Answer:

D. Species diversity tends to increase as a result of ecological succession.

Explanation:

Ecological succession is the process by which plant communities develop over a period of time on the land where there was no vegetation. The succession begins with a pioneer species such as lichens, some fungi species. Species such as lichen begins to secrete acids that begin to break the barren land into small particles. The small particles mix with lichen remains and starts soil formation. On addition of soil more diverse plant species such as bryophytes and pteridophytes grow. Later on, these plants are replaced by most diverse angiosperms. In this way, species diversity tends to increase as a result of ecological succession.

Which of the following organisms is the most harmful to the tree it grows on?
Mice21 [21]

The organism among the given options which is the most harmful to the tree that it grows on is the strangler fig. The strangler fig is a type of the tropical fig. It grows on host trees, which leads to the death of the host. The roots of the strangler fig moves over the trunk of the host tree covering it. The multiple roots graft together and enclose the host completely.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option A - strangler fig'.

When an object slides down a ramp with friction, the kinetic energy at the bottom of the ramp is not equal to the potential ener
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Thus, in relation to the question, as the object slides down the ramp, the kinetic energy should increase at the same rate the potential energy is reducing in such a way that the kinetic energy of the object at the bottom of the ramp should be equal to the potential energy of the object at the top of the ramp (since the energy was been "transferred" as the object moved). However, this situation only occurs, as explained, in the absence of friction. <u>In the presence of friction, some of the energy is used to overcome friction as the object moves down the ramp and as such there is an energy loss due to friction in the process which makes the kinetic energy at the bottom of the ramp not equal to the potential energy at the top. This also does not violate the law of conservation of energy since no energy was destroyed in the process (as all the energy involved can be accounted for)</u>.
