4/Ecological reserve
Answer: 4/Ecological reserve

Ecological reserves are those places which maintain a natural balance of abiotic and biotic resources. Examples are forests, wild life sanctuaries, national parks, and others. These are rich source of biodiversity as these areas are restricted to be affected by the human population. Also the large number and diversity of vegetation is capable of absorbing carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide which is a chief pollutant gas released from automobiles, household chimneys, and industrial gaseous discharge.

The total amount of sunlight that approaches Earth is about _______ in September as in March
half as much
twice as much
the same
Answer:
C). The same
Explanation:
As per the question, the aggregate sunlight received during the months of September and March is almost the same as both of these months witness an equinox marking the beginning of spring(in March) and the fall(in September). March 20 or 21 and September 22 or 23 are the two days when there is an intersection of the apparent path of the sun and the sun's center is right above the celestial equator. On these days, an equal amount of sunlight is received throughout the Earth(excluding the extreme poles) i.e. 12 hours of sunlight and darkness for 12 hours. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
Why is the land breeze experienced at night?
need an explanation related to the following diagram
Land breezes usually occur at night because during the day the sun will heat land surfaces, but only to a depth of a few inches. ... The movement of the wind is a result of differences in air pressure over the land and the ocean. Warm air is less dense and rises, therefore cool air is more dense and sinks. At night, the roles reverse. The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. ... This causes a small temperature gradient between the ocean surface and the nearby land at night and the wind will blow from the land to the ocean creating the land breeze.
When a plane lands at the local airport, it touches ground and creates an angle between the ground and the belly of the plane. What is a good estimate of the angle measurement?
Answer:
Approximately 3 degrees
Explanation:
As well as taking off, the landing of the plane must be monitored very well, allowing the entire trip to be made safely and efficiently. At landing, it is important for the pilot to estimate which is the best descent profile and what is the best angle to be established between the ground and the belly of the plane. It is preferable that this angle is approximately 3 degrees, which promotes a safe landing, but this value can have small variations.
