Answer:

Explanation:

The flatworms are acoelomate organisms that include many free-living and parasitic forms. Most of the flatworms are classified in the superphylum Lophotrochozoa, which also includes the mollusks and annelids. The Platyhelminthes consist of two lineages: the Catenulida and the Rhabditophora. The Catenulida, or “chain worms” is a small clade of just over 100 species. These worms typically reproduce asexually by budding. However, the offspring do not fully detach from the parents and therefore resemble a chain in appearance. All of the remaining flatworms discussed here are part of the Rhabditophora. Many flatworms are parasitic, including important parasites of humans. Flatworms have three embryonic tissue layers that give rise to surfaces that cover tissues (from ectoderm), internal tissues (from mesoderm), and line the digestive system (from endoderm). The epidermal tissue is a single layer cells or a layer of fused cells (syncytium) that covers a layer of circular muscle above a layer of longitudinal muscle. The mesodermal tissues include mesenchymal cells that contain collagen and support secretory cells that secrete mucus and other materials at the surface. The flatworms are acoelomates, so their bodies are solid between the outer surface and the cavity of the digestive system.

The given statement is True.

The transport process that does not requires the consumption of ATP molecules is called as passive transport. The movement of solute molecules along the concentration gradient (from higher concentration to lower concentration) is called diffusion. This process does not requires ATP for the movement of molecules from one place to another.

The diagram below shows the stump of a tree whose root grew into a small crack in bedrock and split the rock apart.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Physical Weathering

Explanation:

As per the given conditions in the question, the primary effect is mechanical action which is also known as a physical weathering. During mechanical action, a rock is disintegrated into the smaller pieces. In the given statement, the root of tree would grow in the crack and try to develop a strong network to get nutrients necessary for tha tree growth. Thus, the root would exert a pressure in the crack to make more space for its growth and development (root network). This is primarily a mechanical action and an example of physical weathering.
