How does removing trees affect nitrogen cycling in a forest ecosystem? A. After clearcutting, more soil nitrogen was exported vi

a runoff, ultimately accumulating in the lake. B. After clearcutting, plant uptake stopped and nitrogen accumulated in the soil. C. After clearcutting, plant uptake stopped but denitrification increased, limiting the flow of nitrogen from the soil to the lake. D. Clearcutting does not appear to affect nitrogen cycling; only acid rain does.

Answer:

B. After clearcutting, plant uptake stopped and nitrogen accumulated in the soil.

Explanation: Clear cutting leaves the soil bare and allows for direct penetration of sunlight this increases the soil temperature which favors the activity of soil microrganism. This microrganism activity increase the production of ammonium and nitrate hence the increase in soil Nitrogen level. Clearcutting then allows for accumulation of Nitrogen produce due to removal of plant or forest tree that could use up the Nitrogen produced.

d. What is the general term for organisms that live in soil and fallen leaves on the forest floor? What is one example of them?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Edaphon, Leaf litter and earthworm

Explanation:

  1. Edaphon is the general term used to reffer to the animals and plants present in the soil.
  2. On the other hand, there is not only one name for the fallen leaves on the forest floor. It could be either plant litter, leaf litter or even tree littler. Although the name suggests it is only leaves, this <u>plant litter</u> could include leaves, barks and twigs that can fall off a tree.
  3. The edaphon its made up of thousands of organisms including a huge number of bacteria, fungi, and arthropods. A good example of organisms living in the soil is an earthworm. Earthworms crawl through the soil feeding from it, digesting part of the organic material and fertilizing it with their excrement.

neonofarm [45]

Pollination occurs when pollen grains from the anther land on a stigma. After pollen grains land on the stigma, a pollen tube grows from the pollen grain, through the style, and into the ovary. Sperm cells inside the pollen grain travel down the pollen tube and into the ovary which contains the ovules.

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with __ and __
exis [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Bacteria provide genetic engineers with <u>_vector_ </u>and <u>_host_.</u>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Vector are vehicles or carriers which are used to carry the gene of interest. They are usually plasmids which are bacterial circular genome which can replicate independently.

Hence bacterial plasmids are used for the insertion of gene of interest and its transfer to the host cell.

As plasmids is taken from the bacteria, so mostly bacteria is used as the host for the gene of interest.
