    • INTEGRAL AGROFORESTRY

    • CYCLICAL AGROFORESTRY

    • BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY

    Correct Answer
    A. CYCLICAL AGROFORESTRY
    Explanation
    Cyclical agroforestry refers to a system of agriculture where there is a sequential relationship between food crops and forest fallow. This means that after the food crops are harvested, the land is left fallow and allowed to regenerate through natural processes before being used for cultivation again. This practice helps to maintain soil fertility, prevent erosion, and promote biodiversity by allowing the land to rest and recover between crop cycles. Therefore, cyclical agroforestry is the most suitable answer that aligns with the given explanation.

    Noise reduction is one of the benefits of Social Forestry, how can trees reduce noise pollution?

    • Trees Reflect and Absorb Sound Energy Reducing Noise Pollution

    • Trees Reflect and Release Sound Energy Reducing Noise Pollution

    • Trees use noise when growing

    • Trees dissolves noise

    Correct Answer
    A. Trees Reflect and Absorb Sound Energy Reducing Noise Pollution
    Explanation
    Trees have the ability to reflect and absorb sound energy, which helps in reducing noise pollution. When sound waves hit the leaves and branches of trees, they are reflected and dispersed in different directions, reducing the intensity of the noise. Additionally, the foliage of trees acts as a barrier that absorbs sound waves, preventing them from traveling further and reducing the overall noise level. Therefore, the presence of trees in an area can effectively contribute to noise reduction.

    How does the tree act as a carbon sink?

    • Trees use carbon dioxide when growing

    • Trees emit Carbon when growing

    • Trees transpires Carbon during day times

    • Trees uses Carbon and release Nitrogen

    Correct Answer
    A. Trees use carbon dioxide when growing
    Explanation
    Trees act as a carbon sink because they use carbon dioxide when they are growing. During the process of photosynthesis, trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and convert it into carbohydrates, which are stored in their trunks, branches, and leaves. This process helps to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, thus mitigating the effects of climate change. By storing carbon, trees play a crucial role in regulating the Earth's carbon cycle and are an important tool in combating global warming.

    • Deforestaion

    • Degradation

    • Reforestation

    • Restoration

    Correct Answer
    A. Degradation
    Explanation
    Degradation refers to the decline in the productivity or ability of land to support natural ecosystems or types of agriculture. This can occur due to various reasons such as deforestation, overuse of resources, pollution, or climate change. It leads to a loss of biodiversity, soil erosion, and reduced agricultural yields. Reforestation and restoration, on the other hand, aim to reverse the degradation by planting trees or restoring the natural ecosystem. Therefore, degradation is the correct answer as it encompasses the overall decline in the land's productivity and ability to support ecosystems.
