The correct answer is - B -Grass is easier for herbivores to digest.

The grassland ecosystems were revolutionary for the herbivores when they started to form, and big portion of them became grassland dwellers where they occupied the niche of primary consumers, because the forest ecosystems where not offering the same amount of advantages for feeding. Compering grasses and trees, the grass has more nutritional value, and it is also much easier for the herbivores to digest the grass, than to try and digest tree branches, thus the logical option for them was to move into the grasslands.

The grassland ecosystems are relatively new on the scene, and they only emerged around 20 million years ago in South America. Since they provided lots of food, and it was high nutrition, easy to digest food, the herbivores quickly moved in, thus increasing the number of primary consumers in this ecosystem.

Examine the following list of question
Zanzabum
1. Kids are afraid of ghost because ghosts are sometimes scary when you know that they can go through walls and go through you and anything. Kids sometimes watch movies about ghosts and get scared thunking that a ghost will haunt them. 2. I think feeding raccoons when they are at trash cans is the best idea because if it is at trash cans that means it has already its food and you shouldnt disturb it and give it more food because it will just be going to waste. Wild animals dont always eat food when you give it food. Wild animals are born knowing that to eat they eat out of trash cans so they already have their survival skills so dont bother them. 3. I dont really understand this one but i think that mouse color affects its survival because it is probably easy to spot so mouses probably get found alot by predetors. 4. I am pretty sure that mother ducks care for their babies because they teach them how to swim and the mother ducks feed its babies and they are always swimming in lines or groups until the baby ducks are grown up and old enough to go on their own. Basically, the mother ducks help its babies until it is old enough to go out on its own. Hope this helped! :)

Predict the most likely outcome of culturing transformed e coli in the presence of tetracycline answer
Llana [10]
E. coli are a species of bacteria. Like all bacteria, they have a round piece of DNA that contains most of their genetic information, but also plasmids, that contain some more. Plasmid can be passed on from bacterium to bacterium and they contain information for fighting antibiotics. Tetracycline is such an antibiotic. The process of putting a plasmid inside a bacterium is called transformation. So what the above sentence really says, is that a bacterium just got a plasmid that is probably holding the genetic information to produce proteins that fight antibiotics like tetracycline. While regular strains of E. coli might not be able to deal with tetracycline, transformed strains will probably be able to survive it. Hence, the culture will have live bacteria and the bacteria that have a plasmid against tetracycline will be favored and survive.
