Reply:What did you do, take a sick day to finish your homework? It took me 50 yrs. to learn some of these answers. I have mixxed feelings about doing this but in my day I would do my homework at the kitchen table so I could ask Mom while she cooked supper (geese I just made myself feel really OLD). At least you had to type all these questions, a good learning technique in itself. Now that you've heard all my grousing, here goes -- B, T, (I could argue this one either way, true it uses less water but it promotes fungal diseases) F, (? basin is for young trees, berms are used for terracing hillside plantings), T, F, A, D,(E%26amp;F a single grove tree will use more water than a sole tree, on a hot day the grove tree will benifit from the cool shaded micro climate and "transpiration" will be greater than the sole tree whos stomas close to conserve water but your teacher would probably disagree),G, J and L.
