The answer is A: a flagship species.
Hope this helps :)
Dodder is a parasitic plant which has A. HAUSTORIAL ROOTS for support and absoption of nutrients from the host plant.
Dodder can not live alone. It grows from a seed and sprout from the ground but if it does not find a host within 10 days, it will die.
When the Dodder finds its host, it twines itself in a counter-clockwise direction around the stem of its host. The Dodder stem has bumps called "haustoria". These bumps are tightly pressed against the stem of the host plant and said bumps will eventually push their way inside the hosts' stem to pull the nutrients it needs to survive to the detriment of the host plant.
Dodder plant may be parasitic but it does not kill its own host instead it causes the growth of the host to be stunted.
Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high concentration area to a low concentration area.
Things that can go through a membrane are ions (charged), small polar molecules. Big molecules can't go through the membrane due to its large size and disrupting the membrane.
Passive transport is the movement of substances acrpss the cell membrane w/o the use of energy. Active transport needs energy to move substances across a cell membrane.
Answer:
Because it is only possible to be 100% sure that two species are closely related, in genetic terms, when the DNAs of these species can be analyzed. This analysis is only possible through molecular tests.
Explanation:
Molecular tests are bikini techniques that can analyze species at the molecular level, more specifically, these tests can deeply analyze the DNA (or RNA and proteins) of a species giving precise results on the molecule and allowing scientists to study it deep.
In studies, where the scientist wants to know how the species are genetically related, it is common for molecular tests to be introduced, as a way for the scientist to be 100% sure of the relationship between the species.
You need more context to the question, however I think I have it figured out.
Independent variable- various colors of light
dependent variable- The growth rate from each color
