There exist some insectivorous plants like the Pitcher plant, Venus flytrap plant, etc that are considered to be partially heterotrophic.

<h3>What are insectivorous plants? </h3>

The insectivorous plant which is sometimes also referred to as a carnivorous plant is a plant that has a special adaptation for the capturing and digesting of insects.

They can also digest some other animals by the means of unique structures like ingenious pitfalls and traps. Carnivorous nature in plants is an independent evolution and is present about six times throughout the several families and orders of plants.

There are more than 600 known species of carnivorous plants and they make for a very diverse group. In some cases, they have some more characteristics than their carnivorous nature.

Therefore, the Pitcher plant, Venus flytrap, etc are considered to be partially heterotrophic plants.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

D) sympatric speciation and habitat isolation

Explanation:

Sympatric isolation is a form of evolutionary process whereby different species from an ancestral origin evolve within the same geographical environment as a result of reproductive isolation.

Habitat isolation is a form of reproductive isolation which occurs when two populations of a species inhabiting overlapping habitats become unable to interbreed with each other.  

Reproductive isolation (habitat isolation) that occurs in the fleas is as a result of the new species becoming separate from it's ancestral species which feed only on pronghorn antelopes, although both species can still be found in the same geographical location (rangeland). The new species now have preference for cattle blood, and so are now found on cattle.

In the situation of the two new species of flea that would evolve, it can be said to an example of sympatric speciation and habitat isolation, since the host mammal is assumed to be their habitat and both the cattle and pronghorns often associate with one another in the same open rangeland.

aksik [14]

Answer:

The axial filament is located between the cell membrane and the outer membrane.

Explanation:

Axial filaments are structures used for motility too. They wraped around the cell body and are found in spyrochetes. The origin of the flagella is in the periplasmic space, the space between the inner membrane and the outer membrane they differ because other flagellum are near the cell surface, attached to the basal body enclosed in the cell envelope.

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

C. Only 1, 3 and 4

Explanation:

Deforestation is the process of cutting down trees by man, which eventually lead to the the sparseness of trees in otherwise forested areas. The reasons for cutting  trees by man may include: habitation by man, clearing the land for agriculture or grazing, or using the timber for fuel, construction or manufacturing as well as mining of minerals.

Deforestation leads to many adverse effects on both man and his environment. These adverse effects include:

Loss of biodiversity in the forests which may lead to extinction of species.; when forest areas are cleared, plants and animals who live in these forests lose their homes and some may eventually die off due to inability to survive in other habitats

Increase in temperature of the earth: Trees serves to cool the earth by removing some gases which cause heating of the earth from the earth. Such gases include carbon dioxide. When these tree are removed, these gases accumulate in the atmosphere leading to increase in earth's temperature.

Also, since tree absorb some gases while releasing others into the atmosphere, when these trees are cut, there would be an imbalance of these atmospheric gases.
