow to investigate all their water sources to ensure that it is free from Cholera.
Cholera is primarily a waterborne disease.
A person may become infected by eating food or drinking contaminated with the cholera bacterium. Cholera epidemics are usually triggered by faeces of the infected which in turn contaminates food and water.
Answer:
The answer is D ,
Knowing that cholera is spread by contaminated water, they could take necessary precautions to make sure they had clean water supplies.

A type of sheep in Scotland, Soay sheep, used to be quite large. Scotland had a very cold climate, and the sheep that were small in stature did not survive the brutal winter months. In recent years, the climate in Scotland has been warming and so the winters are not quite so brutally cold. Interestingly, there are now many small Soay sheep. This increase in small Soay sheep is due to:_______.
Explanation:
There are now many small soay sheep in Scotland because the winters are not as brutally cold as they use to be. The climate in Scotland has been warming therefore the sheeps of small stature can easily survive now in Scotland, which was not possible in earlier years.

producer of 80 percent of the rainfall in East Asia
Answer:
Summer monsoon.
Explanation:
The summer monsoon is a seasonal wind blowing in South Asia, heading from the sea to the mainland and producing very heavy rainfall.
The summer monsoon is formed when the sun shines perpendicularly above the continent, as the earth heats up and heats the air above, which starts to rise. The air above the Indian Ocean is cooler as the water warms up more slowly than the earth. As a result, moist air begins to flow from the sea to the land in place of the air that has risen upward. When moist clouds meet on the continent, moisture condenses and begins to rain.
