Cutting "steps" or terraces into the sides of hills is one way to
A. increase arable land for farming
B. decrease the risks of flooding
C. store water during times of drought
D decrease agricultural yields
Answer:
Cutting ''steps'' or terraces into the sides of hills is one way to increase arable land for farming.
Explanation:
In order for farming to take place, there need to be certain conditions that will enable it. One of the most important conditions is arable land. This type of land is limited though, and in multiple places what nature has provided in this type of land is not enough to satisfy the demand of humans.
In order to increase the arable land, the humans became inovative, and they thought of cutting up ''steps'' or terraces into the sides of steep hills and mountains. In this way, they were able to create flat land on the sides of the hills and mountains and make it suitable for farming. This has increased significantly the amount of arable land and production of food, and some of the best examples are some of the countries that have very high population but limited arable land naturally, like Japan, China, Vietnam, and Indonesia.

Answer:
2
Explanation:
The half-life of a radioactive material is the time taken for a nuclide to decay to half its original composition.
Given:
Half-life = 10yrs
Number of atoms in parent = 100atoms
Unknown:
Number of half-lives what will pass for 25 atoms to remain:
Start First half life Second half life
Number of years 0 10 20
Number of atoms 100 50 25
The number of half-lives that will pass is 2

The more dense the rocks get
Explanation:
The deeper we go towards the center of the planet we will find more and more dense rocks. This is because of the force of gravity of the planet. That theory was devised by Sir Isaac Newton and it still holds true to this day. Every layer has more density than the previous layer all the way to the core.

The continent in the map figure is South America
It contains countries such as Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Suriname etc. The North eastern region is the dominated by the country of Brazil. The largest rainforest in the world is located in the country.why is it likely that scientist will produce new theories to explain the movement of plates in the future?
Answer:
Because with any theory it can be changed.
Explanation:
If new evidence is found to disclaim a theory then another theory will be made to replace the old theory. No theory can every be a law since it is a theory. Because theories can always be changed due to new evidence.
(so basically if they find new evidence about the movements of planets then that will make a new Theory)
Example: one of the early theories about how an atom looked like was By J.J Thompson. He said that an atom looked like a plum pudding. The electrons were the berries. People believed that for a long period of time since it was backed by science. Yet that was later disclaimed by new evidence which made a new theory.
