The correct answer is - c. sunlight.

The sunlight, or rather lack of it, is the biggest limiting factor for growth on the floor of the rainforests. The dense canopies of the higher trees block the sunlight to reach the floor of the rainforest, thus the plants growing in the shades are much smaller, have become specialized for life without or with very little sunlight. They are not able to compete with the trees that are very high to reach the upper parts of the forest and get direct sunlight, so they are on the floor, in the shades. In fact these plants have become so specialized to life without sunlight that if the big trees are removed and they are exposed to the sun they will not manage to survive.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. It is the sunlight that most likely to be a limiting factor for growth on the floor of a tropical rain forest since the trees block sunlight and without this it is impossible for plants to grow and develop.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The roads present between these villages.

Explanation:

The place which is present between these four villages is the place where roads can be constructed with available money so this place is the best location for the construction of road that connect all four villages to each other. Only those roads are constructed which is located between two villages with the available money because the money is not well enough for the construction of very big roads.

Have you ever wondered what makes weather? What causes it to snow, rain, get cold, or hot? Weather is simply the state of the at
Nataly_w [17]

1. The weather is made out of the conditions in the atmosphere at a particular place at a particular time, or rather at the moment. There are lot of different weather conditions, and they all depend on lot of different factors in order to occur. In order to have snowfall, there has to be cold air masses that will encounter humid air masses along the way, freeze the water vapor and produce snow. The rainfall occurs if there are warm and humid air masses that encounter either cold air masses, or some high mountain, that will cause condensation, and thus rainfall. The weather tends to be cold when there is cold air masses moving or forming into an area, while the hot weather is a consequence of the hot and dry air masses that form over the continents.

2. The weather is very hard to predict, even on the short term. The problem with the prediction of the weather is that it changes very quickly, and the main reason for that is that it is influenced by numerous factors, all of which can contribute to sharp changes in the weather conditions. Some of the factors that influence the weather on Earth are the planet's inclination, the planet's spinning around its own axis, global wind patterns, ocean currents, topography of the area, formation and movement of the air masses etc.

3. The ozone layer is a layer into another layer, the stratosphere. The ozone layer is extremely important, as it has the property that enables it to absorb very big amount of the ultraviolet radiation from the Sun. This layer is actually crucial for the survival for pretty much all organisms on Earth, as it stops the ultraviolet radiation from frying them. The depletion of the ozone layer is a serious problem, as it will cause larger portion of the ultraviolet to get to the surface, which will cause serious damage to most of the living organisms, including the humans, and maybe even result in mass dying out of the species if the depletion becomes too big.
