Answer:

Dead leaves

Explanation:

Small streams that remain shaded in any area (due to dense canopy) are unable to get sufficient light and hence they depend for their energy on other resources.

Usually, a shady stream is found in a temperate environment, where interlocked canopies block the path of sun light. However, ample amount of leaves (as food base) are supplied to these streams. Biological communities in these shady streams feed upon the leaves and release fine organic particle and oxygen with in the stream thereby making it oxygenated and cool.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u>b. False</u>

Explanation:

As human has about 350 olfactory receptors and subtypes work in various conditions allowing us to sense about 10,000 doors. All senses of smell and tastes merge at the back of the throat.

As you taste something before smelling it the smell lingers on inside in the nose which makes you smell it. As both the smell and taste are chemoreceptors which means both have chemically same sensing environments.

In addition, the division of taste receptors within the nose coordinate with activities, although humans can distinguish between the tastes from the smells of the objects.

Working together to create a perception of flavor through the nasal passage.
