Answer:

Temperature and amount of precipitation is important in the type of animals found in certain climatic conditions.

Amount of precipitation (rainfall) promotes the growth of green grass . This makes herbivores such as deer, zebra, antelope etc to be present in such an environment. This is due to the availability of food.

Plants found in this region are usually tall and mostly green due to the amount of rainfall.They have no special adaptation for water conservation

In climates where there is little or no water. There is little or absence of herbivores and there is presence of some animals insects adapted

for such environment. Plants in this region have adaptabilities such as spines to prevent loss of water.

The temperature can affect the animals and plants because if it gets to hot or to cold and the animals are not used the the temp it can kill the plants and animals. The amount of precipitation can affect the plants and animals by giving the plants more water and the animals more water and food as well

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

invasive species are a problem both in anthropogenically altered and natural environments

Explanation:

An invasive species can be defined as a non-native species introduced into a new environment which then becomes abundant. Only in the US, it is believed that there are approximately 4,000 invasive species (some examples include the feral pigs, grey squirrels, European rabbits, etc.). In general, invasive species have a negative impact on the ecosystem, especially by displacing native species and thereby altering the trophic chain. In anthropogenically altered environments (anthromes), human beings are considered to be an invasive species.

Answer: etiolation of plant growth in shade, with fast growing cell without chloroplasts. Out of shade, cell differentiate again to produce photosynthesising cells

Explanation: It is a subjective decision as to what is ‘best’. Good examples are plant responses to changes in the nutrient supply.

when soil nitrogen is depleted some plants, such as legumes, grow nodules on their roots, with cells that release chemical signals to attract nitogen fixing bacteria.

Lack of light induces etiolation in many plants. New cells elongate and develop without chloroplasts, with rapid cell division exhibiting gravitropism, extending upward. When they grow beyond the shade area, cell differentiation changes again, to produce photosynthesising cells.
