The correct answer is - B. The number and type of plants in an ecosystem determines the number and type of consumers that can live there.

The plants are producers. They are the basis of the ecosystems on Earth. By consuming the plants, the consumers are able to survive and thrive, thus the food chain develops further up to the predators that are consuming other consumers.

The number of plants and the type of plants determines what type and how many species of consumers can live somewhere. The more plants there are, the more food for the consumers, thus there will be more consumers. The higher the diversification of the plants, the higher the diversification of the consumers will be too, as every plant is unique and specialization for consuming it is needed, thus the consumers will evolve into new species in accordance to the food source.

What was an unintended negative environmental consequence of improved technology in agriculture?
Mumz [18]

The correct answer is B. Modern technology allowed for larger expanses of land to become cultivated, so farming took over many natural areas that were important for wildlife.

Explanation:

In the last decades, the creation of agricultural technology has increased the efficiency of growing crops. This means now, all the process is more efficient, which leads to more products to be sold and an increase in profit. However, the possibility of large scale agriculture has caused more land is used for this purpose. This often implies natural ecosystems such as forests are destroyed and the land of these ecosystems, which is usually rich in minerals, is used for extensive agriculture. This is a negative consequence of agricultural technology as natural areas important for wildlife are taken for human profit.

True [87]

Answer:

1. While Biology is the study of living things, living things themselves are made up of chemical composition. Our survival is dependant on the reactions taking place inside and outside the body. Hence, to understand living things, biologists needs a good understanding of chemistry.

2. 170 pm is the radius of a Carbon Atom.

3. The vast majority of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus

4. Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom. This is a tiny, dense region at the center of the atom. Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.

5. Neutrons are located with protons in the nucleus; they too exchange mesons with protons and with each other to form the strong nuclear force, but they do not have to overcome the repulsion from Coulomb forces since neutrons are not charged.
