This is a type of land use conversion wherein the soil cover and land forms are not substantially altered and present a variety of options for future re-use (croplands-pasture-croplands, forest-logged over area-forest, residential-commercial-residential) .
- A.
Reversible conversion
- B.
Irreversible conversion
- C.

- D.
None of the choices
Correct Answer
A. Reversible conversionExplanation
The correct answer is reversible conversion. This is because reversible conversion refers to a type of land use conversion where the soil cover and land forms are not substantially altered, allowing for a variety of options for future re-use. This means that the land can be converted back and forth between different uses, such as croplands to pasture and then back to croplands, or forest to a logged-over area and then back to forest. This flexibility in land use makes it reversible.Rate this question:

B. Irreversible conversionExplanation
Irreversible conversion refers to a type of land use conversion where the original character of the land is changed to such a degree that it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to reverse it back to its former use or condition. This could occur when converting a forest or agricultural land into urban uses, such as building infrastructure or residential areas. Once the land has been transformed, it is challenging to restore it to its previous state, making the conversion irreversible.Rate this question:
