Tropical rainforests have high species richness of trees. Which of the following statements provides the MOST reasonable explana
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The MOST reasonable explanation is that<em> animals have diversified into the vast number of niches provided by tree diversity</em>.

Explanation:

The tropical rainforest as a biome is located in areas near the equator, where precipitations are abundant and the average temperature is elevated most of the year. As a result of the climatic conditions, this biome gives shelter to a huge number of living organisms. Also, the canopy structure provides many refuges for plants and animals and is an important source of food. It also favors interactions between species. For example, there are too many plant species that live in trees, such as bromeliads,  and at the same time they provide refuge to other small animals, like frogs.

There are also too many species in the rainforest that have not been discovered yet.

The Hawaiian Islands are home to many endangered species. Why do you think the Hawaii Department of Agriculture is so strict abo
PtichkaEL [24]

The correct answer is C. It is so strict because a foreign species could compete with a native species and drive it to extinction.

The Hawaiian islands are one of the geographical isolated islands which faces the problem of the invasive species affecting the biodiversity of the island negatively.

The foreign species is equipped better to survive in the Hawaiian habitat and competes with the native species for the resources and food. The interaction and competition of the foreign species in the Hawaiian environment and habitat limits the resources for native species which increases the chance of the native species getting endangered.

The Hawaii Invasive Species Council along with other bodies such as department of agriculture, department of business and economic development, private and other government and non-government bodies have taken initiatives towards eradication of invasive species by strict laws.

Associations detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity.
Musya8 [376]

Associations that were detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity is shown below;

  • There was a regular, positive associations that between diversity and NDVI sd in regards to  mouth microbiome.
  • There was a constant, significant, and a negative associations that was said to exist between percent grassland and that of the diversity of the nose microbiome.

<h3>What are the other result?</h3>

Further result from the study of Amber L. Pearson<em> et al.,</em> (2020) reveal that the outcome for the mouth microbiome, she shows that a little effect of percent trees was seen on diversity and Clay loam soil was said to be negatively and positively associated or linked with rectum microbiome diversity, when liken to loam soil.

The study reveals that  no potential indicator taxon among NDVI quartiles was found and further research is needed.

What are the 5 functions of nematodes in the soil
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Nematodes are wormlike organisms which can be seen with naked eye, live in water-filled pore spaces in the soil. Nematodes are in large number in the upper soil layers where organic matter, plant roots, and other resources are most abundant.

The functions of nematodes:

  • Free-living nematodes decompose organic material into nutrients and cycled them in the soil by feeding on some bacteria and fungi.
  • Nematodes help in distributing bacteria and fungi through the soil and along roots by carrying live and dormant microbes.
  • They used as food for higher predators, soil microorthropodes.
  • They eat disease-causing organisms, thus suppress their growth.
  • They acts as potential bio- control agents.
