Answer:

B. they cannot absorb carbon directly from the air.

Explanation:

Carbon cycle refers to the series of processes through which carbon is exchanged between living and non living components of the environment. During the carbon cycle, animal organisms feed on one another in order to obtain energy, a characteristics that makes them HETEROTROPHIC.

Unlike plants, animals cannot perform photosynthesis, which turns solar energy into biomass (carbon-based). Plants get their carbon source (CO2) directly from air via the stomata on their leaves. Animals, on the contrary, cannot get carbon this way, hence, they need to feed on other animals to get their carbon and energy source.

2- The tropical rainforest biome has four main characteristics: very high annual rainfall, high average temperatures, nutrient-poor soil, and high levels of biodiversity (species richness). Rainfall: The word “rainforest” implies that these are the some of the world's wettest ecosystems.

What are the different types of leaves that plants have?

dusya [7]

Answer:

There are two different types of leaves – simples leaves and compound leaves. The other types of leaves include acicular, linear, lanceolate, orbicular, elliptical, oblique, centric cordate, etc. They perform the function of photosynthesis and help in the removal of excess water from the aerial parts of the plant. The most obvious aspect to examine is the shape of the leaf. If it is an uninterrupted shape, it is simple. If the shape divides into smaller leaf sets the leaf is compound. Identifying plant leaves that are compound divides them into subsets.
