Why is it beneficial to use textiles made from synthetic fibers
mestny [16]
Synthetic fabrics<span> are </span>textiles made<span> from man-</span>made fibers<span> rather than natural </span>fibers. Chemically produced fabrics<span> are </span>made<span> by joining monomers into polymers, through a process called polymerization. A </span>synthetic fabric<span>, when magnified, looks like plastic spun together.</span><span>

Natural fabrics, such as cotton, silk, and wool, are made from animals or plant based fibers. While synthetic are man made and produced entirely from chemicals to create fabrics. such as polyester, rayon, acrylic, and more. The benefits of using textiles made from synthetic fibers is that it saves the animals and plants that the fibers are based off of.

What are the factors that contributed to the success of pteridophyte as land plant
Anna35 [415]

Two factors contributed to the success of the pteridophytes: the extreme miniaturization of the gametophytic generation and an important development of the sporophytic generation (development of the tree forms).

Pteridophytes are a group of plants that peaked in the Carboniferous (-300 million years). It is the first great terrestrial plant civilization. These plants would have appeared in the Devonian -400 million years ago, perhaps from certain primitive terrestrial plants which, unlike bryophytes, would have favored the diploid generation on the haploid generation.

Particularly well adapted to terrestrial life, they have created, thanks to the development of tree forms, immense forests whose fossilization is at the origin of coal deposits.

Pteridophytes are at the origin of an evolutionary lineage based on the extreme miniaturization of gametophytic generation and an important development of sporophytic generation, leading to all tracheophytes including current flowering plants. Pteridophytes are well adapted to terrestrial life, however fertilization still requires the presence of water since male gametes are swimmers.

Pepsin is an enzyme found in the human stomach that breaks down protein. Pepsin will not break down starch.
Andre45 [30]

The statement which best explains why Pepsin will not break down starch is that enzymes only work for specific substrates.

<h3>What is an Enzyme?</h3>

This is referred to as a biological catalyst which helps to speed the rate of chemical reaction in the body by lowering the activation energy needed to start it up. it is also proteinous and can be denatured by heat and other substance such as chemicals.

They are also substrate specific which means they can't act on any type of substance. For example enzyme such as amylase acts on only starch while pepsin acts on only protein.

Which of the following is not an example of an abiotic factor?
brilliants [131]
Since we can't see your choices we can only do so much to help you unfortunately. However, the word abiotic means non living. So if it's saying which is NOT an example of an abiotic factor, then your answer would be the choice that has to do with living. For example, plants, animals, etc.
