Weathering breaks down and loosens the surface minerals of rock so they can be transported away by agents of erosion such as water, wind and ice. There are two types of weathering: mechanical and chemical.
Which abiotic factor most likely controls where the plants live in this environment ?
Oxygen levels for aquatic animals
Oxygen from the air and oxygen produced by aquatic plants dissolves in water. Without this, aquatic animals would suffocate and die. Healthy lakes and rivers have high levels of oxygen, and polluted waters often have low levels of oxygen. This pollution means that only certain species can survive there such as sludgeworms. These are bioindicator species because their presence or absence informs us about the condition of the habitat.
Carbon dioxide levels for plants
Carbon dioxide is a reactant in photosynthesis which means plants need it to survive. Areas with higher levels of carbon dioxide are more likely to have healthy plants growing. Farmers often release carbon dioxide within their greenhouses to maximise their crop yield. Woodlands often have higher carbon dioxide levels than open grassland, so many plants living in open areas have evolved mechanisms to overcome a shortage of carbon dioxide.
Answer:
- False
- True
- True
- False
- False
- True
Explanation:
A hypothesis is a supposition draw from data to carry an investigation or an argumentation.
1. The onion cells I looked at have a nucleus. False, even though the statement is true, is not a hypothesis because is not a supposition, it is rather an observation.
2. All onion cells have a nucleus. True, it is s a <u>valid hypothesis</u> because after the observation of 10 cells you draw a conclusion or supposition and affirm that all onion cells have a nucleus.
3. All cells have a nucleus. True, it is a<u> valid hypothesis</u> it contains a supposition derived from data observation
4. Some cells have a nucleus. False, the hypothesis is not valid because all of the observed cells contained nucleus not only some of them.
5. Only onion cells have a nucleus. False, after the observation of the different type of cells you see that they all had nucleus.
6. If I look at 10 skin cells from my hand, each one will have a nucleus. True, after the observation of different cells you can infer that if you look at your skin cells, they will have a nucleus.
System that removes solid and liquid wastes is called excretory system.
