The correct answer is - Mercator projection map.
The Mercator projection map is a cylindrical type of map that represents the Earth in rectangular manner. While the map may seem as a nice representation of the Earth, and it has accurate directions, it also has some flaws. The biggest flaw of this map is the distortion of the sizes. The distortion is non existent on the Equator, but as it moves north and south of it towards the poles, the distortion is constantly increasing. This projection is not made to be able to cope with the increase of the scale, especially when it it is infinite at the poles.
Because of this, on this map, Greenland looks very similar in size with Africa, even though in reality it is around 15 times smaller.
1. “Research the problem” matches with “use reliable sources, talk to experts and take notes”
2. “Organize data” matches with “create charts or graphs to display the results”
3. “Design an experiment” matches with “set up a procedure for testing your ideas; including variables and controls”
4. “Hypothesis” matches with “must be testable and falsifiable”
5. “Choose a problem” matches with “Come up with a question that can be answered”
Answer:
Commensalism only occur among biotic factors
Explanation:
Abiotic factors are non-living factors that interacts with the biotic factor within an ecosystem. Commensalism is an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
From the above definition of commensalism, it is clear to note that it only involves two organisms rather than non-living organisms, hence; commensalism involves only biotic factors
Answer:
D
Explanation:
You can immediately eliminate B and C. So between A and D, D is the best answer.
Answer:
a. commensalism is the correct answer.
Explanation:
By growing on the trunk or branch of a tree, a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis. The tree is not harmed by the lichen but does not benefit either. The relationship between the lichen and the tree is commensalism.
Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms where one organism gets benefits from other organisms without causing any harm or any damage from the relation as it one side symbiotic relation.
In this, we can see lichen is getting benefits from the tree.
for example, lichen is getting following benefits from the tree such as ( a lichen gains height and exposure to sunlight for photosynthesis.) and they are causing any harm to tree neither any benefits so this is a one-side symbiotic relation and thus the relationship is an example of commensalism.
