Answer: Mycorrhiza
Explanation: Mycorrhiza is a symbiotic relationship between a plant and a fungi. Nearly 80 percent of all plants with root systems participate in this mutualistic relationship. In mycorrhiza, the fungus forms a haustoria that penetrates the cell walls of the plant's roots. The fungus absorbs all the nutrients from the roots as they are transported to the plant. In return, the fungus gives the plant necessary chemicals and minerals that it cannot properly reach on its own.

Answer:
The environmental factor that could lead to a decrease in genetic variation in a tuna population is an increase in pollution (second option).
Explanation:
There is a correlation between genetic variability and environmental pollution, the latter being a factor that impacts negatively on the variability of a specific population.
The concept of pollution stress not only implies a low rate of reproduction, but it is also a factor that prevents genetic exchange with other populations, which is a factor that makes the genetic variability decrease in a population.
For these reasons an increase in pollution implies a decrease in genetic variability in a tuna population.
- <em>Other options, such as </em><u><em>an increase in food availability</em></u><em>, a</em><u><em> decrease in tuna fishing
</em></u><em> or </em><u><em>a decrease in tuna predators</em></u><em>, are environmental factors that contribute to increased genetic variability.</em>
Answer:
At the “center” of each amino acid is a carbon called the α carbon and attached to it are four groups - a hydrogen, an α- carboxyl group, an α-amine group, and an R-group, sometimes referred to as a side chain.
