Hello i need help with this it’s just short (The subject is science and Im sorry if i got the subject wrong from the above) Than
k you in advance <3 1. Forest ecosystems provide all of the following functions EXCEPT;
a. producing oxygen
b. controlling soil erosion
c. removing carbon from the atmosphere
d. lowering the biodiversity of the plant
2. Extinction is a natural process that occurs when the last member of a species does. Which of the following correctly arranges the mass extinction events from earliest to latest?
a. Cretaceous-Tertiary, Ordovician-Silurian, Late Devonian, Permian-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic
b. Late Devonian, Cretaceous-Tertiary, Ordovician-Silurian, Permian-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic
c. Ordovician-Silurian, Late Devonian, Permian-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic, Cretaceous-Tertiary
d. Ordovician-Silurian, Permian-Triassic, Triassic-Jurassic, Late Devonian, Cretaceous-Tertiary
3. Which contributes the most biodiversity loss?
a. habitat destruction b. pollution
c. invasive species d. population growth
4. Extinction can be caused by a Natural Phenomenon such as storm, flash floods, or Anthropogenic (Human made). Which of the following is believed to be the major and most impactful anthropogenic cause of extinction?
a. habitat destruction b. overpopulation
c. overexploitation d. pollution
5. Which of the following is not a benefit that tress can provide?
a. They can trap sediments and runoffs that help improve water quality.
b. They prevent the excessive warming of the planet by sequestering Carbon dioxide.
c. They serve as filters that rid the air of harmful pollutants and toxic gases.
d. None of the above.
3.Habitat loss from exploitation of resources, agricultural conversion, and urbanization is the largest factor contributing to the loss of biodiversity. The consequent fragmentation of habitat results in small isolated patches of land that cannot maintain populations of species into the future.
4.It is currently the biggest cause of current extinctions. Deforestation has killed off more species than we can count.
5. Im not sure.
It may be ans c. As Trees absorb toxic chemicals through their stomata, or 'pores', effectively filtering chemicals from the air.
The environment includes abiotic (nonliving) and biotic (living) factors. An ecosystem consists of all the biotic and abiotic factors in an area and their interactions
A classroom desktop is the least likely to grow bacteria because it is a relatively clean surface. The armpit of a human and a warm freshwater mud puddle are a more suitable habitat for bacteria because they are warm, and provide a relatively safe environment for them
The answer is D. Coral reefs are built from stony corals, which in turn consist of polyps that cluster in groups. The polyps belong to a group of animals known as Cnidaria, which also includes sea anemones and jellyfish. Unlike sea anemones, corals secrete hard carbonate exoskeletons which support and protect the coral polyps. Most reefs grow best in warm, shallow, clear, sunny and agitated water. @wiki Hope this helps and if your feeling generous give it a rate, thanks and brainliest because it would really help me get virtuoso and I would appreciate it ;)
