Answer and Explanation:
The difference between a food chain and a food web:
<u>Food Chain</u>
- Only one possible direct line of energy going through organisms
- Consists of usually 4-6 organisms
<u>Food Web</u>
- Multiple links that branch off in a web-like form, with some organisms being interconnected with each other.
<u>The answer is the third option: A food chain represents one possible pathway that energy and matter can take in an ecosystem. A food web contains multiple, interconnected food chains and describes how energy and matter moves through an entire ecosystem.</u>

Great question! Let me first talk about how sedimentary rocks are formed. Sedimentary rocks are formed when when existing rocks are broken down in sediment. Now, let me explain what they are. Sedimentary rocks are rocks that have been weathered into rock fragments or pieces.
One example can be the needle shaped leaves.
In desert areas, there are not much water sources. So basically, any drop of water is precious. To help prevent water loss of plants, for example cactus has very thin leaves that are needle shaped. Or some even don't have any leaves. This can reduce the surface area of leaves and thus reduce the water evaporating to the outer environment.
Another example also shown on cactus is that they have very thick waxy cuticle. It can also prevent water from evaporating from the stem. So that's why you see the stem is very shinny.
Answer:
Starting at the spinal cord, the subdivisions of the brachial plexus are (in order): roots, trunks, divisions, and cords.
Explanation:
The brachial plexus is a nervous network that is located at the base of the neck, and connects the spinal cord to all peripheral nerves in the arm. It is composed of five spinal roots (C5, C6, C7, C8 and T1) that join, forming three primary trunks: the upper trunk, which comes from the anterior branches of nerves C5 and C6, the middle trunk, comes from the anterior branch of nerve C7 and the lower trunk: it comes from the anterior branches of nerves C8 and T1. Once the clavicle is passed, each trunk is divided into an anterior and a posterior division, which will be reorganized to form the secondary trunks, fascicles or cords. The set of the posterior branches forms the posterior cord. The union of the anterior branches of the upper and middle trunk forms the lateral cord and the anterior branch of the lower trunk gives rise to the medial cord.
