B)
taking out earthworms to preserve plant health
C)
building a compost pile
D)
using growth lamps
E)
allowing dogs to play in the soil area

Answer 1

Answer: A) using fertilizers to increase plant growth

Step-by-step explanation:

Earthworms help the soil in A LOT of ways.

piling up compost in one spot won't do much.

Growth lamps aren't as effective as the sun.

dogs paws can dig into the ground and erode the soil.

Answer 2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking out earthworms to preserve plant health (option B) would be the best activity that promotes improving soil health. This is because the activity is testing if taking out earthworms would help preserve plant health, which is a positive thing towards plant health. This, in a way, would improve soil health.

• Option A is related to plant growth, not improving soil health.
• Option C is making a compost pile for soil. While this is related to soil, this does not improve soil health or promote improving soil health.
• Option D is using growth lamps (assuming for plants). This is related to plants (assuming), not soil health.
• Option E is self explanatory. Allowing dogs to play in the soil area harms soil health, not improve soil health.

This means the correct answer is B. Hope that makes sense.
