The natural selection among peppered moths of Manchester, England can be mainly attributed to to the abruptly increasing levels of Air Pollution in England as a result of thriving Industrial Revolution In the U.K.

Soot from power producing factories, etc resulted in complete eradication of lichens in the flora of the surrounding region.

The frequency of the newly evolved peppered moth increased as the dark colour was beneficial in a polluted environment like in Manchester.

vovangra [49]

Answer:

A. Average plant height increases with an increase in the concentration of sodium phosphate until the plants reach a maximum possible height.

Explanation:

The graph in the attachment section portrays the average height of plants (cm) on the y-axis plotted against the concentration of sodium phoshate (mg/L) on the x-axis. Based on the observation of the result in the graph, an increase in the concentration of phosphate caused an increase in the average plant height (as depicted by the upward-sloping line).

However, the plant's average height didn't go beyond 35cm despite an increase in concentration of phosphate. This is because the plants has reached a maximum possible height i.e. a height climax. Hence, they cannot grow taller than 35cm no matter the amount of external nutrients (sodium phosphate) supplied.

Therefore, the noticeable trend that can be used to make a conclusion is that average plant height increases with an increase in the concentration of sodium phosphate until the plants reach a maximum possible height.

What functions do proteins perform in the cell membrane?
kumpel [21]

Answer:

A) they help transport some substances through the membrane.

Explanation:

The membrane proteins that span the bilayer of phospholipids help in the transport of polar, large and charged substances across the membrane. The nonpolar core of the membrane does not allow these charged and polar substances to pass through. Proteins serving as channels form pores to allow movement of the specific substances.  

On the other hand, carrier transport proteins of the membrane bind to the substances present at one side of the membrane and deliver them to the opposite side.
