Answer:

Ballistochory. So it is called when the seeds are forcefully or explosively spread. The aim is to "throw" the seed from the parent plant as far as possible.

Explanation:

This is what is known by the violent and explosive dispersal of the seeds. The aim is to "throw" the seed from the parent plant as far as possible. (This works because the wind resistance is not high for seeds.)

Answer:

a theory cannot become a law

Explanation:

the difference between a scientific theory and a scientific law because a theory is an in depth explanation of an observed phenomenon. a law is a statement about an observed phenomenon or an unifying concept (i.e.: newtons law or gravity - no explanation on how it works or what it is just that it exists.)

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:1Zn+2HCl------1ZnCl2+1H2

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its salt solution.Thus zinc can easily lose electrons as compared to hydrogen and result in the formation of zinc chloride and hydrogen.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

What results when there is very heavy competition between two species??

BlackZzzverrR [31]

When there is heavy competition between two species these results may surface. First, even if there is just a little advantage of one species, the tendency is the best competitors will dominate the other. This may lead to the extinction of the weaker species. Another result is, competition may cause the traits of the competing species to evolve. This result is called character displacement. This is what happens when for instance the species live in the same area and have the same and common niche; the characteristics of the species evolve in order for them to minimize niche overlap. This is also for them not to have competitive exclusion. To add to that, when there is heavy competition, the finite resources will not be enough for all competitors who have all access to the resources. This may lead to very low survival rates.
