1. Name three human activities that can promote soil erosion. Describe several farming techniques (such as terracing and no-till farming) that can help reduce the risk of erosion.
2. Explain how pesticide resistance occurs
3. How is a transgenic organism created? How is genetic engineering different from traditional agricultural breeding? How is it similar?
4. Name several major causes of deforestation. Where is deforestation most severe today? (also answer- are forest fires always a negative thing?),
5. Compare and contrast maximum sustainable yield, ecosystem-based management, and adaptive management. How may pursuing maximum sustainable yield sometimes affect populations and communities? (also answer-How does forest fragmentation affect animals?)
