What best explains the variation in tree heights in the topical rain forest

Biology
1 answer:
dem82 [27]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B. Competition for light and moisture

Explanation:

Plants grow towards sunlight which is necessary for photosynthesis, of which they utilize sunlight, carbondioxide, and moisture to manufacture their food. In the tropical rain forest, competition is intense among plants for sunlight and moisture.

The trees/plants that are able to get enough sunlight and moisture gain advantage over others as they grow bigger and taller, as the rest struggle to get some sunlight and moisture. The canopy of taller trees usually cut-off sunlight from teaching shorter trees, thereby making availability of sunlight to the shorter trees quite limited. As a result of this, we have variations of trees with different height in the tropical rainforest.

Which best exemplifies the concept of neuroplasticity?
KonstantinChe [14]
The correct answer is "the formation of new brain cell connections as the result of reading a book".

Usually, neuroplasticity is apparent in young children when the central nervous system has an abundance of neurons. This is always in the context of forming new brain cell connections or synapses that will lead the person to access the information quicker. This also exemplifies the principle of use and disuse when it comes to knowledge. 

The other choices concerns the skeletal system, cardiovascular system, and the endocrine/reproductive system; all of which do not have a relation with neuroplasticity.

a researcher wishes to know whether there is a significant difference in the number of knee injuries reported among four sports.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Chi-square analysis cannot be used to check for significant difference in the number of knee injuries among four sports.

Explanation:

The chi-square analysis is a statistical procedure that is used to test association between measured variables or goodness of fits of a set of measured variables to expected outcomes.

<em>In the case of testing for significant difference, chi-square analysis cannot be used as testing for significant difference in two or more means requires using t-test, analysis of variance, or any other relevant statistical procedure.</em>

To compare number of knee injuries reported among four sports for significant difference, the most suitable statistical procedure would be analysis of variance.

lord [1]

Answer: Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

The forests and phytoplankton are carbon sinks, which absorbs the green house gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis. The carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water are used as reactant in photosynthesis to yield carbohydrates and oxygen as products. Thus the carbon dioxide level in atmosphere decreases. This is necessary for controlling pollution in the environment and reducing the environmental temperature as carbon dioxide can make the environment warm.
