Ans.

Gametophyte shows haploid, gamete-forming stage of plant's life cycle, while sporophyte shows diploid, spore-forming stage of plant's life cycle. In green algae, gametophytes and sporophytes are isomorphic (indistinguishable). In bryophytes, such as mosses, gametophyte shows dominant stage as it is most visible stage in their life-cycle. In vascular plants, such as ferns and seed plants, sporophytes show dominant stage.  

Thus, 'seed plants show briefest gametophyte stage' and 'mosses show longest gametophyte stage.'

Clear cutting has a similar effect as controlled burning of a forest. True False
zysi [14]

The correct answer is false and here is why:

Clear cutting refers to the cutting of trees, specifically all of the trees in one select area. Replanting is not done and this leads to deforestation.

Controlled burns have a completely different affect. They burn the under brush to help keep the soil rich with nutrients, plus they also help to prevent large crown fires that burn down whole forests from happening.

Clear cutting is a bad thing and controlled burns are a good limiter for a forest.

Byron’s car skidded across the rain-slicked road, into oncoming traffic. He was able to regain control and avoid an accident. As
andre [41]

Answer:

Parasympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

Parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) along with sympathetic nervous system (SNS) makes autonomic nervous system (ANS). ANS controls the functioning of internal processes like digestion rate, heart rate, respiratory rate etc. During a threat or stressful situation SNS is activated. It increases heart rate, respiratory rate and directs blood flow towards peripheral muscles as a part of "fight or flight response". When the situation becomes normal, PNS is activated which restores all the vitals as a part of "rest and digest" mechanism.

Since here Byron almost got into an accident, he was scared a lot due to which his SNS was activated. Eventually when he realized that he is out of danger, his PNS got activated which returned his heart rate and blood pressure to normal levels.
