Earthworms have a beneficial effect on the physical and chemical properties of soil. Earthworms change the structure of the soil and improve water drainage. As earthworms dig through compacted soil, they ingest the soil and grind it up. They move organic matter from the surface and mix it deeper into the soil. In the forest, this organic matter is called duff, mostly litter from fallen leaves and decaying branches.
Earthworms benefit plants in every conceivable way. Their burrowing creates channels through which plant roots may more easily penetrate the soil. Earthworms aid in the formation of humus, the organic matter in soil. A high level of humus is associated with soil fertility, so worms are beneficial to forests, agriculture, and gardens. Worm excretions are a valuable source of nitrogen, which assists in plant growth. The bodies of earthworms are rich in proteins, minerals, and vitamins, and when worms die these nutrients are released into the soil.
Earthworms are an important link in the food web because they are a food source for numerous species of animals. They are preyed upon by many species of birds, snakes, and mammals, as well as invertebrates such as beetles and snails. Earthworms are also used as bait in sports fishing and as animal feed in poultry farming. With the help of gardeners and sports fishermen, earthworm populations continue to spread, sometimes at the speed of ten meters a year. Wherever they go, earthworms are a positive force in the ecosystem.
The article states that online degree programs are not as effective as conventional campus degrees and provides three reasons for support. however, the professor cast doubts on those ideas and explains that they have their own advantages and refutes each of the author's reasons.
First of all, the reading assumes that online programs do not offer one-to-one time interaction of the students with the professors. The professor, however, refutes this point by saying that it is up to the students whether they want to interact or not. he also states that there are various modes of interaction with professors in online programs such as chat, email and telephonic calls.
Second, the article posits that online degrees are not as challenging or as high quality as the on-campus programs. The professor refutes this claim by saying that the quality of the online courses is up to the mark and provides an example of his students who found out that online courses are not as easy as they had expected. Moreover, online courses require self-discipline as students have to manage technology along with the content of the study.
Finally, the article claims that top schools do not offer online courses. Nevertheless, the professor in the lecture opposes this point and states that even top schools provide online courses. he says that every Ivy League colleges except Princeton University offer online courses to the students for the completion of their degree by providing a one-term residency requirement.
