Answer: Natural Causes and Human Activities
Explanation:
The factors influencing kelp forest stability are diverse: kelp harvesting; grazing by fishes, sea urchins, and crustaceans; plant competition; storms; sedimentation; and pollution; global warming and the association with rising ocean temperatures.
When the continents separated, organisms were forced to be placed in different locations with different environmental conditions. In order to survive in their new environment, over time, various flora and fauna developed various body mechanisms to cope up. This brought up the speciation of flora and fauna.
Answer:
Option (3)
Explanation:
Springs (hot springs) and geysers are formed when the water from the interior of the earth are ejected into the earth's surface. In simple words, these are formed in the region where the groundwater and the ground surface intersects with each other.
The water obtained from springs can be cold or hot. Those that produce hot water are termed as hot-spring. These hot springs and geysers indicates the occurrence of volcanic activity. This water becomes hot due to the interaction with the magma at certain depths below the ground surface.
The geysers are also a type of hot-springs which produces hot water.
Thus, the correct answer is an option (3).
The correct answer is option D. She should place one flower in a similar container, but not pump carbon dioxide into it. She should also give each plant the same amount of water.
In the experiment, a control should be present to compare the effect of the variable in the experiment. In the control sample, all the parameters except the variable should be same as the experimental group. In this way, the comparison of the effect of variable can be easily done in an experiment.
In this case, the variable is amount of carbon dioxide the plant receives. So, Stella should include a control group by placing the plant in the same container and leave it on atmospheric carbon dioxide supply, no extra carbon dioxide should be pumped into it. Also, the amount of water she give to each plant should be the same to maintain the water level as constant.
The three types of symbiotic relationships are commensalism, mutualism, and parasitism.
Commensalism: One organism benefits from the symbiotic relationship while the other remains unaffected. Example: Barnacles and whales.
Mutualism: Both organisms benefit in the symbiotic relationship. Example: Humans and the bacteria in their digestive tract.
Parasitism: One organism in the symbiotic relationship benefits at the other organism's expense. Example: Fleas and dogs.
