In biology, the biotic factors pertain to the living components of Earth while the abiotic factors are those non-living chemicals and physical factors. The only choice that is not an interaction between biotic and abiotic factors is the third choice, "C. male elk fighting over a female".
Answer:
1. sympathetic
2. parasympathetic
Explanation:
The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from adrenal medulla under emergency conditions. There is a series of physiological responses such as increased heart and breathing rate, an increased flow of blood to skeletal muscles, dilation of pupils, etc. These events helped Nasim to fight the stress conditions.
Once she was relieved, the parasympathetic system is activated that shut down the physiological responses generated by sympathetic division. It slows down the breathing and heart rate and triggers the digestion and absorption of nutrients to restore the energy level of cells.

Answer:
The correct answer is: (A).
Explanation:
- In the question, it is mentioned that the algae can grow under the conditions of "enough sunlight" and "enough nutrients".
- Sunlight reaches the algae, by first falling on the surface made up of ice and snow and then refracting from there into the top layer of the ice where the algae grows.
- However, the capability of both snow and ice to reflect sunlight is far more than that of refracting sunlight.
- Therefore, the amount of light received by the algae is similar in absence or presence of the layer of snow on the top layer of ice.
- However, on deposition of snow on the layer of the ice, the weight of the ice increases and it sinks below into sea water.
- This allows more nutrient rich sea water to percolate into the ice and reach the algae.
- The algae receive more nutrients from the sea water and hence is capable undergoing better metabolism and growth.
- Hence, more algae are produced under such a situation.
