Answer:
This question lacks options, they are:
a)Cold forest
b)Tropical forest
c)Temperate forest
d)Cloud forest
e)Alpine forest
The answer is B. Tropical forest
Explanation:
Tropical forest is one of the forests found in nature. The tropical forest receives the best environmental conditions in terms of vegetation growth. Hence, it is said to contain the most diverse organisms in nature. This means that tropical forests holds more species of terrestrial organisms than any other forest or biome.
Therefore, tropical forests are believed to contain 50% of the Earth's terrestrial plants and animal species due to their biodiversity richness.

Answer: Fertilizers and pesticides contribute to runoff that goes into the water, causing habitat degradation.
Explanation:
Fertilizers and pesticides are the chemical formulations which are added to the agricultural field so as to enhance the growth of the crops and raising their yield. The runoff is the water erosion. In runoff water from any source such as rainwater, water from the snow melt and water from the river stream flows over the surface of soil. It remains unabsorbed within the soil. Such water flows with an appropriate speed and mixes with the water reservoir.
Thus according to the given situation, the fertilizers and pesticides along with the water runoff will be added to the water reservoir. As a result of this the increase in abundance of chemicals in the water source can make the water habitat unfit for the survival of aquatic animals due to contamination.
Answer:
The animal cell will take in water until it eventually swells or burst
Explanation:
Osmosis is an important phenomenon that drives the movement of water across membranes. It is defined as the movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration/low solute concentration to a region of low water concentration/high solute concentration across a semi-permeable membrane.
In this case, the animal cell with a molar concentration of 2.0M is placed in 0.0M and 1.0M sucrose solutions. This means that the cell is placed in an hypotonic solution (solution with low solute concentration), hence, water will move from the extracellular solution into the animal cell since the solute concentration in the cell is more. The animal cell will begin to swell and eventually burst.
