Answer: B. a plant that grew close to the ground in a damp location.

C. a plant that dried out quickly in the sun.

In the history of earth through palentological evidences of fossilized plants it has been proved that land plants are evolved from aquatic plants. The example of these simple primitive plants includes bryophytes like hornworts, liverworts and mosses. The bryophytes undergone several adaptations to develop into modern plants like angiosperms and gymnosperms.

These plants used to grow on damp location because they lack true root and vascular system which are necessary to derive  dissolved water and nutrients from the soil.Therefore, the already wet location was useful to acquire water in those primitive plants.

These primitive plants dried out quickly in the sun because they had not developed adaptations like stomata (pores allows water and gases exchange) and wax coating on stems and leaves both of these features prevents loss of water due to transpiration (process of loss of water from plant) and keep plant hydrated. These two features were absent in primitive plants hence, they dried out.

A species of fly has two alleles for the length of their legs. The allele for long
Artyom0805 [142]
The answer is A. 0.54.

In a population p+q=1 (we have 2 alleles only).

The question states that 0.21 of the population(21%) have short legs meaning they are q^2.

So q=rad0.21=0.4582.

And p=1-q=0.5417.

Area measuring 5 m² contains 50 earthworms what is the population density of the earth worms
Darina [25.2K]

The density of a population of living organisms is usually measured in individuals on one square km. In here we have 50 earthworms on an area of 5 square meters, thus we have 10 earthworms on every square meter. In order to get to the result we need to see first how many square meters there are in one square km. One square km has one thousand meters of length and one thousand meters of width so:

1,000 x 1,000 = 1,000,000 km²

Since we established that we have 10 earthworms on every one square meter, we just need to multiply the number of square meters with the amount of earthworms on every square meter:

1,000,000 x 10 = 10,000,000

So we have a density of 10 million earthworms per square km.
