Answer: Hey hope the answer help you friend.

Explanation:

Q1. There are five types of land use: residential, agricultural, recreation, transportation, and commercial.

Q2. The use of land is determined both by physical factors such as topography, climate, soil types as well as human factors such as population density, technological capability and culture and traditions etc.

Q3. Proponents argue that land use planning protects farmland, forests, water quality, open space, and wildlife habitat and, at the same time, increases property value and human health.

Q4.  Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, water, and biological organisms. Soil is a mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that together support life.

Q5. Factors: parent material, climate, topography, organisms, and time.

Q6.  Rainfall, surface runoff, floods, wind erosion, tillage, and mass movements result in the loss of fertile top spoil thereby declining soil quality.

Q7. Soil conservation is the prevention of loss of the top most layer of the soil from erosion or prevention of reduced fertility caused by over usage, acidification, nasalization or other chemical soil contamination.

Q8. The distribution of water on the Earth's surface is extremely uneven. Only 3% of water on the surface is fresh; the remaining 97% resides in the ocean.

Q9.     Check your toilet for leaks

   Stop using your toilet as an ashtray or wastebasket

   Put a plastic bottle in your toilet tank

   Take shorter showers

   Install water-saving shower heads or flow restriction

   Take baths

   Turn off the water while brushing your teeth

   Turn off the water while shaving.

Q10. First, vegetation regulates the flow of numerous biogeochemical cycles, most critically those of water, carbon, and nitrogen; it is also of great importance in local and global energy balances.

Q11. Forest conservation as the name suggests is the preservation and the protection of forests. It also involves the reversal of deforestation and environmental pollution. The preservation of all natural resources is absolutely essential for the balance of our ecosystem.

Q12. Wildlife traditionally refers to undomesticated animal species, but has come to include all organisms that grow or live wild in an area without being introduced by humans. Wildlife can be found in all ecosystems. Some animals, however, have adapted to suburban environments.
