. In a forest, trees grow tall and branches grow long to get enough sunlight. B. A cactus has spines to ward off predators. C. Potato plants store food in underground potatoes for use when necessary.. D. Leaves on trees turn green in the spring due to increased sunlight, which allows for photosynthesis.

<span>Assume: Energy = Sunlight.

grow lamps, etc.

A is definitely correct: Plants and trees that need maximum light MUST be able to grow as tall or taller than the other plants/trees around them. Plants that are more efficient at producing food (through photosynthesis) can live in the shadows of other plants. B doesnt involve getting or using energy. C is the function of food storage. The Energy was used to make the carbohydrates up in the leaves. D This should read New Leaves on the tree... If the tree was not deciduous, the leaves would stay on the tree and continue to perform photosynthesis throughout the year - as long as there was ample light. A is definitely correct and D is probably a correct answer also. FYI - Photosynthesis takes water from the plant, CO2 from the air and Energy from the Sunlight. Chloroplasts (the Green in the green leaves and stems) combine the molecules and light energy to produce 3 byproducts: O2, H2O, and Carbohydrates (mainly sugar or C12H22O11). The carbohydrates are then transported by the plants capillary system (by means of the Phloem which flows down to the roots) to the roots where it is converted as needed to be stored as some form of sugar or starch for use later in plant growth (leaves, stems and roots).</span>

Answer:   3- mutation, natural selection, migration

Explanation:

1-genetic drift, mutation, natural selection

2-mutation, founder principle, bottleneck effect

3-mutation, natural selection, migration (gene flow)

The correct answer for this question is" #3.mutation, natural selection, migration (gene flow)." The sequence of evolutionary mechanisms which have come into effect in each event is that of mutation, natural selection and migration. There is a steady rise in the population of bright-colored fish. Both populations thrive.

 “The outer energy levels are full, but that doesn’t mean the inner ones are,” says a friend. How would you respond?
Anton [14]

He is WRONG

Explanation:

Any atom at the ground state has its orbital levels fill from the bottom (close to the nucleus) – up. The inner orbitals are of lower energy state and fill first because the atoms ‘likes’ to exist in the low energy and more stable state. Only when the atom is in an excited state do some of the electrons in the lower orbital levels shift to higher unfilled orbitals.
