Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "shallow roots".

Explanation:

Some plants had developed shallow roots as an adaptation to permafrost. The artic plants have shallow roots because the permafrost does not allow the plants to push its roots deep down under the frozen topsoil looking for liquid water. Most arctic plants have a very short growing period of time since the liquid water above the frozen topsoil lasts liquid only from 50 to 90 days per year.

What is the dominant impact that humans have on alpine glaciers?
prisoha [69]

The researchers estimate that between 1990 and 2010, some 69 percent of the mass lost by the world's alpine glaciers can be traced to human influence – basically global warming. This 2013 file photo shows the Mendenhall Glaicer where it spills over the mountains above Mendenhall Lake in Juneau, Alaska.

Two species of meadowlarks have different mating calls that lead to reproductive isolation. What type of isolation does this exa
77julia77 [94]
Hi there!

The example of the meadowlarks is an example of behavioral isolation. This is because the mating call is a behavior the birds exhibit. This helps the birds to find their correct mate because though the birds look similar, they are not able to produce offspring.

Hope this helps!! :)

ILL GIVE 60 POINTS AND A BRAINIEST

Answer:

1. The school board wants to clear the forest surrounding the local high school to build more fields for high school sports. Following environmental factors need to be investigated before clearing the land:

1. Destruction of natural ecosystem: As forest will be cut the land will be barren. There will be loss , extinction and migration of faunal species. So, the normal balance of ecosystem will b disturbed.

2. Chances of climatic fluctuations: As, forest will be cleared, the water, carbon and oxygen cycle in the atmosphere will be disturbed. The region may not acquire adequate rainfall, temperature of the area will change drastically.

3. Soil erosion: As, forest will be cleared the soil will not be hold up and the loose soil gets wiped out from the location by water or air.The cutting of trees can cause flooding from nearby water body.

2. Two ways to reduce air pollution and slow climatic change are:

1. Control use of fossil fuels: Fossil fuels like coal, petrol, kerosene are used in automobiles, industries and house hold activities. These fossil fuels are organic in nature and adds up carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide gases in air and raises the atmospheric temperature and are responsible for air pollution. Therefore, the use of fossil fuel should be in control manner.

2. Planting more number of trees: The trees are responsible for fixing atmospheric carbon from air for photosynthesis. So, they can decrease the amount of atmospheric carbon abundantly present in forms of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, which are chief air pollutants. These carbon products are responsible for raising temperature so planting of trees can prevent raise of temperature.
