7. CASE STUDY For Biosphere 2 to meet its goal, why was it necessary for it to replicate a variety of climates?

For Biosphere 2 to meet its goal, it was necessary to replicate a variety of climates. The original goal was to provide a successful model for human space colonies, and with this goal in mind, scientists and engineers built prototypes of several environments that can replicate the real-life climates (in order to see how the complex processes work). This provides a viable ecological system in outer space. In the model, there are different climates used to see how different factors of the Earth affect each other.

Explanation:

affects the water bodies: excessive use of fertilizers causes eutrophication. the fertilizers which are used on plants affect the quality of land on which it is used, further causing erosion of soil. the fertilizers used on plants contain harmful chemical fumes which affect the environment.

the answer is b.) hydrogen bonds between bases.
