Biology
1 answer:
Marta_Voda [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

the correct answers are C and D: "<em>Both partners are able to grow on substrates on which each would not be able to grow on their own</em>", and "<em>The fungi receive carbohydrates and, in some cases nitrogen, from the algae, while the algae gain a "home" that anchors them on the substrate</em>".

Explanation:

Lichens are the result of a symbiotic association between algae and a fungus. These two organisms must cooperate to survive in places under certain inhospitable conditions, where otherwise, they would not be able to survive by themselves. Algaes are the photosynthetic organisms that provide carbohydrates to fungus. These last ones, get the carbon and energy they need to grow, and in exchange, they protect the algae from dehydration and radiation, and they might also provide minerals for their survival. Algae can also get a way to get attached to the substrate. When instead of regular algae, there is a prokaryotic cyanobacterium, these can also supply with fix nitrogen to fungus, in the form of nitrogenous compounds.

Answer:

i dont know exactly what characteristic it would be

Explanation:

the variation of the beak shape was because the islands had diffrences to them. so on some of the islands the nuts would be bigger or smaller. The birds had to adapt to this so their beaks changed when you looked at the diffrent birds on the diffrent islands. The finches would have big beaks on one island because the nuts were bigger and they need food, but on another island the nuts were smaller so the finches on that island would have a smaller and more narrow beak. so bassiaclly the diffrences were because the birds adapted over time so they could use their beaks to properly eat.

Basements are not constructed in some places. what is the reason of not constructing basements
GaryK [48]

Answer:The last minor reason there are no basements in the south has to do with the frost line. For a building to maintain strength, its foundation should be below the frost line in the soil. ... There is no reason for builders in the south to build a basement because the foundation doesn't need to be very deep anyway.

Why is it cooler in the summer near oceans and lakes, but warmer in the winter?
azamat
The warm air rises and the cooler coastal air moves in to replace it. Since the air is moving from the sea toward the land, this type of breeze is called a sea breeze. At night, the air inland cools down, and sometimes it cools down so much that it is cooler than the coastal air.
