The complete question is :
The success of plants extending their range northward following glacial retreat is best determined by _____.
A) whether there is simultaneous migration of herbivores
B) their tolerance to shade
C) their seed dispersal rate
D) their size
Answer: The seed dispersal rate
Explanation:
The seed dispersal can be defined as the movement of the seeds away from the parent plant. The ability of the plant to extend is completely dependent on the ability of the plant to disperse its seeds.
Plants have very limited ability, they need vectors to carry its seed from one place to another.
The biotic and abiotic vector both are involved in carrying the seeds which helps in expansion of the trees.
hence, the correct answer is option C
Answer:
The yeast is no longer active, Climate conditions, too much liquid, Wrong type and amount of yeast, Not adding or using too little salt, Insufficient baking time and Wrong oven temperature.
Explanation:
The yeast is no longer active, Climate conditions, too much liquid, Wrong type and amount of yeast, Not adding or using too little salt, Insufficient baking time and Wrong oven temperature are the factors that could fail the process of dough rising. For rising of dough, the environmental conditions and materials that is used in dough must be present in optimum range or quantity.
C.
Biotic mean alive, so we can cut off the first 2 easily. Aquatic birds eat frogs, so that one is safe for now. A decrease in something parasitic usually helps the population, so D is out too. The only one left is C.
Answer:
C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
Explanation:
Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.
In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.
Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
