Cause nitrogen causes plants to grow very well. I don't think plants can do anything with nitrogen gas, the only way they can get it is through the roots, called fixed nitrogen. In nature the only things that fix nitrogen are lightning and microbes that exist in roots of certain plants. So nitrogen is rare in nature and is a limiting factor in plant growth.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Directional selection tends to evolve towards one specific trait. In this example, white rabbits no longer have a competitive advantage because of disappearing snow. This means they are more easily spotted by predators, resulting in reduced fitness and less chance they will live to reproductive age and pass their recessive white alleles on.

Natural selection will favor the gray colour allele, increasing the frequency oft this previously rare allele.

When Lactate Builds Up In A Runner's Muscles, It Causes A Burning Sensation. What Causes This To Occur?
Fantom [35]

One of the most general forms of discomfort or pain one feels at the time of strenous work out is a burning sensation in the muscles or lungs, which goes away after some time, that is, after stopping the activity. This is a result of an accumulation of lactic acid.

Lactic acid is a by-product of the procedure the body goes through when it requires to generate energy more briskly that it does usually, like when one exercises.

The muscles functioning generally produce energy aerobically, that is, by using oxygen, however, when one push himself or herself at the time of workout and enough oxygen is not accessible, then these muscles start producing energy anaerobically, resulting in production of lactic acid as a by-product and ultimately causing burning sensation.
