<h2><u><em>
Types of Dispersion Patterns
</em></u></h2>
- <em>If you're hiking through a forest, you might notice that some species of plants - like certain flowers or bushes - seem evenly spaced, while others - like wild mushrooms - are clustered together in only certain parts of the habitat.
</em>
<em>
</em>
- <em>Within any given plant or animal population, or group of individuals of the same species living in the same area, individuals can be spaced in different ways called dispersion patterns. There are three types of dispersion patterns.</em>
- <em>Clumped dispersion is when individuals in a population are clustered together, creating some patches with many individuals and some patches with no individuals. In uniform dispersion, individuals are spaced evenly throughout an area. And in random dispersion, individuals are arranged without any apparent pattern.
</em>
- <em>
</em>
- <em>In natural populations, random dispersion is rare, while clumped dispersion, which we'll focus on in this lesson, is the most common pattern.
</em>
- <em>
</em>
- <em>Clumped dispersion is often due to an uneven distribution of nutrients or other resources in the environment. It can also be caused by social interactions between individuals. Additionally, in organisms that don't move, such as plants, offspring might be very close to their parents and show clumped dispersion patterns. Let's further examine each of these three reasons for clumped dispersion.</em>

Answer:
d. 28,650 years
Explanation:
Since 14C has a single half-life of 5,730 years
The number of years that is going to make up 5 half-lives for 14C will be;
5,730 years × 5 = 28,650 years

Answer:
The answer is E.) Lithosphere, Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
Tectonic plates belong to the layer called Lithosphere. The tectonic plates float on the Asthenosphere which is below the Lithosphere and more fluid than the crust.
From the Earth's surface to the its center we can say that the inside of the Earth is divided into four layers which, starting from the top , are:
i) the crust
ii) the mantle, (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere , Mesosphere)
iii) the outer core
iv) the inner core.
The tectonic plates are part of the Lithosphere and are constantly moving even though the crust is fairly solid. This is because the inner layers
( Asthenosphere , Mesosphere) are much are fluid and are constantly moving which tends to move the tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates collide they do so with tremendous force which leads to earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis as well resulting in a loss of life and property.
