Answer:
I think the answer is A.
Explanation:
Ponds and lakes are both inland bodies of freshwater that contain living creatures. Lakes are normally much deeper than ponds and have a larger surface area. ... All the water in a pond is in the photic zone, meaning ponds are shallow enough to allow sunlight to reach the bottom.
The yearly process known as thermal stratification. A pond that is thermally stratified simply means that there is a noticeable temperature gradient as the water gets deeper. You may have noticed this in summer while swimming.
Answer:
D)Lycophyta
Explanation:
The seedless vascular plants or the pteridophyte forms one phylum of the plant kingdom. The pteridophyte kingdom can be classified into three groups: the Sphenophytes, the pteridophytes and the Lycophytes.
The Lycophyte group contains about 1000 living species as it is the most primitive group of vascular plants.
The species is characterised by the presence of the microphyll like the Selaginella and Lycopodium.
The rhizoids of the gametophyte of these plants form the mycorrhizal association with the fungi.
Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
Answer:
The average trait value changed in one direction.(In this case, larger size)
Explanation:
In evolution a natural selection can be disruptive, directional or stabilizing
In stabilizing no extreme trait is favored hence provides intermediate values .
Disruptive selection both extreme traits are favored over the intermediate trait.
Directional, the enviroment will favor the survival of one trait hence a change in direction either towards the left or the right.
In the case of swallow cliff mortality, selection favored the larger size.
