A wooded area experienced an extreme drought after years of very little rainfall. What was the most likely effect of the drought on this ecosystem?

A. Populations of soil organisms increased as the amount of water in the soil decreased.
B. Populations of herbivores increased due to the increased vegetation available for them to eat.
C. Populations of plants that require very little water decreased more than those that need a lot of water.
D. Populations of both trees and shrubs decreased due to the increased competition for water.

Answers

Answer 1
I think it’s D because those things both produce water, so when trying to compete for water is ruining everything.
Answer 2

Answer:

D. Populations of both trees and shrubs decreased due to the increased competition for water.

Explanation:

if both of the trees are competing for water both of them will decrease bc they will both take water from each other causing both of the trees to die.

You decide to create a composting bin for your house. While checking on it one day, you notice that the compost bin has started to smell like rotting eggs. You know that a successful compost bin should not smell like this. You take a sample of the pile and check for the presence of microorganisms under the microscope. You see that there are indeed microorganisms. Given this information, what should you do to resolve the smell of your compost?(1 point)

Creating a tent for the pile to shield it from the sun and heat will help resolve the smell.

Turning the pile to aerate the compost and expose it to oxygen will help resolve the smell.

Adding more “brown” materials to the pile to increase the amount of carbon will help resolve the smell.

Adding more “green” materials to the pile to increase the amount of nitrogen will help resolve the smell.

Chickens that carry both the alleles for rose comb (R) and pea comb (P) have walnut combs, whereas chickens that lack both of these alleles (that is, rr pp) have single combs. From the information about interactions between these two genes, determine the phenotypes and proportions expected from the following crosses:

a. RR Pp × rr Pp;
b. rr PP × Rr Pp;
c. Rr Pp × Rr pp;

A test can be defined as an examination or quiz given to a student (pupil) during an academic calendar in order to measure or determine his or her intelligence. It is usually graded based on a set of defined grades or scores.

The key characteristics of a well-designed test includes the following;

I. Standardization: it is important that test is set based on certain criteria and acceptable rules within the education community and curriculum.

II. Reliability: the questions contained in a test should be credible and backed by correct answers.

III. Validity: the test questions should be genuine and authentic across board.

However, brevity simply means succinctness or conciseness i.e the test should be brief and very short in duration.

Based on the context in paragraph 4, fossil refers to ____________.

a. how igneous rocks were formed over time
b. a trace or print, or the remains of a plant or animal of a past age preserved in Earth or rock
c. layers of sediment building up over time and pressing down, forming rock


4. Sedimentary rock is the second category. These rocks cover most of Earth’s land. Sedimentary rocks are made of pieces of other rocks and shells. Erosion causes rocks to slowly wear away. Erosion can be caused by rain, wind, freezing, and plant roots. Sometimes small pieces of rock are made because of erosion. The small pieces of rock are called sediment. Rivers take sediment to oceans and lakes. The river drops the sediments as it slows down. The sediments settle to the bottom in layers. More and more layers of sediment are dropped over millions of years. The weight from the top layers turns the bottom layers of sediments into rock. This makes some sedimentary rocks look layered. Fossils are often found in sedimentary rocks.

b. a trace or print, or the remains of a plant or animal of a past age preserved in Earth or rock

The best way to practice sustainable use of rangelands is to

Answers

Answer: 1. Rotating the rangelands that are being used.

2. Reducing overgrazing of rangelands.

Explanation:

Rangelands are the sites which are occupied and dominated by vegetation cover mostly the shrubs and herbs. It can be occupied by grasses. Overgrazing by the cattle cause a huge damage to the field of rangeland so  it can cause soil erosion and can convert the rangeland on barren land. The regrowth rate is slower than that of the consumption rate of the cattle. So, reduction in overgrazing is advisable to maintain the sustainability of the land. Rotation of the rangelands being used if the cattle are taken to the different grassland for grazing on alternate days then the rangelands can be maintained sustainably.

Answers

Answer:

1: Parasitism

2: mutualism

3: parasitism

4: mutualism

Explanation: Hope this helps and have a great day!!

The sentences describe different types of symbiotic relationships between organisms are: Parasitism, Mutualism, Commensalism

1. Parasitism: Sea lampreys hatch eggs on fish and feed on the fish.

In parasitism, one organism benefits (the sea lampreys) at the expense of the other (the fish) by feeding on its tissues.

2. Mutualism: Clownfish help sea anemones catch prey while using the sea anemones for protection.

This sentence describes mutualism, where both clownfish and sea anemones benefit from the relationship. Clownfish protect sea anemones from predators, while they, in turn, provide a safe haven for the clownfish.

3. Parasitism: Mosquitoes suck blood from the bodies of organisms.

Mosquitoes exemplify parasitism as they feed on the blood of other organisms, taking nutrients without providing any benefit in return.

4. Mutualism: Ants provide protection to acacia trees while receiving nutrients from the trees.

This sentence represents mutualism, where ants defend acacia trees from herbivores, and in return, they receive nutrients and shelter from the trees.

5. Commensalism: Ants reserved.

The term "reserved" here seems to be incomplete, but assuming it refers to ants residing in a certain place, it would represent commensalism. Commensalism describes a relationship where one organism benefits, and the other is neither helped nor harmed significantly.

In summary, the sentences describe mutualism, parasitism, and possibly commensalism, showcasing the diverse interactions that can occur in ecological communities.

It would be C because oxygen isn’t used by plants and plants only So that would cross out there, B is wrong because humans can’t do photosynthesis. Plants are the only organism that can carry out Cellular respiration, so that takes out D so the only logical answer to say it is used by organisms to carry out cellular respiration

so you could either say yes you should classify them as different species because they were ultimately adapt differently or you can say no because even though there is a highway they can still cross is just much harder
