Answer: c. volcano

An ecological succession is a gradual change in the biological community due to changes in the non-living or abiotic factors of the ecosystem and with respect to time until the ecosystem attains stability. Primary succession occurs in region which is not previously inhabitat by any floral or faunal species. It occurs specifically in barren and lifeless landforms. This includes regions where soil is incapable for plant growth. Hot lava released after volcanic eruption will make the soil unsuitable for plant growth also rocks found in these regions are compact. Therefore, pioneer or primitive species act on such rocks and soil like lichen and produces acids which remove the compaction from these soils and make them suitable for growth of plants in that region.

The half life of Carbon 14 is 5500 years. How many years will pass for a 30 gram sample to reach 3.75 grams

sertanlavr [38]

Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original mass. In this case the half life of carbon-14 is 5500 years.
The original mass is 30 g and the new mass is 3.75 g.
New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n, where n is the number of half lives;
3.75 = 30 × (1/2)^n
1/8 = (1/2)^n
n = 3
Thus, the time taken will be; 3 × 5500 = 16500 years.

Hom-ozygous tall pea plants look the same as heterozygous tall pea plants. Formulate a pollination experiment to identify whethe

andre [41]

We can use a punnet square to predict the outcomes of the offspring when crossing two tall plants, and base the experiment we will perform on those probabilities.

A punnet square is a tool used by many genetic scientists. It uses the genetic makeup of the parents to guess those of the offspring. The punnet square will give us probabilities for each outcome. We can design an experiment in which we make predictions using a punnet square based on Hom-ozygous alleles and heterozygous alleles.

Only by using two Hom-ozygous plants can we guarantee 100% tall plants, and only by using two heterozygous plants can we produce a short plant. Therefore, we can repeat the experiments until a short plant appears or we can only tall plants, and this way we can single out the Hom-ozygous and heterozygous plants.
