quester [9]

Answer:

B. grass growing on a newly formed dune

Explanation:

The primary succession is a process that occurs on newly formed environments. In this case, we have a newly formed dune. The dune is consisted only of sand, and it has no vegetation on it. If a grass manages to grow on the dune, than it will be a pioneer species as there are no other species present, thus it will start the primary succession on the dune. As the grass spreads out, it will create more and more biomass, as well as releasing certain chemicals in the dune, thus starting to create a soil, which in turn will provide conditions for more species to move in and start the second succession.

In a cladogram, when does a group of organisms branch off?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

A cladogram is a visual representation of the relationships between organisms and also shows how organisms evolved from common ancestors. <em><u>Points where organisms branch off are called </u></em><em><u>nodes </u></em><em><u>and these nodes branch off show the last common ancestor among the organisms.</u></em>After each node, the line moves forward, which indicates where the organisms diverge. This means at this point, the organisms evolved traits that separates them from the common ancestor.
