Here is the full question:

Bitter cassava is often preferred as a crop over sweet cassava because it produces higher yields (more pounds of cassava per hectare planted) in the presence of herbivores. Which of the statements poses a hypothetical relationship?

a. Plants produce chemicals to deter herbivores. Bitter cassava stores toxic compounds in its tissues. Bitter cassava should incur less damage, and therefore have higher yields.

b. Plants produce chemicals to deter herbivores. Bitter cassava stores toxic compounds in its roots. Because they are below ground, the roots are not eaten and the presence of toxic compounds does not contribute to higher yields.

c. Plants produce chemicals to deter herbivores. Bitter cassava expends energy on producing toxic compounds. The more toxic compounds a plant produces, the lower its yields.

d. Plants produce chemicals to deter herbivores. Bitter cassava requires additional nitrogen to make these compounds. The additional nitrogen that is used reduces the amount of nitrogen available for plant growth, and decreases yields.

Answer:

a. Plants produce chemicals to deter herbivores. Bitter cassava stores toxic compounds in its tissues. Bitter cassava should incur less damage, and therefore have higher yields.

Explanation:

Hypothetical relationship refers to an imaginary situation that signify a relationship between an object/subject with another object/subject. This hypothetical relationship tend to be unproven/not yet backed by scientific evidence.

Pay attention to the wording in option A

. . . .stores toxic compounds in its tissues. Bitter cassava<em><u> should</u></em> incur less damage . . .

That word indicates that the one who made the statement only assume that the cassava will receive less damage from the interaction. This can be used as an example of a hypothetical relationship.

what was the Columbian Exchange was all about including whom it was named after what goods were trade and what countries were in
Liono4ka [1.6K]
The Columbian Exchange was named after Christopher Columbus: the discovery of Americas from the point of view of the Old World is attributed to him.

It was an exchange of populations, species, technologies and ideas between the Old and the New World and the goods were of all sorts: diseases, spices, plant species: not all traded, some brought by mistake (such as diseases).

The involved territories were The land of America (not yet divided into countries) and the whole of Europe and some parts of Asia. One of the prouducts participating in it was cacao and now it's spread throughout the whole Old World and it originated in the new world

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Studies have shown that if we merely make a contact with something or someone, then we tend to be better attracted towards them. The excitement for that sight is very much as we do not get to see that sight again and again.

But if we are exposed to a scene again and again then it does not remain appealing to us. Generally, we won't be excited or happy to see that place every day. Everyday exposure will let us lose the worth of the place.
