Biology

Flura [38]4 years ago

How does a new hypothesis replace an older explanation of something in the natural world? To understand this let us look at one of the classical example of geocentric theory and heliocentric theory. The geocentric theory states the Earth is at the centre of the solar system and the Sun, Moon, and all the other planets revolve around it. This ancient theory failed to explain the phenomenon like the phases of Moon, solar eclipse and lunar eclipse. The modern heliocentric theory which states that the Sun is at the centre of solar system, and all the planets including the Earth revolve around it. This theory was able to explain all the phenomenons unlike the geocentric theory. Hence the heliocentric theory replaced the geocentric theory.

What are the abiotic factors in salt marshes?
nadezda [96]

The abiotic factors in salt marshes  include:

1. High, variable  salinity

2. Low oxygen levels

3. Turbidity

4. Varying temperature

5. Sulphide toxicity

Salt marshes occur in zones between low and high tides. Salt marshes are periodically flooded by tides , so the plants living there have had to adapt to being submerged in salt water.

 Only a limited number of plant and animal species can tolerate the harsh conditions of salt marshes  and therefore salt marshes are generally poor in species.
