6th:-) List five methods of soil conservation. Soil erosion and soil damage can be prevented by no-till farming, contour plowing, terracing, using cover crops, and practicing crop rotation. In class, we described how each of these helped prevent the loss of soil. We then heard more of your lab write-ups,(these are amazing) and got started on Section 4. If you didn’t finish this in class, it is due for homework. Another web site with great graphics:>

7th:-) When working with microscopes, what does resolution refer to? Resolution refers to how sharp the image is when looking at it under the microscope.
