Field mustard is an annual plant that grows wild in many regions of the world. It has small yellow flowers and is pollinated by

insects. Field mustard has to flower and produce seeds to give rise to the next generation. Southern California experienced a severe drought between 2000 and 2004. Plants that flowered earlier reproduced. Those that flowered later died without producing seeds. This led to more early-flowering field mustard plants. This change in population characteristics took only a few generations.
How do you think scientists discovered that the flowering time of the field mustard had changed?

Answer:

Due to early flowering in the mustard plant.

Explanation:

The scientists discovered that the flowering time of the field mustard had changed by observing more mustard plants which produces earlier flowers. The behaviour of the mustard plant change due to the change that occur in the environmental conditions that leads to early flowering in mustard plant. If this early flowering occurs for more generation, then the mustard plant will adopt this type of behaviour in normal environmental conditions that experience by the mustard plant.

The correct answer is - They supply the energy needed for living processes.

Both the carbon and the nitrogen, are gases that are crucial for the survival of the organisms on the planet. They are mostly used by the producers in the ecosystems, as they need them to manage to perform their cycles, get nutrition, and of course energy. The producers are the basis of the ecosystems, so if they do not have a healthy supply of carbon and nitrogen, the ecosystems on the whole planet will collapse. The carbon and the nitrogen later go from one organism to another as the energy is transferred, and usually end up back into the atmosphere again.

8090 [49]
Reproductive isolating mechanisms are barriers which impeded mating (prezygotic) or prevent the hybrid from developing properly (postzygotic) but the overall effect is to cause speciation by making it difficult for two diverging species to share genes. So one kind of mechanical isolation could be the usage of contraceptives. As of temporal isolation, or behavioral isolation could be exemplified by people who suffer from diseases that cause separation (such as HIV or cancer). I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
