Answer;

B. Periodic drought causes an abrupt decrease in vegetation.

Explanation;

-Density-independent factors are those factors limiting the size of a population whose effect is not dependent on the number of individuals in the population, such as weather and climate, exert their influences on population size regardless of the population's density.

-The density dependent factors on the other hand are factors whose effects on the size or growth of the population vary with the population density. There are many types of density dependent limiting factors such as; availability of food, predation, disease, and migration.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Linings of hollow organs

Explanation:

Smooth muscle cells are usually found in the lining of hollow organs such as all arteries and veins, wall of stomach, uterus, urinary bladder, digestive system etc. The cells of these linings are spindle shaped and consist of a nucleus at the center which lacks striations.  

They work as a housekeeper and are under involuntary control except the heart. They lack striation because of irregular arraying of actin and myosin filament along the length of the cell.

What is the probability that a cross between a true-breeding pea plant with spherical seeds and a true-breeding pea plant with w
notsponge [240]

Answer:

1 or 100%

Explanation:

Let the allele for seed shape be represented by S.

True breeding spherical shape seeded pea plant will have SS as genotype

True breeding pea plant with wrinkled seeds will have ss as genotype

Crossing the two:     SS  x   ss

Progeny: Ss, Ss, Ss, Ss

Based on the assumption that spherical shape allele is dominant over wrinkle shape allele, all the F1 offspring will have spherical seeds.

<em>Hence, the probability is 1 or 100%</em>
