Answer:
Lichens are not parasitic when they grow on trees, they just use the tree bark as a home. They enrich the soil by trapping water, dust and silt. When lichens die they contribute organic matter to the soil, improving the soil so that other plants can grow there.
The right option is; d. consumers
All animals are consumers
Consumers are organisms that usually feed on other organisms or organic matter in order to gain energy because of their inability to manufacture their food from inorganic sources. All animals are consumers and they are also known as heterotrophs. There are different types of consumers. They include; primary consumers (herbivores e.g. goats, cows), secondary consumers (carnivores e.g. wolves, crocodile), and tertiary consumers (large carnivores e.g. eagle, lion)
The correct answer to this question is a: metamorphosis. Many
insects take on multiple forms through different parts of their lifecycle. For
example, many lepidopteran species (i.e., butterflies) include a caterpillar
juvenile stage. To reach the adult stage, the juvenile stage has to go through
metamorphosis, where its adult form is strikingly different from its juvenile
form.
I think this is a good plan. In this way, it would stop flooding in the future. Trees help absorb water with their roots. It can absorb at least 20% of the flood water.
However, there are also factors that would affect the trees from growing healthily. Some of the trees would not receive the right amount of energy and sediments can possibly be mix with the good soil.
It is best that we examine why the flooding occurred. There could be other possible reasons for flooding. It can be pollution caused by people throwing their garbages anywhere.
