Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Option A,  Ohio River and the Missouri River

Explanation:

The historical evidences clearly indicate that Ohio River did not exist before the last ice advances. Before Ohio and Missouri river, the major glacier drainage of the east-west direction happens in Teays River. When ice of the glaciers blocked the Teaya river valley, then the Ohio was formed.

Like Ohio, Missouri river did also not exist before Pleistocene and during that time the largest drainage in North America take place in the Hudson's Bay

The image above shows the natural progression of a forest in a process called ecological succession. If a mature climax forest i
liubo4ka [24]

Explanation:

The community may enter primary succession.

Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:

  • colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary succession)
  • becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
  • there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.

Like the harvested climax forest, secondary communities do not begin with the removal of soil and all biological life; other species, may be more suited to the altered conditions and begin to modify the area creating a new community.

However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.

Describe the fungi reproduction process.<br><br>Please I really need this answer ASAP.
Luden [163]

Fungi reproduce asexually by fragmentation, budding, or producing spores. Fragments of hyphae can grow new colonies. Mycelial fragmentation occurs when a fungal mycelium separates into pieces with each component growing into a separate mycelium. There are many types of asexual spores.
