The statement that is not true is: A healthy ecosystem can support an unlimited number of life forms.
Any ecosystem has its limits. No matter is a healthy, in perfect shape, and very large ecosystem, there's always a limit as to how much life forms can the ecosystem support. If the number of life forms surpasses the ability of the ecosystem to support them, than the ecosystem will crash, be destroyed, and experience a lot of changes, with the death of lot of life forms involved in the process as well.
There isn't such thing as an ecosystem that has the ability to support an infinite number of life forms, there's only ecosystems that are able to support limited number of life forms.
The correct answer is - biomass from the decomposing grasses.
The Midwest is a region known for its highly fertile soil. The reason for this is that the weathered bedrock combines with huge amounts of biomass. The biomass is almost entirely form the grasses. The grasses grow naturally in this region and they dominate the landscape. They grow and die out relatively quickly, as most of those grasses are one season grasses. They manage to create very large amounts of biomass every year, and also they decompose very quickly. The grasses also are high in nutrients, so once decomposed, they give the soil a lot of nutrients as well, which makes it very fertile and suitable for agriculture.
Many sugar plantations were built in the northeast region of brazil. Brazil is a country that is considered as the largest sugarcane producer in the whole world. The weather in brazil is perfectly suited for the production of sugarcane. Brazil is also famous for the production of cocoa and cotton. The sugarcanes produced go to the factories where sugar is produced and exported to different parts of the world. In the northeast region of brazil oil exploration is also a part of the economy along with tourism. Tourists from different parts of the world come here.
Answer:
[a] varies in its characteristics according to local environmental circumstances
[b] becomes common within a species through natural selection
[d] tends to promote the well being of an organism in its natural or social environment
Explanation:
The adaptive traits in the living organisms have a simple basic role, that is to make the organism better suited for survival in its environment. The adaptive traits come in all sorts of different shapes, be it some that are manifested in the physical appearance or in the behavior of the organisms. Adaptive traits can be increased speed, prolonged neck, living in a groups, developing thorns and many more. This type of traits occur when the organisms face increased competition or when the environment in which they live starts to change, so in order for them to survive, they start to develop traits that will make them better suited for the new conditions and more competitive. The main principle through which the adaptive traits are transferred and rapidly increase in a population is through natural selection, as the organisms choose the ones that have advantageous traits for their mates, while they live aside the others.
