Explanation:

The correct answer is phototrophism.

Phototrophism is said to be the growth of a plant toward a source of light.

It is response to the stimulus of  light and is seen when a plant bends towards the direction that light is coming from. Response by plants to a stimulus is called tropism. The  word or prefix "photo" means or refers to light. Therefore phototropism simply means response to light.

Phototropism can be especially evident in the jungle where the jungle floor gets very little light. If a tall tree falls to the ground, it leaves a gap in the canopy through which sunlight streams to the ground. Many jungle plants growing on the ground will bend towards the  gap  and rapidly grow towards the source of  light.

What purpose does a fish ladder serve?
Whitepunk [10]

<u>Answer</u>: Option A

<u>Explanation</u> :

  • A<em> fish ladder</em> is also known as fish steps, fish pass or fishway.
  • It is built around waterfalls, dams and locks.
  • The purpose of building a fish ladder is to<em> facilitate the natural migration of diadromous fishes.</em>
  • A fish ladder helps the fish to pass through the barriers by leaping up or swimming through the low steps of the ladder and reach into the water on the other side.
  • Since, without the fish ladder the barriers will not allow the migration of fishes, it is essential to be built around the dams, waterfalls and locks.
