Answer:
C. It will increase in size.
Explanation:
Answer:
limiting factor
Explanation:
In an ecosystem, certain factors hinder the growth or abundance of the population of organisms. These factors are called LIMITING FACTORS. Limiting factors, which can be biotic, food, drought, predation, disease etc, are factors that inhibits a population of organism from becoming enlarged. There are two types of limiting factors viz: density dependent (depends on size) and density independent (not dependent on size).
This is the case of a drought that dries up the stream that inhabits a population of salamanders. The drought causes the unavailability of water, which will ultimately have an effect on the growth of the salamander population. Hence, the DROUGHT is considered a LIMITING FACTOR.
Answer:
The correct option is A
Explanation:
To determine if water temperature has an effect on weathering of sedimentary rocks, different number (perhaps three) of identical sedimentary rocks should be obtained and then individually placed in different water temperatures (with at least one of the "water volumes" used for each having a temperature close to the room temperature so as to be used as the control).
Thus, each of the identical sedimentary rock can be broken into three and placed individually; as in one part of the rock in 20 °C of water (control), another part of the rock in 40 °C and another in 60 °C of water.
This above procedure should be repeated for the remaining two other identical sedimentary rock to confirm if there is any effect.
