Answer:

Gaseous exchange between leaves and atmosphere would be disturbed due to blocked stomata.

Explanation:

Leaves have stomata on their surfaces. Through stomata, plants take the oxygen in for respiration. Carbon dioxide gas is also released into the atmosphere through stomata. Similarly, plants take the atmospheric CO2 through stomata to perform the process of photosynthesis. The molecular oxygen produced as a by-product during photosynthesis is also released through stomata.

Coating both sides of leaves with petroleum jelly or wax would block stomata. Leaves of the plant with coating would not be able to perform breathing and photosynthesis.

In a fish species, the number of eggs that hatch and survive for one year varies depending on the number of eggs that were produ
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

C. The chance of survival decreases when there is intraspecific competition for resources among surviving yearlings

Explanation:

The survival rate of the offspring of the fish species will decrease as a result of the huge number of eggs produced giving rise to overpopulation. Pressure will be on the limited available resources. As a result of this, Intraspecific competition would occur as members of the same fish species would compete for the limited resources.  

Interference and exploitation competition are two types of Intraspecific competition that can reduce the population size of the fish species.

For Interference competition, the dominant and stronger members would secure adequate supply of the limited resources to  detriment of the weaker and less dominant ones. This leads to the death of those members that are weak to compete successfully, thereby leading to a reduction in population size.

In exploitation competition, it involves all individual members of the fish species sharing the limited resources equally, while none of them gets an adequate amount. With time, a great size of the population decrease would be noticed when compared to that of Interference competition.

Select the correct answer. An object is acted upon by a force of 22 newtons to the right and a force of 13 newtons to the left.
lana [24]

Answer:The net force is the sum of all the forces acted upon an object. The direction of force depends on which side you are taking as a positive and negative force. If the force of 22 newtons is positive and the force of 13 newtons is negative, they are actng on the object on different directions, thus in order to get the net force, we just sum them up.

newtons

The net force is +9 Newtons.
