Answer:
Explanation:
This is because ferns are vascular plants i.e they have vascular tissues which are xylem and phloems which help to conduct water and nutrients while mosses are non vascular plants.
2. Ferns sporophytes are differentiated into true leaves, stems and true roots while mosses lack true roots, stems and leaves.
Underground stems are modified part of plants that are derived from stem tissues which grow under the ground. Underground stems grow beneath the soil. Examples include Rhizomes, ginger, tubers e t.c.
Common colds are caused by viruses and antibiotics only work in bacteria. Antibiotics work by targeting the different replication processes and functional characteristics of bacteria. Virus on the other hand are only active once they have invaded something to use as a host. Therefore it is more difficult to target the mechanisms of viruses because they are usually dormant and have different organelles than of bacteria.
Answer:
The amount (number) of mycorrhizal fungi
Explanation:
In a scientific experiment/study, the independent variable is the variable that isn't changed by other variables, while the dependent variable is the variable that is being measured during the experimental procedure. The independent variable is manipulated by the researcher (in this case, the amount of mycorrhizal fungi), thereby affecting the dependent variable (in this case, grass growth). In consequence, a variable is dependent because it 'depends' on the independent variable.
