Study Questions: 1.) Why is sub-soiling needed in soils with hard pans? Sub-soiling is essential especially to hard pan layer because it will help the roots penetrate deep and be able to explore and obtain water and nutrients from larger volume of soil. Hard span obstructs root’s downward proliferation and restricts root growth of crops (of crops that have vertical root growth). With sub-soiling‚ the needed soil depth‚ at least 80cm will be met . With sub-soiling‚ we can break hard pan without

Megan Jones Composition and Research Annotated Bibliography November 26‚ 2013 Introduction Fifty percent of all species live in rain forests. Already eighty percent of the world’s natural forests have been destroyed. In the amazon rain forest alone is where twenty percent of our oxygen is created. These are just some of the many reasons why deforestation has become such a large problem today. Almost fifty thousand species become extinct every year due to deforestation. Such extreme cutting has

And each time you avoid using your car‚ you are contributing to reducing air pollution. You are saving fuel‚ saving money and getting a good workout too. Now isn’t that beneficial for both you and the environment? Maintain your vehicles in good condition. It may not be possible to go cycling or walking everywhere. To some distances‚ there’s no other option but your car. But

This indicates families tend to purchase a diet high in calories but low in nutrients‚ which may contribute to weight gain. This might be due to unemployment because they have the inability to afford the basics to help maintain a healthy diet; as a consequence‚ children are eating a highly processed diet. In addition‚ there is a 40%

Cyanobacteria including those that form stromatolites There have been many technological advances that have lead to a greater understanding to the world that we live in‚ especially over the past 50-75 years. Developments in technology such as the light microscope and the transmission electron microscope particularly have made research in the field of bacteria and in this case Cyanobacteria much easier‚ removing barriers and creating a situation where there are barley any limits.
