Answer:
Explanation:
1. Describe two effects of insecticide use on the forest ecosystem other than the intended reduction of moths to protect the trees.
1. Insecticides when sprayed on a certain areas or spots can be blown by the wind to other areas or flow with rain water into nearby streams or local water bodies or seep through the soil into ground water. This is called indirect application or secondary poisoning,
2. Insecticides can affect the food chain because they reduce the biomass of primary consumers and there is is less food available to secondary consumers which eat poisoned plants or prey those who have been exposed to pesticides.
Insecticides can travel great distances through the environment and they can also flow with rain water into streams so fish can be directly or indirectly impacted by pesticides. The phenomenon of nutrient enrichment of aquatic bodies is known as eutrophication, which deteriorate the water quality leading to death of fish. Some long-term exposures cause abnormalities or mutations in developing fish larvae, while acute exposure can cause immediate fish die-offs. The liver, kidney, brain and gills of exposed fish are extremely vulnerable to chemical exposure.
Answer:
stores extra food
is responsible for photosynthesis
supports the plant
makes up the majority of a plant
Explanation:
Ground tissues are one of the three types of plant tissues (others being dermal and vascular). They are composed of cells as follows: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. These three cells that make up the ground tissues perform different functions in the plant cell.
- Parenchyma functions in photosynthesis and storage of extra food (carbohydrates) in the cell.
- Collenchyma functions in the support of young regions of the plant
- Sclerenchyma, which has the thickest cell wall, functions mainly in the strengthening/support of the plant cell.
Also, among the three tissue types in a plant, ground tissues make up majority of the plant cell.
Answer:
cell wall

if its not one of the options sorry!
