Answer:

D. Increased sunlight and increased nutrients will increase phytoplankton populations.

Explanation:

Both sunlight and nutrients are required by phytoplankton communities. We know that <u>phytoplanktons</u> are <u>primary producers</u> and they produce food via <u>photosynthetic activities</u>. To carry out photosynthesis, <u>presence of (inorganic) nutrients and sunlight is highly important</u>. In this process, energy is fixed in energy rich molecules such as glucose and organism multiply and/or gain biomass. A decrease in any of them will result into reduced photosynthesis and hence reduced phytoplankton population growth.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Earliest- gametophyte dominance, sporophyte dependence

Middle- sporophyte dominance, gametophyte independence

Recent-  sporophyte dominance, gametophyte dependence

Explanation:

The life cycle of plant alternates between the two phases: the haploid gametophyte which produces gametes and the diploid sporophyte which produces spores.  The evolution of land plants shows how these are dependent on each other in terms of the requirement of nutrition.

In bryophytes, the gametophyte is the dominant phase on which the sporophyte depended. Later in pteridophytes, the sporophyte became dominant which is present in the later evolved groups namely the gymnosperms and the angiosperms. The gametophyte was independent on the sporophyte but in angiosperms and gymnosperms, it is dependent.
