Plants do not grow near the old copper mine because of the excess copper deposited in them impairs cellular processes and inhibits plant growth.
What are micronutrients?
These are required by plants in much smaller quantities less than 1% of the dry weight but are necessary for growth and development. There are 7 essential plant nutrients like boron (B), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), and, chlorine (Cl).
Copper activates some enzymes in plants that are involved in lignin synthesis and are required in the process of photosynthesis.
Excess copper causes reduced seed germination, low shoot vigour, and lower iron availability. A deficiency of copper can lead to increased to susceptibility to diseases like ergot, which can cause significant loss in the yield.
Plants growing in the old copper mine have the excess deposition of copper in one place which affects the germination of seeds hence it is found difficult to grow in the old copper mine.
Plants can grow easily in a place that is further away from the old copper mine. Because there is a high concentration of copper dissolved in water in the soil, this helps the plant to grow by exhibiting the photosynthesis process.

#SPJ1
A lunar eclipse can last for a couple of hours and some minutes
The answer would be the last one because a deletion changes every codon configuration that follows it and thus changes the amino acid that codes for that codon
Stimulus: You get an injury.
Response: Your body begins to heal and recover.
Answer:
evolution
Explanation:
For example, scientists believe that monkeys have evolved to become humans.
This clearly has happened over many millions of years.
Monkeys look really different from humans (don't you think!?).
This was just a random example that came to my head.
Hope this helps.
