Answer: A. Succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

Mount Saint Helens volcanic eruptions was an example of ecological succession after a catastrophic event that occurred in 1980. Charlie Crisafulli was a ecologists who visited the volcanic site along with his colleagues to collect ecological data. He noted the development of ecological relationships across the volcanic landmass. He documented the types, amounts and distribution of surviving organisms, which further took forward the responsibility of colonization in a destructed habitat. This was the example of secondary succession in which succession occurs after the natural calamity has disturbed the natural ecosystem. The species living there were able to colonize the landmass again after volcanic eruption. Therefore, the succession theory predicted exactly how Mount Saint Helens would recover.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

I believe the answer is 'She will have a high energy level due to the carbhohydrates in the bread group'

Explanation:

or The reason is that Carbs are sugars and sugars are known to give you energy if you don't overdo the carbs/sugars. Marianne had the tuna sandwich for lunch then pasta for dinner but for breakfast, she had eggs that are protein so she could have energy starting from breakfast then had lunch which carried on that energy.

Chargaff's rule states that the amounts of guanine and cytosine are roughly the same, and the amounts of adenine and thymine are

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The Chargaff's rules indicate that in the DNA of all living organisms the amount of adenine (A) should be equal to the amount of thymine (T), while the amount of guanine (G) should be equal to the amount of cytosine (C). These rules were useful to describe the structure of the double helix and also enable to describe base patterns that often are associated with specific gene regions (for example, promoter regions are rich in AT). Moreover, an imbalance in the 1:1 equilibrium ratio is associated with mutations that may cause diseases such as cancer.
