What type of evidence would you look for in a natural setting to indicate that there is competition taking placle among the plan
alexdok [17]

In a study, competition among plants are normal. Hence, all plants required a few basic elements like the light, water, nitrogen, or phosphorus, depending upon the species and the location. Evidence that can conclude that competition do really happen in plants is that some plants release toxins into the soil, in their dropped leaves which wipe out the competition for soil nutrients (such as weeds). And when it come an area with many trees in close proximity such as a forest, height is also indicative of competition for light.

Which is not a type of fault?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

A fault is defined as the fracture along which the blocks of rock move. This fracture can be linear or curved. The force of compression and tension acts on the rocks along this fracture, as a result of which, one of the block moves up or down relative to the other.

There are various types of fault such as -

(1) Normal fault- here the hanging wall moves down in comparison to the footwall.

(2) Thrust fault- here the hanging wall moves up in comparison to the footwall.

(3) transform fault- When two lithospheric plates slide past one another it forms a transform plate boundary. For example the San Andreas fault.

There is no such type of diagonal fault.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
