Lake mojave is an ancient lake that has dried up and no longer exists in the mojave desert in california. which environmental conditions may have occurred to cause the disappearance of the lake and the organisms that live in it? check all that apply. decrease in rainfall in the mojave desert decrease in temperature in the mojave desert decrease in runoff that flows into mojave lake increase in blocked streams that flow into mojave lake increase in pollution that was deposited into mojave lake increase in the nonnative plant population in mojave lake

The correct answers are:

- Decrease in rainfall in the Mojave desert;

The decrease in rainfall can be devastating to a lake's waters and biodiversity. The decrease in rain usually causes bigger loss of water through evaporation than water coming in the lake, so over time it will dry out, or just small pieces of it will remain.

- Decrease in runoff that flows into Mojave Lake;

If the amount of water that comes into the lake decreases, it can be fatal to it, and in a very short period of time, since the lake will be losing more water than it gets in.

- Increase in blocked streams that flow into Mojave Lake;

Naturally, streams can be blocked and redirected, so if this happens, we have the same situation from before, where the water income is smaller than the water loss of the lake.

the abdomen (less formally called the belly, stomach, tummy or midriff) constitutes the part of the body between the thorax (chest) and pelvis, in humans and in other vertebrates. the region occupied by the abdomen is termed the abdominal cavity. the stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. the stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion. the pyloric sphincter is a muscular valve that opens to allow food to pass from the stomach to the small intestine.
