A limiting factor in ecology refers to the resources in the environmental conditions, which restrict the growth, distribution, or abundance of an organism or a population of organisms in an ecosystem.
In the given situation in Atacama Desert, water is a limiting factor as due to the scarcity of water the plants are having a tough time growing, which restricts the number of plants found in the desert.
Answer:
HERBACEOUS PLANTS• Support is provided by the turgidity of parenchyma & collenchyma cells & xylem tissues. Parenchyma cells are filled with water turgid• Collenchyma cells have unevenly thickened cellulose walls which provide support in stem & the midrib of the leaves.

<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is C. Annelids.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Annelids are the invertebrates that have segmented bodies.
The annelids or Phylum Annelida (also called ringed or segmented worms) are widely known for their characteristic of having segmented bodies.
These annelids contain largely segmented bodies with each segment having secondary subdivisions known as annuli which consists of elements of the different body systems which are essential for life, for instance the nervous system.
Answer:
Jennifer observes a weather map showing tomorrow's weather. She predicts that air will travel from the high pressure system to the low pressure system, causing wind. The wind will carry moisture since it is coming from the ocean.
Explanation:
Winds refers to the movement of air which are produced due to differences in air pressure.
These pressure differences are to uneven heating of the earth by the sun. Due to the uneven shape of the earth, regions around the equator receive a fairly consistent heating from the Sun. However, with increase in latitude north and south, there is more uneven heating of the earth's surface by the Sun. When air is heated, warm air rises up to the atmosphere. This produces a pressure difference and subsequently cold air sinks downward to replace it. This constant air movement results in winds. The winds generated moves from a high pressure system to a low pressure system. The greater the pressure difference, the greater the wind force.
When warm air from land rises, air from the ocean in to replace it. The wind coming from the ocean is moisture-laden, and results in precipation on land.
Answer:
Explanation:
Plants infected with white rot may have a cottony white or grey mass of fungal ... The disease can occur on all the vegetable alliums but tends to be more serious on garlic ... The fungus is an important pathogen on a number of non-allium crops ... a brown discoloration and rot, so that the shoot easily detaches from the base.
