The survival of some plants depends on their ability to have seeds transported to a favorable environment. Describe three differ
taurus [48]

Answer:

Different plants have different strategies for the dispersal of seeds. It dependents upon the environment in which they are growing. The three different ways of seed dispersal are:

1. Gravity: As, the fruits in the seeds gets ripen, they fall from the trees or plants because of the action of gravity acting on them. This mechanism is called as abscission. The seeds gets ejected or comes out of the fruit after degradation and decomposition of the fruit.

2. Wind and water: Wind and water are two agents which facilitates the transfer of seeds from one location to the other location.

3. Animals and birds: The animals and birds consume fruits along with seeds. They leave the seeds to different location, in the form of whole seed, partially consumed fruit or in the form of seed present in their biological waste.

Which of the following is an example of a learned response? OA A child figures out how to ride a bicycle. O B. An adult salmon i
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

I would say A. Learning to ride a bicycle is a process of getting on and falling off. You have no idea how to do it properly without practice. That's learned.

But look out for D. I'm not sure that that isn't instinctive. Somewhere along the line I think even a baby knows not to let his/her eyes be touched. Is it learned? It's close but A is a much better answer.

The salmon is instinctive. The plant doesn't learn to turn towards the sun. It does so because more food is produced.

PLEASE HELP! ANSWER CHOICES ARE BELOW!! :D Two chemist are trying to determine if their water sample is a mixture or pure substa
andreev551 [17]

The correct answer is: B. The water before filtration is a mixture because the particles could be physically separated.

A mixture is composed of more than one individual substances that can be separated using different methods (depending on the type of mixture). Methods  for the separation include filtration, evaporation, distillation and chromatography. The dirt stays behind in the filter paper (it becomes the residue) andthe water passes through the filter paper (it becomes the filtrate).

Approximately how far apart were north america and europe 200,000 years ago
Ne4ueva [31]

The correct answer is - 1,180 km.

North America and Europe move away from one another, though on the other end of the plates, the Eurasian and the North American plates are actually merging. Since the rate of moving away is 2 cm per year, and the current distance is 1,184 km between North America and Europe, the distance between them 200,000 years ago was 1,180 km.

To get to the result we only need to multiply the number of years with the annual movement

2 x 200,000 = 400,000

Then divide the result with 100,000, as that is how much cm are in one km

400,000 / 100,000 = 4

And we get 4 km, in this case 4 km less, thus the distance between the two, 200,000 years ago, was 1,180 km.
