Answer:
c. They lack lignified vascular tissue
Explanation:
We know that forest consists of tall trees. In the tall trees the water and minerals are transported to the every part of tree through the lignified vasucular tissue. This tissue not only helps in transport within the tree but also provides some sort of mechanical strength due to the presence of lignin it its walls. On the other hand bryophytes are non-vascular plants which means they lack vascular tissue and thus a mechanism for long distnace transport of water and minerals is absent in them. So they can't be taller as a tree and thus can't form forest.
Answer:
during DNA replication
Explanation:
During DNA synthesis, when an incorrect nucleotide gets inserted in daughter strand of DNA, DNA polymerase goes back by one nucleotide pair, excises the mismatched nucleotide and repairs error. Thus, the DNA polymerase checks for mutations at the time of DNA replication
Answer:
Biologists measure the number of trophic levels in an ecosystem so as to check its stability and health.
Explanation:
Trophic levels are the feeding position in a food chain such as primary producers, consumers, etc. They are positions that an organisms occupies in a food chain (series of steps in which organisms transfer energy by eating or being eaten);- what it eats and what eats it.
Theoretically there is no any limit to the number of trophic levels in a food chain or number of organisms that live on each level.
