SIZIF [17.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct option is <em>3. they break down rock into soil in which plants can grow</em>

Explanation:

When a disaster is such huge that even the soil and organic matter get removed from the place, then the succession that will occur in such kind of place will be termed as primary succession. For example, a volcanic eruption or an earthquake.

On the other hand, if after a disaster some of the organic matter remains on the land, then the succession that will occur will be termed as secondary succession. E.g a succession after fire

In primary succession, the pioneer species will be plants that require less soil such as the lichens. The lichens will break down the rocks into the soil and eventually new species of plants will start to grow on the land.

Mazyrski [523]
Mutations are spontaneous and occur at random however there are some mutagenic agents which increase the chance of this happening such as radiation exposure. If it is a point shift mutation then only a few bases on the dna sequence are changed so only changes a few of the amino acids in that chain (such as inversion of a base). If its a frame shift then the base sequence is altered so much so that every amino acid from after that changes (such as deletion of a base) which can create things such as cri-du-chat syndrome which results from a piece of chromosome 5 is missing. Hope this helps:)

aniked [119]
Alternation of generations is the fluctuation of the diploid and haploid stages in plants. The diploid stage occurs through mitosis while the haploid stage works through meisos and asexual reproduction. In vascular plants, the diploid stage produces seeds. In non-vascular plants, the haploid stage produces the spores.
