Which of the following environments would not contain fossils

Biology
1 answer:
juin [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

as I know

Explanation:

<em>Igneous rocks, which form from cooling magma or lava, and metamorphic rocks, which have been altered by heat and pressure, are unlikely to contain fossils. The “soft” tissues of an organism, such as skin, muscles, and internal organs are typically not preserved as fossils.</em>

The passage indicates that compared with other functions of coloration in plants, camouflage in plants has A) provided scientist
stiks02 [169]

Question passage: This PASSAGE is adapted from “Rare Woodland Plant Uses‘Cryptic Coloration’ to Hide from Predators.” ©2009 byAmerican Journal of Botany, Inc.It is well known that some animal species usecamouflage to hide from predators. Individuals thatare able to blend in to their surroundings and avoidbeing eaten are able to survive longer, reproduce, andthus increase their fitness (pass along their genes tothe next generation) compared to those who standout more. This may seem like a good strategy, andfairly common in the animal kingdom, but who everheard of a plant doing the same thing?In plants, the use of coloration or pigmentation asa vital component of acquiring food (e.g.,photosynthesis) or as a means of attractingpollinators (e.g., flowers) has been well studied.However, variation in pigmentation as a means ofescaping predation has received little attention.Matthew Klooster from Harvard University andcolleagues empirically investigated whether the driedbracts (specialized leaves) on a rare woodland plant,Monotropsis odorata, might serve a similar purposeas the stripes on a tiger or the grey coloration of thewings of the peppered moth: namely, to hide.

The PASSAGE indicates that compared with other functions of coloration in plants, camouflage in plants has A) provided scientists with a deeper understanding of potential food sources. B) made use of a wider variety of distinctive shades of colors. C) proved to be a less effective defense against predators. D) been the subject of a smaller number of scientific investigations.

Answer: The correct option is C(proved to be a less effective defense against predators).

Explanation:

Adaptation is a means by which plants or animals modify their forms, structures, functions and behaviour in order to escape being harmed and survive in their environment. The special adaptations of organisms in a habitat enables them to live there successfully and reproduce. There are 3 types of adaptation which include:

--> structural adaptation,

--> adaptive coloration and

--> behavioural adaptations.

From the passage, the plant under study shows ADAPTIVE COLOURATION. Colour and colour pattern plays an important role in adaptations of plants. These occur due to the presence of pigments in cells of plants. Common pigments responsible for coloration in plants are:

--> chlorophyll: this gives green colour to plants that has chloroplasts in their cells.

--> Carotene and xanthophyll: this gives yellow to orange colour to plants that has chromoplasts in their cells.

From the passage, the use of coloration or pigmentation in the plant as a vital component of acquiring food (e.g.,photosynthesis) or as a means of attracting pollinators (e.g., flowers) has been well studied but it's use to escape from predation has received little attention. Therefore camouflage in plants has proved to be a less effective defense against predators.

If a sugar compound has 11 oxygen atoms, how many hydrogen atoms dose it contain
Charra [1.4K]
Since simple sugars follow the Cn(H2O)n formula, if you had 11 oxygen atoms, this would produce the simple sugar formula of C11H22O11. Therefore, there should be 22 hydrogen atoms.

What helps the recycling of nutrients in an ecosystem by consuming dead organic material
Anna007 [38]
Scavengers help break down or reduce organic material into smaller pieces. These smaller pieces are then eaten by decomposers. Decomposers eat dead materials and break them down into chemical parts. ... They break down the organic material and recycle it into the ecosystem as nutrients.
