statement explains why after 10 years, nearly all the insects can tolerate the pesticide and survive? A.

How specialized structures increase the probability of successful reproduction in the plants, and factors that affect their grow
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Specialized structures such as

1. The brightly colored flowers attract insects that transfer pollen from the anther to the stigma of another plant.

2. The scented smell of flowers and their nectars also attract insect and other pollinators to them.

Explanation:

Reproduction refers to the way by which plants and animals produce offspring or their types. Pollination, which is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of the same or another flower is a vital way by which plants accomplish this.

Structures of plants such as their brightly colored flowers, the nectars produced by them, as well as their characteristic smells attract pollinators to them that, in turn, aid reproduction.

Despite the high-level of biodiversity, this biome has infertile soils, principally oxisols, to which the vegetation has roots s
irina [24]
The biome that has infertile soil, principally oxisols, to which the vegetation <span>has roots systems that capture nutrients from litter decay, is the tropical rainforest.

Soil types are highly variable in the tropics and are the result of a combination of several elements or variables which includes climate, vegetation, topographic position, parent material and also the soil age. Most of the tropical soils are described by leaching and poor nutrients. It also has two classifications: namely the ultisols and oxisols. Ultisols are known as well-weathered, acidic red clays soils. They are deficient primarily in major nutrients such as potassium and calcium. Oxisols are also an acidic type of tropical soil. However, they are well drained compared to the ultisols.

Subduction zones are found under which kind of plate
kvv77 [185]
High rates of volcanism, earthquakes, and mountain building are the sites of subduction zones. They occur in convergent boundaries found in tectonic plates of both oceanic and continental crusts. Subduction zones occur when one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate, sinking into the mantle as the plates converge again.
<span>
Regions that are within subduction zones experience an average rate of convergence of 2-8 centimeters per year. They are subject to many earthquakes because of the collisions that occur within the tectonic plates. </span>
