Answer:

The correct answer would be C) stem.

Modified stems are used as storage organs in potato plant. They are also termed as stem tubers.

They are formed from thickened stolons or rhizomes.

They help in perennation and provide nutrients and energy for regrowth during the following growing season.

The underground tuber survives the winter until spring and help in regeneration of new shoots.

The new shoot uses the food stored in the tuber to grow.

What is the fifth type of interaction between species?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The five types of interactions between species are

1) Competition: In such a type of interaction, organisms interact by competing for resources such as water, food resources, shelter etc.

2) Predation: In such a type of interaction, organisms of a species known as predators feed on organisms of the other species known as prey. For example, a lion feeding on a deer.

3) Commensalism: In such a type of interaction, an organism of a species benefits from the other organisms and the other organisms neither gains benefit nor loss. For example, Tree frogs using plants for protecting themselves from predators.

4) Mutualism: In this type of interaction, both the organisms of different species gain benefit from each other. For example, insects carry pollen when they move from one plant to another and in turn they use plant as a source of food.

5) Parasitism: It is a type of interaction in which one organism benefits whereas the other one is harmed. For example, Malaria is caused by anopheles mosquito feeding on the blood of humans.

Are Purple loosestrife affecting the lives of humans? If so, how.
ohaa [14]
Purple loosestrife has the ability to severely decrease biodiversity wherever it grows due to its ability to displace many native plants. This not only affects the native plants themselves, but also any animal species which feed, nest, or take cover in wetland plants; the purple loosestrife forms such dense thickets that it is impossible for these animals to enter or use them. These animals are also displaced, then, by the loosestrife. Many of these animals, mostly birds, are highly valued aesthetically, and their disappearance is noticed by humans. On the other hand, though, humans also tend to find the loosestrife aesthetically pleasing; it was introduced as a decorative plant. Still, the damaging effect that the loosestrife has on ecosystem biodiversity is visible, and thus the plant offends any human values of conservation for the sake of conservation, a dominant cultural paradigm, and so the loosestrife is considered detrimental.
