Tons of rain can cause an ecosystem to flood, killing species that are not meant to withstand lots of water. Ocean temperature can slow down or speed up evaporation, affecting precipitation rates.

Answer:
Mammals undoubtedly play an important role in ecosystems by providing essential services such as seed dispersal, pollination and regulating insect populations, and reducing disease transmission [20–22] and there is some evidence that some groups act as indicators of general ecosystem health [23].
Explanation:
Answer: The genotype for the parent organism whose genotype is unknown is Ff.
Explanation: Let (F) represent the allele for purple which is dominant over (f) and (f) represent the allele for white.
The parent organism whose genotype is unknown is heterozygous for purple colour (Ff).
A cross between Ff and ff will produce four offsprings: two of which are Ff (heterozygous for purple colour) and two are ff (white).
Ff x ff = Ff, Ff, ff and ff.
Since (F) is dominant over (f), (Ff) will manifest as purple while (ff) will manifest as white. Therefore, half of the offsprings are purple while the other half are white.

Answer:
b) Reptiles, birds, and some mammals produce amniote eggs.
Explanation:
All the mammals produce amniotic eggs. An amniotic egg is an egg that has four extraembryonic membranes including amnion. Amnion is a fluid-filled sac that serves as a cushion and does not allow the egg to desiccate. Since mammals are land animals, they have amniotic eggs to prevent any damage to the embryo from desiccation and physical injury.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-E.
Explanation:
Chordae tendinae are the string-like structure in the heart which is composed of dense regular connective tissue called collagen and elastin proteins. They arise from the papillary muscles of the heart and branches out in the ventricle portion of the heart.
These play an important role in the closure of the AV valves to prevent the backward flow of the blood to the atria during ventricular contraction by holding cusps of the valve into the dome-shaped structure.
Thus, option-E is the correct answer.
