Answer:

The answer is d) They provide means by which air can enter the soil and reach the roots of plants.

Explanation:

The rodents have a great variety in terms of their shapes, sizes and weights, there are small ones such as the pygmy mouse (<em>Baiomys musculus</em>), even giant animals such as the capybara (<em>Hidrochaeris hydrochaeris</em>), they can have short, silky fur like the silky bag mouse ( <em>Perognathus flavus</em>) or long and hirsute hair like thorns like the prehensile tropical porcupine pig (<em>Coendu mexicanus</em>).

Rodents are very important organisms within ecosystems as they provide various benefits, an example of this is that many rodents scratch the ground for the construction of their burrows, soil aeration and water infiltration, which promotes growth of the plants, as well as introducing organic matter to the subsoil making them more fertile.

Stars within the halo move in random orbits that extend above and below the disk of the galaxy, while stars in the disk move in
Blizzard [7]
<span>Answer: Spherical Distribution Feedback: Correct The stars in the halo component have highly-inclined random orbits that orbit the center of our Galaxy. The stars within the halo would therefore make up a spherical distribution of stars surrounding the center of the Galaxy. In comparison, the disk stars move in elliptical orbits, which are nearly circular and are confined to the disk of the Galaxy. Disk stars therefore have very small inclinations and do not move above or below the plane of the Galactic disk.</span>
