What are at least three ways to prevent soil erosion?

One way to prevent soil is by gardening. You have to grow plants are indigenous to your area. Another thing to do is plant trees and shrubs which can provide shelter for soil. The roots will help to prevent excess water from washing it away. The second thing is to keep soil moist but you cant drown it. But over-watering can not only wash away soil, but cause it to degrade. The third thing you can do is plant vegetation that will assist in the protection of the soil, like rye or clover. They will protect by thickly covering the ground and they will restrict weed growth and reduce runoff.

describe 3 abiotic factors that could affect biotic potential (population growth) and how they would affect it

One factor is diseases that are spread by people. For example a sexuallt transmitted disease can prevent reproduction because organisms with these diseases may not be able to reproduce at a healthy rate and death may come from these matters. Another form of this is predation. Predators have to get their share of food and by doing this, they kill other animals and ruin habitats in the process. Obviously this can happen with humans as it happens to animals. The last reason can be natural destruction. Human nature is very random which means you never see it coming. You never know when a hurricane or an earthquake might hit and destroy many habitats. Which can cause many species to instinct.

describe why sampling is important to the study of populations

Studying is very important because we want to know what the population of everything is. We need it because for humans its important to know how many people live in a country because of the benefits the people need to have. They also need to know how many representatives are needed for each state. In order to help many people the U.S. needs to know how many people there are because some people aren't able to get the opportunity they need because they weren't counted as part of a population.

Which biome would you most like to visit? Why?

The place i would like to visit would be the savanna tropical grasslands because they are in areas of low rainfall with long dry periods. It is also scattered with clumps of trees like acacia and wide expanses of grasslands. It is fire adapted and that is also a key to why i like it. For me it seems like a nice relaxing place to spend time at and i enjoy being in nature. O f course there are many dangerous animals out there. So you have to be careful when you go visit one of these places but its very relaxing and this is why i would like to visit it one day.

Should re-wilding species be keystone species? How could re-wilding be made successful?

I think it should be the keystone species because they seem to be the important ones. They seem to have more of a better chance of making it through life and are important because many animals are in the point of getting extinct which is a big problem. I believe it is important to save everyone but yet only the strong will make it. This method is called "survival of the fittest" because of course people and animals are fighting to stay alive.

What surprised you most about the waste we create over a lifetime?

I am surprised on how much waste we create over a lifetime. I didn't think it would be a lot but it all adds up so its very difficult to get rid of. Many people don't understand how important this is because our planet is being effected by this. It's a mess in the land fields and people aren't sure how to get rid of it. It is disgusting to know that it is just sitting there. Many people aren't doing anything about this and we should do something about it.
