Answer:

Plasma tail

Explanation:

A comet is a body in space which revolves around Sun in elliptical orbit. It is composed of rocks, dust, ice and frozen gases. A comet has mainly three parts:

Nucleus- It is the core of the comet which is solid.

As the comet nears the sun, the frozen gases start sublimating. An atmosphere surrounds the nucleus which is known as coma.

As the comet approaches the sun closely, the coma extends backwards due to solar wind. The solar wind pushes the ionized gases of the comet away from the nucleus. This is known as tail. There are two tails - dust tail and  plasma tail. Plasma tail is composed of ionized gases -heavier than the dust tail and thus lies below it.

Bryophytes never formedforests (mats maybe, but not forests)
podryga [215]

Answer:

C) they lack lignified vascular tissue. ( Since they do not have vascular tissues, they are not able to develop vertically like the trees we know.)

Explanation:

A) Plants do not have "sperm". They have sporophytes or gametophytes.

B) No specific parasitic bacteria of bryophytes are known.

D) In fact, they have. Although they require water for their reproduction, some species of bryophytes are found in deserts.

E) Rhizoids are not weak, otherwise they would not have the ability to keep bryophytes attached (mosses).

1. How do disturbances (or catastrophes) affect ecological succession? Be as specific as possible. Right answers only.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

There are two types of ecological succession:

Primary succession:

Primary succession occurs in areas which were previously devoid of life. There were no organisms living in this area before. For example, lands after new glaciers or volcano  eruptions. Firstly, microorganisms begin to habitat this land, followed by plants like lichens, shrubs etc. Finally, complex life evolved from these.

Secondary succession:

Secondary succession arises in areas where life existed before but was destroyed due to natural circumstances like flood, fire etc. Small grasses inhabit this land first which are taken over by trees over  period of time.
