Each variety of crop seed possesses its own set of characteristics. Some varieties of apple seeds, for example, are more resistant to disease than others. Some yield fruit with higher nutritional value. Others are more adaptable to diverse climates. As time goes on, many seed varieties are lost. For example, at the turn of the century, the U.S. grew nearly 8,000 varieties of apples. Today, more than 95 percent of those varieties are no longer extant. This worries many experts, who have stressed that the world's variable conditions require us to store a large variety of seeds and that diversification may be necessary to support a rapidly growing world population.

Group of answer choices

Fifty degrees below zero was to him just precisely fifty degrees below zero. That there should be anything more to it than that was a thought that never entered his head.

He was used to the lack of sun. It had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.

It did not lead him to meditate upon his frailty as a creature of temperature, and upon man's frailty in general, able only to live within certain narrow limits of heat and cold; and from there on it did not lead him to the conjectural field of immortality and man's place in the universe.

The man flung a look back along the way he had come. The Yukon lay a mile wide and hidden under three feet of ice. On top of this ice were as many feet of snow.

He knew that at fifty below spittle crackled on the snow, but this spittle had crackled in the air. Undoubtedly it was colder than fifty below—how much colder he did not know. But the temperature did not matter.

A whole spit of geyser is exploding out of a volcano. These geysers erupt every few or more decades. Huge geysers are very dangerous and can affect many people and pets that are around them. For example, if a cat is around the volcano, they will run fast and will grip to the ground with their long talons. Their talons are as sharp as an eagle's. These long talons can scratch anyone easily, if it is used harmfully by that feline. If they're too sharp and long, cats will need to have a trim. After cutting the feline's talons shorter, it will be easier for humans and owners without being scratched. You will also need to be careful because the plaque is a very bad affection to felines. If you don't brush your feline's teeth or give them food/treats that cleans their teeth, there will be lots of plaque showing what a healthy to sick animal would equally look like. Having plaque is very harmful to have on teeth, it will start to build up and will result to tooth decay.

Why did Li Bai (李白) want to escape from the troubles of the outside world and slip into quietness and calmness when his life during the Tang Dynasty was enjoyable and respectable? What does this tell you about the human nature of slipping away during times of trouble?

Answers

Answer:

The reason why Li Bai wanted to escape the troubles of the outside world and slip into quietness/calmness is that it seemed like he wanted to have some alone time to relax and think to himself while having his enjoyment in his life. In general, we all can be respectable beings based on our actions and we can have a respectable/enjoyable life from the people around us along with our responsibilities. But we all need a break or some space away to think and know what we are going to plan to do next for the future. This tells me that the human nature slipping away from times of trouble is a type of relief because people normally do not want to live under troubles, worries, or fears since those things can make a person's life uneasy and so getting relaxation by slipping away can help make a person's life easier along with the mood being more easygoing and calm. Responsibility is important which is why it is always best to finish our duties and get them done, but most importantly is to not worry yourself with those responsibilities by taking some time to relax and having a break especially if it means escaping for some time alone.

Worm Farms

Adding compost to your garden adds moisture, improves the soil, and helps to prevent pests that could harm plants. Compost supplies nutrients to plants and helps to keep them healthy. A great way to make your own compost is with a worm farm.

What is a worm farm?

A worm farm can be a small container, but not too small, kept either inside or outside. It should be no less than 1 square foot in diameter and at least 4 inches deep. Worms need enough space to more around, and they also like to hide. The worm farm can be made of most anything that you have on hand at home. For example, a container made of wood, plastic, or metal will work.

What do worms eat?

Worms will eat most any food scraps, but the best food is organic waste, like peelings from vegetables or fruit. Instead of throwing them away in the garbage, give them to the worms. However, avoid adding onions, citrus, or dairy. The worms then eat the organic material, turning it into compost or top soil.

✔Number

Explanation:

:)

According to the rules of subject-verb agreement, phrases or clauses between the subject and the verb do not change the agreement.

How do you identify a subject and verb?

Who or what the phrase is speaking about is known as the subject. The term naming a person, place, or thing—a noun or pronoun—will be the subject. The sentence's subject is indicated by the verb. A form of the verb "to be" that expresses a state of being or an activity is the verb.

In English grammar, the subject-verb agreement refers to the correspondence between the subject and the verb in terms of number and person. It means that a singular subject should take a singular verb, and a plural subject should take a plural verb.

When there are phrases or clauses between the subject and the verb, it is important to make sure that the agreement between the subject and the verb remains consistent. According to the rule of subject-verb agreement, phrases or clauses that appear between the subject and the verb do not affect the agreement. The verb should still agree with the subject, regardless of what words or phrases appear between them.
