Answer:
B. Cells in Alex’s body underwent mitosis to create new tissue
Explanation:
Mitosis is the cell division that forms two genetically identical daughter cells from one parent cell. It occurs in somatic cells and is responsible for the growth and development of individuals.
Alex gained the height as the cells in tissues of his body underwent the mitosis and produced new daughter cells. Repeated cycles of mitosis added a large number of new cells to his body to form new tissues in his body parts and caused an increase in his height.
Answer:
Both electromagnetic and mechanical waves are the movement of energy. They can be measured in the same ways too. The amplitude, frequency, and wavelength are ways to represent the measurements of waves. Additionally, they both have crests and troughs. Finally, both can be reflected, absorbed, or transmitted.
The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.
Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers. They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.
Some are photo-hetrotrophs, who use light as energy but cannot use carbon dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
A. Consumers cannot produce their own food source so they have to eat other animals.
C. Rhizobia bacteria "prepare" the atmospheric nitrogen and make it useful for the plant.
Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
Oil sticks to birds preventing them from flying. Whales and dolphins and other creatures that use blow holes can get oil into their respiratory system, making it difficult to breathe. Animals can also ingest the oil. This can be fatal and/or deadly in the short or long term.
