Answer:

The correct answer is: Type I Incident type.

Explanation:

  • In the USA, in response to different types of emergency conditions, which may arise due to natural or environmental or man-made reasons, an Incident Management Team is set up.
  • The major purpose of this Incident Management Team is to take charge of the emergency situation and promptly act to provide immediate redress to the people in distress and restrict the spread of the cause for the emergency.
  • The various kinds of emergencies which are looked after by the Incident Management Team are, situations of fire, tornado, flood, earthquake, tsunami, leakage of poisonous and hazardous chemicals from chemical plants and others.
  • The Incident Management Team are divided into five categories depending upon the area of the region under their jurisdiction.
  • Type 5 Incident Management Team looks after the village and town level emergencies.
  • Type 4 Incident Management Team looks after the City and District level emergencies.
  • Type 3 Incident Management Team looks after the State and Metropolitan region level emergencies.
  • Type 2 Incident Management Team looks after small scale National and State level emergencies.
  • Type 1 Incident Management Team looks after large scale National and State level emergencies.
  • In the given question, both national and regional resources are deployed, Command and General Staff positions are activated and more than 500 persons are deployed per operational period to mitigate the emergency situation.
  • This is an example of Type 1 Incident Management Type.

Which of these gymnosperms are known to be important in maintaining the balance of carbon in an ecosystem?
CaHeK987 [17]

The correct answer is:     [D]:

___________________________________________________

                    →   " redwood tree forests " .

___________________________________________________

 <u>Note</u>:  Let us consider the other answer choices.

___________________________________________________

Choice:  [A]:  "garden flowering plants" ;  is incorrect  — since these are not generally considered to be part of a true or traditional "ecosystem" ; and especially since "garden flowering plants" are, in fact, "flowering plants" —  which means that they are "angiosperms" —  <em><u>Not</u></em>  "<em><u>gymnosperms</u></em><em> </em>".

      →  Rule out:  " Choice:  [A] " .

__________________________________________________

Choice:  [B]:  " ferns and liverworts " ; is incorrect — since <em><u>both</u></em>  ferns — as well as liverworts —<u><em> are Not  </em></u><u>"</u><u><em>gymnosperms </em></u>".  

          Liverworts are "bryophytes" {which lack true vascular tissue] ; and ferns are "pterophytes" ["seedless vascular plants"].

      →  Rule out:  " Choice:  [B] " .

___________________________________________________

Choice:  [C]: " mosses and horsetails "; is incorrect ;  since <em><u>both</u></em> mosses — as well as horsetails — <u><em>are Not  </em></u><u>"</u><u><em>gymnosperms </em></u>".   Mosses are "bryophytes" (see aforementioned) ; and horsetails are "non-seed bearing plants" that spread vegetatively [underground; by asexual reproduction — <em><u>and Not by seed</u></em><em> .</em>].

      →  Rule out:  " Choice:  [C] " .

__________________________________________________

Choice:  [D]: " redwood tree forests "  ;

               — is the only answer choice provided that is a "gymnosperm".    

             Furthermore, the "redwood tree" is a conifer (i.e. "coniferous; or, "cone-bearing" plant} that reproduces through seeds spread by "cone") — and all "conifers" are a type of "gymnosperm."  

            Furthermore, "redwood trees" grow large and tall, and redwood forest communities within an ecosystem; due to there size and presence, are:  "<em><u>known to be important in maintaining the balance of carbon in an ecosystem</u></em>."

__________________________________________________

 →  As such, the correct answer is:

__________________________________________________

 →  Answer choice:  [D]:  " redwood tree forests " .

__________________________________________________

Hope this helps!

    Best wishes to you in your academic endeavors

           — and within the "Brainly" community!
