What role does oxygen play in a plants life?
aleksandrvk [35]
Plants need oxygen to survive , no oxygen mean the plant will diePlants do need oxygen to survive. They respire (take in oxygen, give off carbon dioxide) the same way that animals do. The difference is that during the day, plants also perform photosynthesis, in which they take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.Plants require oxygen for respiration to carry out their functions of water and nutrient uptake. In soil adequate oxygen is usually available, but plant roots growing in water will quickly exhaust the supply of dissolved oxygen and can be damaged or killed unless additional air is provided. A common method of supplying oxygen is to bubble air through the solution. It is not usually necessary to provide supplementary oxygen in aeroponic or continuous flow systems.Oxygen is vital ingredient in plant survival

A twin study is conducted to examine the role of genetics and environment on the fondness of individuals for chocolate. Which of
djyliett [7]

"Identical twins are more similar on the trait than fraternal twins" would lead to the conclusion that genetic factors are important in the development of this trait.

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Research performed on identical or fraternal twins are twin investigations. We seek to expose the significance for characteristics, phenotypes and diseases of environmental and genetic factors. Twin work is considered a key instrument in the domains of behavioral genetics and material, from biology to psychology.

Fraternal or dizygous twins each share around 50 % of their DNA, just like any other parent. Since the twins are born into the same family they share other factors of their surroundings. The existence of a given genetic or phenotypic trait in just one component of a pair of twins called discordance offers a valuable insight into influence on such a trait on climate.

If hunting continues and drastically reduces the deer population, how might this impact the hawk population?
laiz [17]
Well, considering if the deer and the hawk have a direct predator prey relationship, where the deer are the prey, then the hawk population will also drop quite a lot, unless they have some other major food sources, but chances are they'll still drop.

If it's NOT a direct predator prey situation, for example: The deer happen to eat something that the hawks also eat, or the deer are prey for something the hawks eat:
If the deer eat something the hawks eat, by them dropping it means there will be more food supply for the hawks, meaning as the deer population drops, the hawk population will go up.

If the deer are PREY to something the hawk eats, then by there being less deer, then whatever the primary consumer of the deer is will also drop. If the hawk eats that predator, then there will be less of those predators, and less prey, meaning the hawk population will still drop

You were most likely given a food web to look at. Seeing how you didn't post that, I just gave you the only 3 situations that could happen.

~Hope this helps!

WORD BANK : Match Word with the associated pollution
Troyanec [42]

Ozone is formed by the reaction of of nitrous oxides and reactive organic substance catalyzed by sunlight. This is a photochemical reaction provided with ozone forming compounds and sunlight.


Acid rain is defined as nitrous(NO2) and sulfurous (SO2) compounds enter the atmosphere as smog thereby precipitating as acid rain. This is detrimental in the environment as well as in agriculture. 


Global warming is precipitated by the burning of fossil fuels that increases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that traps heat, in the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is the main principle behind global warming.


Ocean acidification is when excessive carbon dioxide is dissolved in the oceans as carbonic acid thereby increasing the pH of the ocean. Increases in the pH of the ocean can affect the living conditions as well as industrial conditions near it.


Groundwater pollution is defined as contaminating the groundwater with the runoff from industrial agriculture including organic and inorganic wastes as well as infectious and nuclear wastes. 


Algae blooms or algal blooms are precipitated by eutrophication or the increase in nutrients in water such as nitrogenous compounds and phosphorus from fertilizers. Eutrophication of water precipitates the abnormally high growth rate of algae.


Ozone layer destruction is associated with CFCs such as Freon and aerosols as these compounds neutralize and destroy ozone. These compounds form free radicals that convert ozone (O3) to oxygen (O2) thereby reducing its capability to protect the earth from UV radiation.


Deforestation is primarily caused by urbanization (cutting down trees to provide empty land in building structures) and industrial farming (converting forests into agricultural lands for farming).
