Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

B. Primary succession is the establishment of a community in an area with no soil, while secondary succession is the establishment of a new community in an existing ecosystem that was disturbed.

Explanation:

In Biology, ecological succession refers to changes in the structure of the populations of species that inhabit a specific area.

Primary succession starts when <u>species colonize new, previously inhabited areas with no soil.</u> The species that appear first are known as pioneer species that do not require a great amount of nutrients or soil, for example lichens.

Secondary succession refers to a situation in which <u>a previously inhabited area is re-colonized after a disturbance.</u> It begins with grasses, then followed by shrubs, and finally with trees before fauna species can also appear.

Answer:

Answer

+ 5.0

Answer: The NEGATIVE CONTROL is the

test tube that is filled with ONLY distilled

water.

Explanation:

A negative control of an experiment is

carried out alongside the main primary

experiment except that the treatment is

changed to something that is predicted

to have no result. In the negative

control, the student does not expect any

response. This would help the student

compare the result of a new experiment

against an already known existing results.

Analysing the experiment carried out

by the student, She filled two test tubes

with distilled water and placed a piece

of Elodea in one of the tubes, leaving

the other without a plant. The other test

tube that contains only distilled water is

the negative control because she wasn't

expecting any result from it. It's also

served as a control sample to the primary

experiment. This is observed as she

blew in each tube to add carbon dioxide,

which caused the distilled water to

become more acidic. This would help the

student know that the that experimental

results are valid and to ensure that time is

saved
