<u>Answer</u>: Option A it decreases

<u>Explanation</u> :

The formula for gravitational force F is given by

F  = G M1*M2/ d^{2}

where, G is the gravitational constant

M1 and M2 is the mass of the two bodies.

d is the distnce between the two bodies.

  • Now according to the question,

M1 = 5 kg

M2= 10 kg

d = 10

If we put these values in the formula we get,

F = 6.67 * 10^{-11} * 5 *10 / 10^{2}

F = 3.335 * 10^{-11}

  • Now, if the d= 20

then the answer comes out to be 0.83375*10^{-11}

  • Thus,<em> we can see that the gravitational force decreases.</em>
  • We can also find the answer without any calculation from the fact that in the formula the force is<em> inversely proportiona</em>l to square of distance, thus as<em> the distance increases, the gravitational force decreases.</em>

An example of a pioneer species is
cricket20 [7]

The right answer is Lichen.

In ecology, a pioneer species is one of the first forms of life that colonize or recolonize a given ecological area.

Lichens are composite organisms resulting from a symbiosis between at least one heterotrophic fungus called mycobionte, representing 90% of all, and microscopic cells with chlorophyll (green algae or cyanobacteria autotrophic for carbon) called "photobionts" .
