Answer;

A forest fire that was caused by lightning

Explanation;

-Density-independent factors are factors such as weather and climate, that exert their influences on population size regardless of the population's density. In contrast, the effects of density-dependent factors intensify as the population increases in size.

-Density-independent limiting factor have the same effect regardless of population size, for example - If there is a wild fire, the fire destroys all the animals in the forest regardless of how many animals there are. The fire does not care how big the population is.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

C. K+ ions flow out the the guard cells and water flows out the cells.

Explanation:

The turgidity of the guard cells allows the opening and closing of the stomata. This is especially necessary when it comes to water conservation in plants. In order for the cells to become turgid or flaccid, there must be the influx and out ward movement of water via osmosis.

In order for this the occur the osmotic pressure of the cellular environment must change and this is done by changing the solute concentration.

The pumping in of K+ ions out the cell allows the solute concentration to decrease and this in turn encourages the movement of water across a concentration gradient through a semi-permiable membrane.

The water leaves the guard cells and they become flaccid. This causes the stomata to be covered.

4. Which material dissolves<br> most substances in chemical<br> weathering?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Water is important in chemical weathering because most substances dissolve in water.

The process of dissolving breaks up the minerals in the rock into small pieces. The small pieces mix with water to form.  

Acids are also agents of chemical weathering and cause more chemical weathering than pure water does.
