Biology

Answer: The correct answer is Fire.

Any physical or biological factor whose impact is not dependent on the number of organisms living in that area ( population density) is referred to as the density-independent factor.

Fire is a density-independent factor because it will cause harm to all members of the population once the area starts burning.  

On the contrary, density dependent factors are those whose impact on the growth of population varies with the density of population.  

Water, food, and space are density-dependent factors. A specific number of organisms can occupy a particular space.  

Availability of food and water can impact the population of a particular area. This is because organisms may start dying in the scarcity of food and water. So they are also density-dependent factors.

Thus, fire is the correct answer to the density independent factor.

How does a fungus get energy
nydimaria [60]
All fungi are heterotrophic, which means that they get the energy they need to live from other organisms. Like animals, fungi extract the energy stored in the bonds of organic compounds such as sugar and protein from living or dead organisms.

Mariulka [41]
All of the systems that are aroused by the <span>sympathetic nervous system</span> are relaxed by the parasympathetic nervous system. 
<span>autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a part of the central nervous system that controls all parts that the human cannot have a control on (which are done automatically) like heart rate and breath
ANS is divided in two opposite systems: sympathetic and parasympathetic:
</span>Parasympathetic nervous system: caracterized by the tag "<span>rest and digest" it decreases the heart rate, blood pressure, and breath. It increases the gastrointestinal motricity, letting the organism resting (this happen after a meal).
</span>Sympathetic nervous system: caracterized by the tag "fight or flight" it increases the heart rate, blood pressure, and breath. It decreases the gastrointestinal motricity, letting the organism focus on its environment (this happen when we are in danger).
