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.'

Which statement represents an abiotic environmental factor in an ecosystem?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

An example of an abiotic factor within an ecosystem is the air temperatures in the mountains.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, abiotic factors refer to all those non-living elements, which depend on chemical and physical elements. Water, soil, wind, temperature, climate, minerals and soil pH are abiotic elements.

In comparison to the other statements, the one that corresponds to an environmental abiotic factor is the air temperature in the mountains, describing even two factors, <u>air and temperature</u>.

<em>     The other alternatives, lion hunting the gazelle, flower growing on the vine or fish swimming in the lake represent </em><em>biotic</em><em> or living elements of an ecosystem.</em>

A new technique of observing Harris lines (between the diaphysis and epiphysis of long bones), by use of radiography, of bone is being used to postulate ancient diet of populations. This is especially used to determine stressful periods that were characterized by poor diet (deficiencies) by comparing carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios</span>
