SCIENCE - WRITTEN WORK 4 Matching Type. Match column A with the correct answer in column B. Write only the letter of correct answer on a separate sheet of paper. COLUMN A 1. This is the cultivation of a single crop in large areas. Vast tracts of land are converted to rice farms, sugar farms, and coconut farms. 2. This is used by farmers to kill insect pests and weeds. 3. The continuous and uncontrolled use of this product may increase soil acidity, thus destroying soil structure. 4. This can include clearing the land for agriculture or grazing, or using the timber for fuel, construction, or manufacturing. 5. Farmers use plastic sheets as mulch to cover 50-70% of the soil and allow them to use drip irrigation systems to have better control over soil nutrients and moisture. 6. A huge amount of agricultural territory is used primarily as pasture for cattle and other livestock. 7. Antimicrobial resistant bacteria can move from farms to humans through food and airborne dust. _8. It is a wide-reaching result of conventional agricultural practices affecting both surface and groundwater sources, in agricultural communities and those located downstream. 9. It Influences social and environmental determinants of health, including and water quality and food security. 10. The gradual increase in the concentration of phosphorus, nitrogen, and other plant nutrients in an aging aquatic ecosystem such as a lake. COLUMN B A. water pollution B. monoculture C. antibiotics D. insecticide E. deforestation F. chemical fertilizer G. climate change H. eutrophication 1. plasticulture J. grazing True or False. Write True on your paper if the statement is correct and False if otherwise. 11. Farmers can decrease the chances of plant and vegetable diseases through crop diversification on a surface of land and through crop rotation techniques. 12. Sustainable farming involves the use of alternative energy sources such as hydropower, solar power or wind farms which are eco-friendly. 13. Hydroponics is a farming method which involves growing shrubs and trees among other plants and vegetables. 14. Permaculture is a food production system which mimics how vegetables and plants grow in natural ecosystems. 15. Wastes produced by agriculture, households, industry, mining, and other human activities can end up in groundwater, streams, rivers, and oceans.
