Although we think of land when we hear the word biome, there are also aquatic biomes. The abiotic factors that influence life fo

rms vary with location in the ocean. Oceanographers divide the ocean into five broad vertical zones as seen in the chart. Compare the abiotic characteristics of the five ocean zones. Which of these conclusions about life forms found in the zones is supported by the information in the chart?
A) Because of the severe abiotic conditions, there are no life forms found in the hadalpelagic zone.

B) The epipelagic zone is the only zone of the five zones where visible light and algae can be found.

C) The mesopelagic zone hosts a diverse zooplankton community instead of a phytoplankton or algae community and virtually no fish species.

D) Because there is no light in the abyssal zone, organisms feed on each other or the dead organic material, detritus, that falls into the abyssal zone from above.

Answer:

B) and D) are the correct answers

Explanation:

Hadalpelagic zone contains life such as amphipods , snailfishes  and cusk-eels.

Epipelagic zone is the ONLY zone where visible light and algae can be found.  Lower than that the amount of light is  insufficient for plants to carry out  photosynthesis.

The mesopelagic zone has a diverse biological community that includes unique organisms adapted to live in a low-light environment including fish like

the blobfish, bristlemouths or the tasselled anglerfish.

Produces lightning in a thunderstorm
balandron [24]

Answer:

Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges.

Brief summary of conservation of forests &amp; wildlife <br><br> least 10 page
wel

With the advent of industrialization, several trees have been cut at an alarming rate for raw materials and various other purposes. This felling of trees can be regulated by selective cutting, clear-cutting and shelterwood cutting.

Forest fires are one of the common causes of loss of forests. Sometimes the forest land is set on fire to make the land available for commercial purposes. Once cleared, there can be no vegetation. Natural forest fires are also responsible for the destruction of huge forest covers. Latest fire fighting techniques should be adopted to conserve the forest. However, forest fires are an important part of the ecosystem and it helps replenish nutrients in the soil from dead and decaying matter.

More trees should be planted to increase the forest cover. Trees should be selected according to the geographical conditions of a particular region and proper care should be taken during the growth of trees.

Prevention of exploitation of forestry and forest products is necessary for the conservation of forest.

The existing forests should be protected from diseases by spraying chemicals, antibiotics or development of pest-resistant strains of trees.
