In a graph of "coal reserves in the United States" vs. "time" ;
→ the "time" is the "independent variable" that belongs on the "x-axis" .
→ The quantity or amount of "coal reserves in the United States" is the "dependent variable" that belongs on the "y-axis" .
If the graph "slopes downward" ; this would indicate a "decrease" in the amount/quantity of "coal reserves" over "time" .
→ As the value of "x" increases — "time" increases — and; as "x" increases, the value of "y" {the amount/quantity of "coal reserves"} decreases.
→ This would be represented by a "downward sloping" graph;
→ and, among the answer choices given, could indicate that coal production:

→ "decreased" ;

→ which is: Answer choice: [B]: "decreased" .

Answer:
Hummingbird
Explanation:
Pollination is the process by which pollen grains are transferred from anther of a flower to stigma. It is a vital process required for reproduction of new plants.
Cardinal flower has two upper petals and three lower spreading petals. All the petals combine to form a tube at the base. Hence the flowers get a tubular shape. Insects can not enter the tubular flower easily so humming birds usually pollinate these flowers. The hummingbirds feeds on its nectar and pollinates the flower in the process.
The answer is the nasal cavity. It is a large air filled space above and behind the nose in the middle of the face, it is lined with hairs and mucus membrane. The function of the nasal cavity is to warm, moisturize, and filter air entering the body before it reaches the lungs.
