Answer:
Answer is option A.
Orchid bees are to Brazil nut trees as breezes are to pine trees.
Explanation:
In Brazil nut trees, the female orchid bees act as pollinators that help in pollination. In pine trees, wind or breeze helps in pollination.
Pine trees are gymnosperms and so they do not have flowers to attract pollinators like bees or butterflies or birds. They are wind-pollinated. Pine trees are monoecious i.e., both male and female reproductive structures (pine cones) are present on the same tree.
The male cones (catkins) produce pollen grains that are lightweight, less sticky and have air bladders or small wing-like structures. As a result of these features, the pollen grains can be easily carried and dispersed by the breeze. In order to prevent self pollination (pollen falling on the female cones of the same tree), the male cones are normally located on the lower branches of the pine tree.
The female cones are located on the upper branches of the tree and the center of the cone contains eggs or ovules. The pollen grains that are carried by the wind, fall on the female cone of another pine tree. Each pollen grain grows a pollen tube into the center of the cone and the nucleus cell of the pollen travels through the tube and reaches the egg, where it combines with the egg to form an embryo. The embryo eventually grows into a seed. The seeds of pine trees are then dispersed by wind or animals such as squirrels.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
absorbed by Earth’s core
When energy from the sun reaches Earth, it is not <em><u>absorbed by Earth's core.</u></em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The energy from the sun reaches the earth, such that 23 percent of the incoming solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere by water vapor, dust and ozone. </u></em>
- <em><u>48 percent of the solar energy is absorbed by the earth's surface, this translates to 71 percent of the energy which is absorbed by the systems of the Earth.</u></em>
- <em><u>The remaining 29 percent is reflected back to space by clouds, atmospheric particles etc. </u></em>
Mycorrhizae, specialized symbiotic associations between the roots of plants and fungi, are characteristic of about 90% of all plants.
Mycorrhizal fungi are a symbiotic combination of fungi and plants. The term mycorrhiza refers to the role of fungi in a plant's rhizome, its root system. Mycorrhizae play an important role in plant nutrition, soil biology, and soil chemistry.
In mycorrhizal organization, the fungus resides in the root tissues of the host plant, either intracellularly as in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF or AM), or extracellularly as in extrinsic fungi.
The association is sometimes reciprocal. In some species or in specific cases, mycorrhizal fungi may have a parasitic association with the host plant.
Mycorrhizae are generally divided into ectomycorrhizae and endomycorrhizae. These two types are distinguished by the fact that mycelium of mycorrhizal fungi does not penetrate individual root cells while mycelium of endophytic fungi penetrates the cell wall and penetrates the cell membrane.
