Examine the graphs below that
steposvetlana [31]
  • <em>This is a biology question</em>

Answer:

B) die back as other larger plants begin to grow

Explanation:

The graphs which show ecological  succession taking place after a disturbance, has the grasses and mosses represented by "2". The curve tagged 2 represents the growth path of grasses and mosses after the disturbance.

From the graphs, we can see that after the disturbance, the growth of mosses and grasses starts on bare rocks and increases steadily as the slope of the curve rises. The curve tagged "2" begins to slope downwards, indicating a steady decline in the growth of mosses and grasses as other larger plants begin to emerge.

Therefore, from the graphs, we can infer that mosses and grasses grow over bare rock, and then <em>die back as other larger plants begin to grow. </em>Some of the grasses and mosses still survive but their growth is reduced in the presence of other larger plants and fast growing trees as they are unable to compete for space, nutrient and sunlight with them.

Which of the following is true about second-person point of view?
adoni [48]

Answer:One of the most striking features of Anthem is its use of language, especially the absence of the word "I." Characters refer to themselves using the first person plural "we" and not the first person singular "I." This use of language is often confusing, but must be understood if the book's meaning is to be clear.

How does the climactic ending turn the tables on Dees’s use of terms like “backward” and “heritage”? In the book Everyday Use by
ZanzabumX [31]

“Everyday use" by Alice Walker was set in the late 1960s or early 1970s, a tumultuous time when many African Americans were struggling to redefine and seize control of their social, cultural, and political identity in American society.

The time in which “Everyday Use” took place was an era when groups of all ideologies—some peaceful, some militant—arrived on scene. The Black Panthers and Black Muslims were groups created to resist what they saw as a white-oppressive society.

The novel is about an African-American Mama and her two daughters, Maggie and Dee. The plot surrounds The Quilts which are full of the family heritage. And the Mama wants to give two of the most important Quilts to Maggie while Dee wants to prevent the situation arguing that Maggie would not be careful enough to take care of the Quilts and they would get destroyed.

At the ending of the story Dee tell her sister that times are different now, that she would never know what she is missing if she stayed there living with their mother, that clinging to the "heritage" or acting as always she will never progress and do something of her life. That continuing to live in the same way would always make her go "backward" instead of forward.
