Answers
Answer:
1. The tropical rainforest soils. They contain very little or- ganic matter partly because there is very little vegeta- tion and partly because any organic matter is quickly broken down by the hot sun. The desert soils lack the dark surface organic horizon of most other world soils.
2. When the water behind a dam reaches the capacity of the dam, water must be released the prevent damage to the dam. Sometimes extremely large amounts of water needs to be released during large rain events. These large releases of water can sometimes cause flooding downstream.
3. Advantages: Vertical gardens help to reduce the carbon footprint of a building by filtering pollutants and carbon dioxide out of the air, which also benefits those living nearby as the quality of the air is proved.
Disadvantages:The disadvantage of vertical gardening is that it can hold moisture against the affected walls, and can promote rot if the planters are not installed properly.
