Answer:

The correct answer is ''gravity.''

Explanation:

Tropisms are movements or changes in posture that a living being normally makes in response to a continuous environmental stimulus. Plants have hormones that respond to the gravitational impulse of our planet. Gravity deeply influences their growth and development (positive geotropism) and plants have been found to bend in response to gravity due to redistribution of the plant hormone auxin at the root tip, so that auxin is redistributed to the underside of a root that grows when it is rotated 90 degrees, the stems will still grow upward, away from the center of the Earth (negative geotropism), just as roots will always grow in the reverse direction (positive geotropism).

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The swim bladder is located in the body cavity and is derived from an outpocketing of the digestive tube. It contains gas (usually oxygen) and functions as a hydrostatic, or ballast, organ, enabling the fish to maintain its depth without floating upward or sinking.

What method would be best for scientists to use to determine the absolute age of a Precambrian igneous rock
GaryK [48]
One method I know of is comparing a sample of the rock to other samples which the scientist already knows the age of. I forgot what this method is called but I know it's used by lazy scientists that use other scientist findings like the age of a rock to compare to their own work

Mining companies bring workers from different places. This increases business in the town nearest to the mine.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

I believe this is C) ecosystem impact

Explanation:

The interactions between human population dynamics and the environment have often been viewed mechanistically. This review elucidates the complexities and contextual specificities of population-environment relationships in a number of domains. It explores the ways in which demographers and other social scientists have sought to understand the relationships among a full range of population dynamics (e.g., population size, growth, density, age and sex composition, migration, urbanization, vital rates) and environmental changes. The chapter briefly reviews a number of the theories for understanding population and the environment and then proceeds to provide a state-of-the-art review of studies that have examined population dynamics and their relationship to five environmental issue areas. The review concludes by relating population-environment research to emerging work on human-environment systems.
