  • A couple of biology questions please answer about plants 10 points?

    A farmer decides he wants to grow certified organic corn and sets out to meet all USDA standards to do so. His crop grows well for the first three years; however, he notices during the fourth and fifth years that his plants are getting smaller and producing much less corn. He has not altered his farming practices and begins to wonder what is happening. He remembers someone mentioning planting peanuts every third year in place of their corn crop, which leads to much healthier corn. Why would a farmer want to change to a different crop, especially something like peanuts?

    Answer

    It will not change anything; the farmer just liked peanuts.

    Planting a legume like peanuts increases water retention in the soil, allowing the following year's corn crop to thrive.

    Crop rotation with a legume like peanuts will increase nitrogen in the soil.

    Planting a legume like peanuts increases the available carbon in the soil.

    Changing from corn to peanuts, a legume, allows the soil to "rest" for a year.

    okay so I'm super depressed and I've been for a while. I feel as if nothing in life matters to me nor makes me happy and this has effected my college p.s this is my first semester

    I as well fear death so much that it freaks me out and sometimes I wake with fear and trouble breathing; I also tend to have nightmares, usually revolving around me being in a casket at my funeral.

    I also lack basic social skills and am highly emotional, consequently I have never been in a relationship and to be honest I'm not even that bad looking I'm not super hot but am not ugly and am of average body shape, maybe a little skinny but not too much but I can be extremely self conscious. I as well don't like being around ppl too much because of this and when I see people that know me from highschool I try to do whatever I can to do avoid, due to the fact as years have progressed so has my depression and all other ailments

    also i don't like my family and they seem very hypocritical to me and they are of no help to meso pls any help will be highly appreciated I need to get better and do better in school, which as of right seems to be of no importance to me and instead just a huge added stressor

    I just highly dislike my life right now and I would like to apologize for the lengthi've been depressed for a couple of years now and I dont really have much friends and going out and trying to be happy just makes me feel worse in the end and thanks for your thoughts
