---- *Well, since there is really no specific ecosystem that was asked about in the question, I will just list some common and basic abiotic factors found throughout most ecosystems (maybe you can match this with the ecosystem you are talking about).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abiotic factors: nonliving parts of an ecosystem
Some abiotic factors include: ROCKS, SOIL, AIR, SUN, WATER, ETC.
E Coli bacterium are about 2.0 micrometers in length and .25 to 1 micrometer in diameter. In comparison, a red blood cell is about 6 to 8 micrometers in diameter and a thickness that ranges from .8 to 1 micrometer in the center to 2 to 2.5 micrometers at the thickest point.
Answer:
C. Faults are younger than the youngest layer they cut through.
Explanation:
<em> A. Intrusive rock is older than the surrounding rock layers. </em>WRONG. The intrusive rocks are those that solidify underground and always form after the ones around them. So they are younger than the surrounding rocks.
<em>B. A fold is older than the oldest rock layer it contains. </em>WRONG. First, layers are set, and then, it occurs the folding. The folding is always younger than the involved layers.
<em>C. Faults are younger than the youngest layer they cut through.</em> RIGHT. A fault is a cut through different layers that occurs when the sedimentary rock breaks transversally. It occurs always after the sedimentary rock is already formed. So the fault is always younger than all the layers it cuts through.
D. Rock layers that have been overturned are oldest from the base to the surface. WRONG. If <u>overturned</u>, according to the superposition low, layers are oldest from the surface to the base. Superposition law states that during the sedimentary rock formation, the oldest layer is always that one at the bottom, while the younger layer is the higher one.
Answer: yes
Explanation: Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures. ... Some bacteria have a capsule outside the cell wall. Other structures are present in some prokaryotic species, but not in others.
The sun's energy drives various processes on earth. One of these processes is photosynthesis in plants whereby light energy is converted into chemical energy by forming carbohydrates from carbon dioxide plus water, which is a process which usually gives off oxygen which animals need to breathe. Another process driven by the sun's energy could be evaporation of water into the air to form water vapour and clouds which then precipitate when cooled off over mountains so is involved in the water cycle.
