Q:

Soil erosion can be prevented by

A) Removal of vegetation B) Overgrazing
C) Afforestation D) Increasing bird population
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Afforestation

Explanation:

The four most common soil erosion prevention methods are vegetation, geotextiles, mulch, and retaining walls.

By planting grass in areas of concentrated water flow, farmers can prevent much of the soil erosion that results from runoff, as the grass stabilizes the soil while still providing an outlet for drainage.

Preventing soil erosion is critical in protecting your property and exposed soil, whether from wind, weather, running water, and even the after-effects of the forest fire.

A) 1,51,200 ways. B) 5,04,020 ways
C) 72,000 ways D) None of the above

Explanation:

In circumcstances word there are 3C's, 2S's, I, U,R, T, A, N, E

Total = 13 letters

But last letter must be N

Hence, available places = 12

In that odd places = 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11

Owvels = 4

This can be done in 6P4 ways 

Remaining 7 letters can be arranged in 7!/3! x 2! ways

 

Hence, total number of ways = 6P4 x 7!/3! x 2! = 360 x 5040/12 = 1,51,200 ways.
